Great location along Lake Superior with big campsites. Our host was wonderful and provided games to the campground and even a Free Little Library.

Campground was well cared for, and hosts were friendly and thoughtful. A true gem of a campground in the national forest system.

We visited this rustic campground in Sept. 2020. We just loved this beautiful wooded setting close to the water's edge. This is a very peaceful and quiet place to relax and enjoy nature. Kathy and Pat. the campground hosts, keep the rest rooms and grounds very clean and they are very friendly and helpful! We'll definitely be coming here again.

1st let me say that my family loves this campground. The sites are amazing we couldn't ask for better primitive sites. However, the campground hosts have taken away some of the joy of staying here. They run their generator after hours and when asked about it they said, well we have work to do. Excuse me, you are in the campground I would think you have to abide by the rules. They run their golf cart and riding lawnmower up and down the camp road all day long. The noise is obnoxious. Also, we see signs on vacant sites that say "closed for maintenance"???? what maintenance? cleaning out the fire pit??? We used to leave firewood for the next campers, but have found out they pick it up and sell it. So much for paying it forward. We will never leave firewood here again. We will burn it all. Also when speaking with the hosts they told us if we didn't like the way they run the campground we should just go somewhere else! We come here because it is quiet, primitive and secluded. Its not a state park, I don't want it to be like a state park. those are ok, but not for me. I am concerned that they are going to ruin the campground. Speaking with other campers, they feel the same way. I just love it so much it is like home away from home for me but the noisy hosts are really trying to ruin that.

I need to go back here when I can stay longer! I was only there one night but it was one of the best campsites on our road trip. The campsite was enormous. Perfectly clean, sandy. There was a short path from our campsite to the beach. There was a self serve firewood shed, which was great for us as we arrived near sunset. There was a cupboard with some games and sand toys for the kids to borrow. I was amazed at how great this place was. We really didn't want to leave.
