Northern Sites Campground
1 RV Site
Northern Sites Campground in Beaverton, Michigan, offers 1 primitive RV site on the Cedar River, with rigs accepted to 30 feet. A sandy beach, general store, dump station, showers, and pavilion serve a river camping property in Gladwin County's inland lake country.
The site is primitive, sized to 30 feet, with a fire pit and picnic table. Plan accordingly — no hookups at the site, so arrive fully self-contained with water and power, and use the dump station and bathhouse. The 30-foot cap rules out most modern coaches; this suits vans, small trailers, and truck campers. Contact the campground about additional site availability and any serviced options. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a pavilion handle the practical side.
The river and a sandy beach carry the recreation, with swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, water sports, and biking. Pets are welcome.
A primitive site on a river with a real bathhouse and store is a specific and increasingly rare combination — you get the quiet of unserviced camping without giving up hot water or coffee.
Gladwin County sits in the heart of Michigan's Lower Peninsula, a region of wooded uplands, small lakes, and an extensive snowmobile and ORV trail network that has served outdoor travelers for generations. The Cedar and Tittabawassee Rivers, Wixom Lake, and the Gladwin Field Trial Area are all close, with Houghton and Higgins Lakes an easy drive north.
Summer is the season in central Michigan, with fall color and snowmobile season drawing distinct off-peak waves. Reserve ahead for July and August, and arrive self-contained.
