Why Choose Portage Charter Bus for Summer Camp Transportation in Portage?
When you book with Portage Charter Bus, you get access to one of the largest and most versatile fleets in Michigan—plus a reservation team that answers the phone 24/7/365. We’ve handled camp transportation for programs of every size, from local day camps at Ramona Park to week-long resident camps on Gourdneck Lake and statewide events like Camporee and color war. Need a minibus for a counselor run into Kalamazoo? A 56-passenger coach to pick up campers at the airport? Multiple buses with luggage storage for an off-site trip? We do it all, and we do it on your schedule. You set the itinerary, and we make it happen—anywhere in Portage, anywhere in Michigan, anywhere in the Midwest.
Custom Shuttle Services Built Around Your Camp Schedule
No two camps run exactly alike—which is why cookie-cutter transportation solutions never work. At Portage Charter Bus, every bus rental is built to fit your exact needs: your people, your schedule, your budget. Tell us how many passengers you need to move, where they need to go, and when they need to be there, and we’ll put together a package that hits every mark. That might mean running a loop between cabins and the dining hall during meal times, shuttling day campers to a pickup point in downtown Portage, or sending a motorcoach to Detroit Metro Airport to meet an incoming flight. If you have multiple groups traveling at once—like separate boys’ and girls’ units or staggered session dates—we’ll coordinate vehicles so everyone gets where they need to go without bottlenecks or delays. And because camp schedules aren’t always set in stone, we build in the flexibility to adjust departure times, add extra stops, or extend service hours as needed. When you choose Portage Charter Bus, you get a transportation partner who works around your program—not the other way around.
Comfortable, Modern Buses With Room for Gear
Moving people is only half the battle—at camp, you also need to move their stuff. Our fleet includes vehicles of every size and configuration, so you never have to compromise on comfort or storage space. Full-size charter buses (up to 56 seats) come with undercarriage bays for duffel bags, sleeping bags, and sports equipment, plus overhead racks inside the cabin. Smaller minibuses (15–35 seats) are perfect for short hops around camp or into town, with room to stash backpacks and daypacks. Heading out on a backpacking trip or canoe expedition? Let us know what kind of gear you’ll be bringing—paddles, PFDs, tents—and we’ll make sure there’s room for everything. And because summer travel in Michigan can get hot, especially during July and August heatwaves, you’ll appreciate having a bus with powerful air conditioning, reclining seats, and tinted windows to keep everyone cool.

Portage Charter Bus is based in Portage and serves summer camps across Kalamazoo County, St. Joseph County, Van Buren County, and the entire Southwest Michigan region.

Need to get campers to or from Chicago, Detroit, Grand Rapids, or Indianapolis? We handle long-distance transfers on I-94, US-131, M-60, and more. No destination is too far or too remote—we’ve seen it all and can help you plan the most efficient route. If your camp runs trips to Lake Michigan beaches, local water parks, or downtown museums, we’ll get you there on time and stick to your schedule. When you need summer camp transportation in Michigan, you need Portage Charter Bus.
Affordable Pricing and Packages for Every Budget
We know that camp budgets are tight and every dollar counts. That’s why we work with you to get you a transportation solution that fits your finances without sacrificing quality. Our pricing is transparent and all-inclusive—you’ll get a full quote up front with no hidden fees or surprise charges at the end of the trip. Need to compare options? We’re happy to provide multiple packages with different vehicle sizes, trip lengths, or amenity levels so you can make the best choice for your program. Many camps offset the cost of charter buses by adding a transportation fee to tuition or partnering with other organizations for shared shuttles. Whatever your situation, we’ll help you run the numbers and get you a plan that works. And because we operate year-round, we offer discounted rates for preseason site visits, spring open houses, and fall retreat weekends. Affordable, reliable, and built around your budget—that’s why camps choose Portage Charter Bus.
