Holly Recreation Area

[kthomas]

Looking to camp at HRA in August. Any site recommendations? I have never camped in Michigan before and am looking for a nice kid\pet friendly campground within 1-2 hours of Oxford. Please all advice is welcome!

We hold the Michigan Rally at Holly every year--it's a beautiful place! Trillium loop is very heavily wooded (and our loop of choice). Maple has open and partially shaded sites. Hickory sites can vary considerably--some are good, others are very rugged and I would not recommend them. If you are interested in site pics and descriptions, click on the in my profile. I can help you with all in the Trillium and Maple loops. I am familar with the others, but have not actually camped there.

Holly is a great all-around park. So much to do, I highly recommend your choice!

X2 ^^. Holly is a great park. But for something closer to Oxford you may want to look at Metamora-Hadley Rec Area http://www.michigandnr.com/parksandtrails/Details.aspx?id=472&type=SPRK
Not that much difference in drive time distance. But another choice for you!
