\"STW1<\/a>

STW1 Hop 6<\/p><\/div>\n

216 miles via I-96, I-69, I-94 and US 421. Cumulative tow miles: 1219. Truck miles: 438. Cumulative truck miles: 2014.<\/p>\n

This was a relatively easy hop in terms of navigation – just a few turns. However, there was heavy traffic for almost the entire route and the roads were very rough, as evidenced by one of the shades shaking loose. That is a first for us in 5 years of travel.<\/p>\n

\"Haas<\/a>

Haas Lake #3<\/p><\/div>Our home in New Hudson was the Haas Lake Campground<\/a>, a beautiful campground encompassing 4 lakes. It is huge. Our campsite was over a quarter mile from the office. But it was a very spacious pull-through that was a breeze to get into and out of. Our living room view was of pine trees and grass. Very nice.<\/p>\n

This campground probably had the highest ratio of open space to campsites of any campground we have seen. There was a huge open field in front of our site and another huge wooded field behind, ending at a pond that wasn’t included in the count of four lakes. All sites were spacious and the back-in sites on the lakes were absolutely wonderful, each with an unobstructed lake view. There were a lot of seasonal campers here. I can imagine that this would be a great way to escape Detroit on a weekend.<\/p>\n

Each lake had a beach and a swimming area, but I don’t think the campground had a pool. There were numerous playgrounds, but I didn’t see much else in the way of recreational facilities. They didn’t seem to offer a lot of other activities either, for children or adults. Seems like a park where you can hang out and enjoy the quiet. Yes, it was very quiet at night.<\/p>\n

We would return.<\/p>\n

This campground also gave us a new state, Michigan, on our map. Number 34.<\/p>\n
