It was so nice chatting with you last night on the phone. These directions are FYI when you get closer to West Branch.
Please take exit 212 @ West Branch off I-75. Go left about 3/4 mile to Rau Rd. and turn left. Go about 1mile to the stop sign and turn right on Old M-76. Go almost 1 mile to Park entrance on your right. I will have you parked on site #12 as it is the closest 30amp I have to the Pavillion that you would like to use for your Family get together that we discussed. Bathhouses are right close to there as well. If you have any more questions please feel free to email or call me. Best wishes for a safe trip.
