This campground has the potential to be a jewel in the Chippewa National Forest crown. Unfortunately the powers that be have decided that a more natural look was to their presence. The campground is left in a natural state with grass almost 3 feet tall, except right where you pitch your tent or park your camper. There are some paths mowed to the out house and picnic area. The rest of the campground is waste deep grass , attracting mosquitoes and ticks. It is unsightly at best. I spoke with several forest service employees and all exclaimed the same dismay. There was no campground host, apparently it is tough to keep one there. I sure wish they would do something about it. I love to recommend it to other people, but not in its current condition.

They have stopped mowing the grass out there, as we were told by the park rangers. The mosquitos were so bad, we had to pack up and leave. This was our third summer in a row camping here and unfortunately, probably our last, unless they start mowing again.

Tons of mosquitoes in the morning and evening. Tons of biting flies during the middle of the day. Plentiful ticks in the grass. No fish caught from the dock. Shells that cut my kids' feet at the beach.

Cursed camping site. 0/5

A very nice place to boondock. Very clean.
