Labor Day weekend is by far the busiest and most exciting weekend of the year in the Straits of Mackinac area. You will want to make your reservations for your camp, cabin, cottage or room as early as possible. Most establishments only accept reservations for the whole weekend. Some hotels and campsites are filled for Labor Day before they open for the year just from their established return customers. Mackinaw Mill Creek Camping, because of its large size, is usually the last place to fill and accepts reservations usually right up to a few weeks before Labor Day. When regular campsites are full there is the option for sites with no table, no electric and rustic toilets (rally style) camping. Of course you have use of the all of the campground's modern facilities. You may just have to walk a ways further than the folks who got their reservations in early! Busses will pick you up at the campground and take you into town so you won't have to worry about parking. The busses start at the crack of dawn and stop running an hour or two before noon. Certificates are handed out to walkers upon completion of the walk that have numbers on the back that may match with numbers on shop windows in Mackinaw City. If they match - go on inside and claim your prize! Why do so many people want to be in Mackinaw City on Labor Day Weekend? It is the only day of the year that you are allowed to walk across the Mackinac Bridge. Once you have experienced its grandeur in person, gazed upon the azure blue Straits of Mackinac, gasped at the incredible height of this beautiful suspension bridge - you too will be hooked! Book your site or cabin now. |

I wanted to let you know my recent stay at
your camp was great! My friend and I came up from the Detroit area for
the Mackinac bridge walk and stayed in one of the new cabins. I was very
impressed as I am not a "camper" but just loved your campgrounds. My
friend liked them so much she made reservations before we checked out
for next Labor Day for her and her family! Everyone we had contact with
was friendly and very helpful. What a wonderful experience for this non
camper lol Thanks again! - J. Kovacs, Allen Park, MI We have been camping at Mackinaw Mill Creek Campground for the past 34 years over Labor Day week-end. We thought it time to write and tell you how much we appreciate the warm welcome and cleanliness each time we arrive. Even though it is extremely busy, the front office staff are patient and unhurried. The bathrooms are clean, and the campground is always immaculate. We've stayed in the wooded area every year and absolutely love it there. We appreciate the camp staff being vigilant about enforcing quiet hours and other rules that impact all of the campers well being. Your warm hospitality has given us many unforgettable moments with our children, grandchildren, and friends. - Towne Family, Brighton, MI |
