The shop in town
Michigan Base Camp carries a 4.6 rating across 105 reviews and does refrigerator work along with awning repair. It stocks parts, which matters more than people think with fridges. Absorption units fail in specific ways, and the fix often hangs on a cooling unit, a control board or a burner that nobody has on the shelf. Weekend hours are listed, so a Saturday call is worth trying. Before you haul the rig over, ask whether they can look at it that day and whether the part you probably need is in stock. A fridge that will not cool on electric but runs fine on propane is a different job than one that is dead on both, and telling them which one you have saves a trip.
What to check first
Before you blame the fridge, walk the basics. Feel the outside vent for heat, check that the rig is level enough for an absorption unit to work, and confirm the breaker and the fuse at the board. Propane fridges need decent flame and clean burner tubes, and bugs love those tubes in Michigan summer. If the freezer is cold and the lower box is warm, you may have an airflow problem rather than a refrigerant one. A tech can sort it out, but knowing the symptoms narrows the conversation fast.
Nearby options
Seven more repair options sit within a reasonable drive of Mears, and the area averages 4.6 across the shops. That gives you fallback choices if the local one is booked out. Mobile techs are worth asking about, since a fridge diagnosis at your campsite beats towing a rig you cannot easily move. Call ahead in spring and early summer, when everyone in the region wants service at once, and ask each shop what kind of fridge work they actually take on.
