Miller Lake Campground
We LOVE Miller Lake!!! Hopefully we will be back again this year for the fourth of July.......

Bittersweet
Bittersweet has enormous snow-making capacity and is consistently the first to open in SW Michigan. Their vertical is only 350 ft, but that's about 100 more than any other resort in SW Michigan. As noted, their lift system is impressive, particularly the high speed detachable quad, but lines can get a little long on late December weekends. Their terrain park has a good variety of boxes, jumps, etc. Very friendly people....Yea you guys rock i love the snow...Ahh yes, Bittersweet Ski Area... Michigan skiing at it's very best. The drops in these part of the country are not that impressive but I think Bittersweet makes the most of it. I do recommend this ski area....

Chief Noonday Lake

There isn't enough information for this campground, like prices etc. No pictures of the campground...

Barlow Lake
12 miles away
Bob Dibble again:  looking for the Palmer family and the Parker family that used to live at Barlow lake back in the 1950's.  If you are out there, please respond....I am 71 years old now and spent my 10 to 20 years old summers at Barlow lake.  Visited there a couple of years ago after not being there for 40 years and found an old friend still living there - Al (Alfie) Lewis  living at the old mill....

Buell Lake

If you see all-star water sports being performed, just know it's me....

Timber Ridge
16 miles away
It is not very big, but all of the employees are cool and you never have to wait in line to get on the lift. They sometimes seem to overestimate the amount of snow that they have also. I sometimes wonder if they actually measure the snowpiles that have been plowed in the parking lot instead of what is actually on the hill....

Campbell Lake
17 miles away
i like to fish this lake in the winter time...

Tri-ponds Family Camp Resort
17 miles away
Nice clean campground for young families, older kids might be bored except for using the pool.  (…) wireless internet is a pay service after 30 minutes (…).  Rates run $25 -$35 a night....Tri Ponds is a wonderful place! There are many fun things you can do at Tri Ponds!!There are many cemented paths through Tri Ponds for all you joggers, skaters, and skateboarders!!I've camped there all my life and it is an awesome place!...

Hampton Lake
17 miles away
Can the general public access the lake or is it private for Greenspire residents?...Hampton lake is a public lake in Portage south of Centre street, about a 1/3 of a mile east of US 131.  It does not have a public access, I'm not even sure gas powered boats are allowed, but they're not needed because the lake is not very big.  But it is spring fed and DNR stocked so it is very clean and very good fishing.  I live in Greenspire Apartments which is partially on the lake and my roommate and I fish Hampton lake often. Row boats are available to rent in the office. ...
