Mack Lake ORV Campground

How does a campground combine thrilling off-road adventures with serene lakeside relaxation? Mack Lake ORV Campground, located southeast of Mio in Michigan's Huron-Manistee National Forests, offers a unique blend of accessible ORV trailheads, scenic water activities, and tranquil surroundings. Its 175-acre namesake lake and proximity to extensive ORV trails make it a standout destination for campers seeking outdoor recreation and nature immersion.

This campground features 42 sites, spread across two distinct loops—Beaver and Warbler—with options for tents and RVs. Each site includes a picnic table, campfire ring, and lantern post, while shared amenities such as hand-pumped wells, vault toilets, and trash facilities ensure convenience. The embedded day-use area offers a sandy swimming area, carry-in boat access, and fishing opportunities for walleye, perch, and sunfish. Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate the rolling jack pine plains surrounding the lake, an excellent habitat for birdwatching and quiet reflection.

Conveniently set within a 30-minute drive of Mio, Mack Lake ORV Campground serves as a gateway to the Mack Lake ORV Trail System, known for its moderate and challenging routes like Maltby Hills and Bull Gap Hill Climb. The campground is a top choice for weekend getaways, family trips, or extended stays focused on outdoor excitement.
