About this campground

Three sections of the White River are currently being study for inclusion as a National Scenic River. Currently the White River is designated Scenic by the State of Michigan. The White River is characterized by a primarily sand bottom with deep pockets of water and small sections of gravel bottom.  Paddlers find the river to be a steady and moderate float, with a meandering course. The forest on either side of the river is primarily stands of oak, maple and aspen hardwoods mixed with red and white pine. Wildlife abounds and fishing is a popular activity.  A large portion of the river flows through the White River Semi-Primitive Nonmotorized Area.
