Pickney rails to trails campground is a primitive campground with portapottys and a shower trailer. Lots of camps site available. NO power hookups or dump station available. Looks like they will be installing a dish washing station near the shower trailer. Multiple spots in the campground have water available to fill jugs or cook with. Located just next door is a large paintball field open to the public. My family and I had a great time camping here. The camp hosts are awesome people. Everything in town is within walking distance including a small bakery where everything is made in house even the doughnut filling. The rails to trail runs along side the campground. You can ride your bike all the way to Lake Michigan or to Detroit. Multiple small parks also in walking distance, very family friendly. We will definitely return next time we are in the area!!
Very peaceful, plenty of porta potties, hot showers, easy check-in, friendly, and accommodating.
What a great campground! So personal and right by everything you could want!
