Launching Life's Journeys - An RV Podcast

Launching Life's Journeys -- The Best County Campground In Northern MI

Heartland RVs Season 2 Episode 27

Will Miller and Maris Brennan from MARVAC are joining forces again today to interview Jacob Brown of the Otsego Lake County Park in Otsego County, Michigan. It’s the first county-owned campground we’ve featured, nestled in northern (lower) Michigan, near Gaylord and Johannesburg, and within an easy drive to the Mackinac Bridge. The waterfront campground features 80 RV-friendly sites with either 50- or 30-amp electric hookups and has fill and dump stations available. There are also four onsite cabins for anyone who doesn’t own an RV. Otsego Lake County Park Campground also offers a handful of seasonal camping sites in 30-day increments for anyone who wants to settle in and explore the area. 

 

In this episode, they discuss: 

 

●      Why the relatively shallow Otsego Lake is great for swimming, watersports, and fishing

●      Which beautiful national forests and state lands you’ll find in the surrounding areas 

●      What “Wah Wah Soo,” “Irontone” and “Libke” refer to and why campers will want to remember their names

●      The kinds of incredible events Otsego Lake County Park plans during the year – and what types of food trucks you’ll find there 

●      Plus, the number one destination in the area for your dogs, large or small
