To you who made it what it is:

This letter is long overdue. When we first came through your entrance some ten years ago we had no idea what an influence your campground was destined to have on us. No idea of how often we would find ourselves thinking of all you have to offer here, and how fervently we'd wish to sample it all again. And then again. And we did. Often. Sometimes just for a night when enroute somewhere ... sometimes for a short weekend that business pressures allowed us to steal. Your campground became a "magic" name for us. I think it will always remain so. Even now we have moved our permanent home to Scottsdale, AZ. We've traveled and camped 36 of our states. . . as well as five the the Canadian provinces and we can say to you in all honesty that nowhere have we ever found a campground that even comes close to what you have here on the waters of the legend-haunted Straits. And we know, just from having been here so often over the years, that it didn't just "happen." It took a lot of hard work and TLC to create this unique park. Just as it takes a lot of work and TLC to preserve it. We personally thank you each time we drive in or out. I am sure there are hundreds of others who feel just as we do. Perhaps this letter can speak for all of them. Thanks again for being in the right place at the right time. Sincerely,

Jack & Beth P. Mackinaw Mill Creek Camping February 24, 2016
