GatherGrounds Resorts has successfully acquired The Oaks Campground, a 155-acre outdoor destination in Munith, Michigan, marking the start of a significant enhancement project aimed at improving the visitor experience. The property, located adjacent to the Waterloo State Recreation Area—the largest state park in Michigan's Lower Peninsula—offers direct access to extensive natural landscapes and outdoor activities. It is also situated just eight minutes from the public boat ramp at Portage Lake, an all-sports lake popular for boating and water sports.
Under the new management, GatherGrounds Resorts plans to revitalize approximately 120 acres of wooded riding and recreation trails, accommodating mountain biking, golf carts, horseback riding, and hiking. The beach area of the on-site swimming lake will be renovated with new lounge chairs and a sand volleyball court, and a Wibit inflatable waterpark will be installed to create a family-friendly attraction. The campground also features a second lake dedicated solely to fishing, equipped with multiple docks, as well as an on-site camp store offering firewood, ice, and scooped ice cream, and two bathhouses with showers and laundry facilities.
Future improvements include introducing more modern, family-oriented amenities and expanding weekend activities with a comprehensive schedule of events aimed at building community connections. GatherGrounds Resorts will keep guests and the local community informed with regular updates as planning progresses. The company welcomes returning campers and new visitors starting with the 2026 season. For more information, visit https://gathergroundsresorts.com/the-oaks-campground/.
