How to Find Michigan Campgrounds and RV Members by Region or Category on MARVAC

On michiganrvandcampgrounds.org, start from the "Find members by category" section on the home page. It splits into Michigan Campgrounds, Member Dealers, Member Manufacturers, and Member Services/Supplier. Within Michigan Campgrounds, you can narrow results by region: Northwest, Northeast, Southwest, Southeast, South Central, and Upper Peninsula, plus an Out of State option. Each member listing also shows service tags and its region, so you can confirm fit before visiting.

What the MARVAC site is for

MARVAC (Michigan RV and Campgrounds) is the official publication and member directory for camping and RVing in Michigan. Its members include Michigan campgrounds, RV dealers, RV manufacturers, and RV service providers. The site is a directory, not a booking engine: you use it to locate members, then contact them directly.

Find members by category

The home page presents a "Find members by category" block. The main categories are:

Select a category to see its member list. For campgrounds, the list is further divided by region.

Narrow campgrounds by region

Michigan Campgrounds is broken into these regions:

• Northwest Region
• Northeast Region
• Southwest Region
• Southeast Region
• South Central Region
• Upper Peninsula
• Out of State

Pick the region where you plan to camp. If your trip crosses regions, check each one separately — a single search does not combine them.

The site also offers a MARVAC Map with the same regional split (Northeast, Northwest, Southeast, Southwest, South Central, Upper Peninsula), useful if you prefer to browse geographically.

Read a member listing

Each member entry shows a name, a gallery, and tags. Tags tell you what the member does and where it is. For example:

• Camper Trailer Parts & Repair — tags include "Sells & Installs Hitches," "Sells Parts & Accessories," "Services All RVs," "Services Major Appliances," "Services Roof-Mount Air Conditioning," and "South Central Michigan Region."
• Base Camp Van Company — "Services, Southwest Michigan Region."
• DeHondt Storage, LLC — "Services, Southeast Michigan Region."

Use the region tag to confirm the member is near your route, and the service tags to confirm it handles your specific need (for example, roof-mount air conditioning repair rather than general service).

Practical tips

• Start broad, then narrow. Choose the category first, then the region. Going straight to a region without a category can bury service providers among campgrounds.
• Check the tag list, not just the name. A business name may not reveal that it sells hitches or services major appliances.
• Note the "Out of State" option if you camp near the Michigan border and want members outside the state.
• Request the print publication if you want the fold-out maps; the home page offers a "Request a Copy" and "View Online Version" option.
• Verify details directly. The directory lists members and tags; it does not show current rates, hours, or availability, so confirm with the member before you go.

Quick answer

To find a Michigan campground, go to "Find members by category" → Michigan Campgrounds → your region. To find a dealer, manufacturer, or service provider, choose that category instead, then use the region tag on each listing to confirm location.
