 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were looking for a clean, quiet campground with easy access and full hookups (50-amp) to serve as a base for visiting Grand Rapids and Holland, MI. Woodchip Campground delivered on all fronts and then some! We stayed mid-week in our Super C. Our site was tucked toward the back and framed by beautiful trees; it had a slight forward slope, but it was very easy to level. While we didn't stay long enough to take advantage of all the amenities, they clearly have a lot to offer. An added bonus for RVers like us who don't tow: there is a car rental location just two miles down the road, which made getting around exceptionally convenient. We would definitely stay here again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was one of the best designed and set up camp grounds we have been to. The pool being salt was a plus. The cleanest facilities. We attended the glow event and they really out did it! The prizes, gifts, and events were worth returning every year for! Staff was amazing and so kind. So many fun things to do and stay busy from food trucks, the pickle stands, to crafts, movies, scavenger hunts. The kids LOVED this place.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We chose to stay here for our grands soccer tourney in Byron, Caledonia and Middville.  Great location!  Grounds were very well kept and clean.  Pool area was well cared for.  Much like a hotel pool than some other RV park sites :).  Staff at the office was very polite and helpful.  We stayed in site C34. 50 amp FHU.  Plenty of room for our 35' TT.  Only downside was the showers in the bath house.  Only had shower stalls which made it cramped to dry off and dress in without getting wet.  Very minor inconvenience and will not stop us from making this place our go to when we come to the area.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A very clean, and quiet campground for being just outside a big city!  We stayed 2 nights and camped in the back row, I believe it was Row C. We had an RV and couldn’t have asked for a better setup!  We lived the pool!!
