Timberline Campground
This clean quiet wooded campground has been our destination for 7 years now. We use it as a pivot point for fishing, road trips, canoeing, gambling, antiqueing, and just laying back and enjoying the campground facilites. Beautiful Lake Michigan, a few miles away, is a big draw for us also. I feel that this campground has alowed us with our modest income to enjoy the best of life. As our sign says in our family room, 'We would rather be 'up north'' Thanks Timberline Campgournd....
