Ionia Equestrian Camping Update: The Ionia equestrian camping inventory on the MDNRA reservation system has been reconfigured and has just been made available. All previous equestrian campsite are again available to book for equestrian use. The only item that has not been changed yet is the on-line map that indicates the old "semi-modern" sites in yellow. Although the map coloring changes have been submitted, it will take a few days to implement that particular change in the system, so, the map color can be ignored for now. The site numbers are correct now for equestrian camping, the fees are correct so there was no compelling reason to delay this change.
Happy Trails!
