Event Description

Join Huron-Clinton Metroparks for two nights of rustic family camping at Kensington Metropark!

This special camping experience is available for families for one weekend only with special family-friendly activities planned. Enjoy an evening guided wildlife walk, fire-making basics, and family entertainment on Saturday evening, as well as plenty of time to explore the park on your own. Heavner Canoe Rental will offer kayaking and canoe opportunities throughout the day on Saturday (additional fee will be charged, must pre-register, spots are limited). Every person in your camping party will receive vouchers to the Kensington Splash ‘N’ Blast upon check-in for use during your stay to cool off and have some fun!

Camping is for tents only, with 55 rustic sites available. There is no water or electrical hook up. Pit toilets and flush toilets and running water sinks via a bathroom trailer will be available. Onsite water will be limited to hand pumps and potable water stations. Please bring your own drinking / dish water.

Places to Get Wet Near Ann Arbor

One of my daughter’s favorite parts of summer is the water – whether it’s swimming, water slides, splash parks, or just getting wet. Check out these Ann Arbor area Pools, Water Parks, and Splash Pads. Fortunately, there are a number of Ann Arbor Swimming Pools and more for kids to get wet and cool off this summer.
