Camp Au Sable offers one of the most extensive nature programs in North America. The Nature Center has many animal and bird mounts, diaramas, and various nature collections from all around the world. There is also a large tank stocked with a variety of freshwater fish.
At the center you can learn to identify many species of birds as you watch their feeding habits and communication skills with squirrels through a one-way window. The Nature Center also serves as a feeding station for white-tailed deer. They can be observed within six feet of their feeding block. Chipmunks will munch sunflower seeds directly from your hand. Our campers are truly blessed by all that the Nature Center has to offer.
Hartwick Pines State Park is nearby for additional nature appreciation.
For non-summer reservation information and availability, please call (989) 348-5491. Julia will be happy to help you plan your visit to Camp Au Sable.
