Members-only men's campground with 145 sites, a heated pool and a dance club between Lansing and Ann Arbor
CreekRidge is a private, membership-only campground for gay and bisexual men 21 and older on 60 wooded acres between Lansing and Ann Arbor, about an hour and a half from Detroit by the campground's own estimate. It opened in June 2016 and has grown to 145 sites: seasonal RV lots, primitive tent sites, tent sites with water and electric, and 30/50-amp RV sites laid out at roughly 40 by 50 feet with angled pull-ins for bigger rigs. Rentals are a rental RV, a standard and a deluxe cabin and a bunkhouse that sleeps six. Clothing is optional in designated areas, including the heated pool and the shower house, and standard clothing rules apply elsewhere. Membership is required for every guest: $25 the first year and $15 to renew in 2026. Day passes are $15 Monday to Thursday and $20 Friday to Sunday, bought in person before 5 PM, with an extended pass to 1 AM at $25 and a $10 surcharge on holiday and event weekends. 2026 nightly rates start at $15 per person for primitive tent camping and $55 for a trailer site, with cabins at $120 and $150. The camp has a gated office, a laundry, an updated shower house, Club Solitude for dancing, hiking trails on 20 of the acres and two fishing ponds. There is a themed weekend nearly every week from the end of April to mid-October, GLOW among them. Pets stay leashed, out of buildings and the pool area, and cost $25 extra in cabins.

We verified 32 LGBTQ+ campgrounds in the US, from 700-acre men's retreats in the Ozarks to a women-only resort in Michigan's Thumb. This guide covers every one we could verify from the campground's own website: who's welcome, what clothing optional means there, what you can sleep in, what it costs and when the season runs.
