Brighton Bishop Lake Campground MI Review

Review: Bishop Lake Campground
Time: Early April still in winter conditions no water
Location: Brighton MI

Review: 4 thumbs up out of 5

Brighton Bishop Lake Campground is one of the few in Michigan that is open year round.  The Modern section of Brighton Bishop Lake Campground has 144 sites in two sections upper and lower section.  This review is for the month of March/April.  As of 5 April 2017 sites 108-144 in the lower section are the only ones open.  The dump station is open without water.  All sites in this area has electrical outlets with potable water outlets in several locations in the loop (potable water is currently off) no sewage connections available.
The area has received a lot of rain and several of the sites are pretty wet.  I stayed in site 126 which was high and dry like the majority of the sites.  All sites were grassy and somewhat level with plenty of space between you and your neighbors.  All the roads in the campground are paved with ample room for big rigs to maneuver through.  Most if not all of the sites are back in.
The restrooms and showers were open they are located in a heated building located on the lower loop within walking distance from all the camp sites.  There are showers accessible without entering the actual building and these were all closed. 

Bishop Lake Campground is part of Brighton Recreational Area during the main season they have modern campsite, rustic campsites, and cabins for rent.  There are several trails for hiking and mountain bike riding.  The campground fills up on the weekend and thins out on Sunday afternoon.  During the off season there are plenty of available sites but during the summer an advance registration would be a smart choice.
