June 12, 2013 - PRLog -- To kick off the 2013 camping season, Tripleblaze.com has officially released its list of the top 10 campgrounds in the state of Michigan, including three campgrounds that are also among the 25 most popular in the nation and one that is in the top 10. The best campgrounds list is compiled using visitors' ratings and reviews that have been collected continuously since 2005.

Clearly the water is a big draw for campers in the state of Michigan with 5 of the top 10 campgrounds located on or near the shores of Lakes Michigan (3), Huron (1), and Superior (1). The Upper Peninsula hosts 3 of the top 10 campgrounds in Michigan, offering outdoor enthusiasts the opportunity to get away from it all.  Ludington State Park is not only the most popular campground in Michigan but also the 4th most popular in the nation according to Tripleblaze.com.

"These are all places with a variety of activities on site and solid amenities for campers. Based on the reviews posted on Tripleblaze.com, Michiganders are very enthusiastic about enjoying the 311 state campgrounds we're tracking."
