I will be up there camping for the 7th year in a row. we will have a couple boats. there is a beach, sand dunes, and a bunch of fun.

i'ts just west of Oscoda, MI. Come on up and drink some beers.

[illMATTic]

it is nice, i have been up there the last 2 week ends. the park office told me they think they will be filled up by thursday night. i want to go back up for that weekend, but not sure i can swing leaving on thursday to get a gamping site.

[illMATTic]

we normaly have a couple friends go on thursday and save a couple.

[kct11]

thats nice. i was thinking about running up a night or 2 early and putting up a empty tent. since it is no reservations, and first come first serve.......that is about the only way i can guarantee a site for the weekend.

great place my mom lives up on Van Ettan Lake in Oscoda. I've been hanging out there since 1968 for vacations.

Looks like a great place to enjoy a weekend- unfortunately the 3 hour drive is a little daunting.
I actually didn't know that dunes that big existed on the east side of the state!

i took friday off, i might just take a day trip up there!!!

hopefully it wont be too crowded on friday..

oh well, a crowded lake is still better than a day at work............right?? :cheers

[illMATTic]
