Why Ypsilanti families camp at The Oaks
Ypsilanti families come out for open space and a slower pace: trails, a fishing lake, the Haehnle Bird Sanctuary on the campground’s border and a fire pit at every short-term site.
Check-in is no-wait so you drive straight to your site, short-term RV and tent sites have a fire pit and picnic table, and the camp store has groceries, ice, firewood, ice cream and bait. See the full list of amenities and activities.
