Great site

Absolutely spectacular campground. We stayed at the lower site 6. Garbage was changed regularly and the bathrooms were extremely tidy. We appreciated the built in lantern pole at our site and also the cooking grate available on the fire ring. The beach was just a very short walk from our site and we enjoyed looking up at the stars from there. The river running into the lake was just beautiful. Grand Marais is about 15 minutes from the campground and Sable Falls, Log Slide are just down the road from the campground. Be sure to bring enough wood as we found it difficult to find some local. Come prepared because Grand Marais is the closest place to purchase forgotten items. This place is gorgeous!

To much drive drive-through traffic

I appreciated the elevated pad for my tent. The fire ring was nice. The pole for my Coleman lantern put it over the top. I was late getting to the campsite and had to set up my tent in the dark. The elevated light from my lantern on the pole made it much more manageable.I enjoyed the rustic nature of the site with the toilet facilities just across the road. If I get the chance I'd love to visit again.

Loved hearing the lake from our tent!!Vault toilet was well maintained.Logslide overlook is just down the road, from the trailhead you only have to walk .2 miles to an epic view.

Quiet and close to the lake. Great hiking trails
@WilliamA169700 · Camped on Sep 13, 2025 at Campsite #U1
Both upper and lower loops of Hurricane River have their charm. We loved the large secluded campsite #1 on the upper loop. Many shady trees for hammocks and tarps, and a great level tent platform.

The camp host is a good person, I did have some issues getting water out of the well though. The black flies can be horrid in this campground as well on a warm day. Even in September
@DaleT9234082 · Camped on Sep 7, 2025 at Campsite #U7
Very nice sites with level tent pitching area. The sites are spread out more than average which gives some level of privacy. While the toilets are of the pit type they were well maintained and better than expected, we didnt have to wear gas masks. The campgrounds location is just an eighth of a mile from the Lake Superior shoreline and the shoreline trail. Its a lovely spot!
@StevenH4575591 · Camped on Sep 7, 2025 at Campsite #U2
We stayed at the upper loop. Lovely spacious wooded sites, well separated from others. Very quiet when we were there after labor day. Easy access to good trails. Great spot!
@AmandaF1656528 · Camped on Sep 4, 2025 at Campsite #L9
Although we input our specs for our travel trailer when reserving the site, it was a very tight fit. We also purposely reserved a generator site, making sure we were respectful of quiet hours but we were still harassed by the campground host for DAYTIME generator use AND wrongfully accused of running it all night. It was a nice area though and all in all, we did enjoy our stay.

The campsite is roomy and private. It is an easy walk to the beach and bathrooms. My only issue with the campsite (#1 lower level) is that when it rains, there are many deep puddles of water because of how the water runs into the campsite. However, the water drains relatively quickly (several hours after a downpour).
@BrittanyPAB75C · Camped on Aug 21, 2025 at Campsite #L12
We loved our stay at Hurricane River CG. It's right on Lake Superior, with a gorgeous beach (perfect for sunset!) and access to the North Country Trail. Close to Grand Marais & Munising, it was a great basecamp to explore all that Pictured Rocks has to offer. Our site was semi-private, shaded, had great hammock trees, and neighbors were respectful of quiet hours. Highly recommend!

We camped in site 4 and it was great!! Its a beautiful place to see!!

We had a really wonderful camping experience at Hurricane River campground. The campground host, Tom, was very helpful with information. The campsites were beautiful and well maintained, offering a lovely privacy. We felt very fortunate to have the ability to camp at Hurricane River. What a gorgeous site!

Awesome site. Beautiful beach.
@JamesC5011896 · Camped on Aug 4, 2025 at Campsite #U10
This campground was really nice and well kept and quiet. Very well spaced out and at times it felt like we were the only ones there. Site 10 is amazing but so are most of the other ones there too. I always like to walk the campground and see what the other sites look like and I would have been happy with any of them. This campground is about 20 minutes give or take from Grand Marais which has some basic needs, Munising is about an hour drive the other direction and offers a lot more so consider that. But we didnt mind that, most of what the Park has to offer is towards Munising and we spent most of time in that direction. Driving back towards the campground made it feel a lot more remote like dispersed camping but with water and toilet facilities. We absolutely loved this campground and spent a lot time just hanging out and enjoying the camp life.
@KristenC378064 · Camped on Aug 3, 2025 at Campsite #U5
We only stayed here 1 night, but loved how woodsy and private the sites were.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
