Please let me know if you have any good places you know of that I can look up. Thanks

We just got back from the Rifle River Recreational area near Rose City. I am kinda picky about campgrounds, but this was a very nice one. It had tons of lakes. We stayed in the modern part of the campground, and they had a nice lake with a nice beach. They also have some very nice showers. There were also miles and miles and miles of trails with lots to see. I actually liked it so much I want to go back for a week next year. This place is huge, and if you drive around the rustic part of the campground you can check out a wooden overlook with beautiful views and also a view of a Bald Eagle nest with babies.
I put some pictures in the picture thread if you wanna take a look. I believe it was 124 miles from us and we live between Flint and Lansing.
