The site was clean, no trash and I made sure it stayed that way. I was visited once by the DNR to make sure I was the right person staying there. The guy was cool and I am glad they check. I have had to make people move before and it's not fun. Holiday weekends always! This is a great lake to camp on or just enjoy for the day if you don't like rustic camping.

Love the campsites here just as they are, just wish other campers would learn the rules. Bury your damn toilet paper, stop cutting live trees and walk the campsite before you leave and pack your trash out. Previous users failed at all 3 left us egg shells and trash all over and brought coons in as a result. Lots of downed and dead trees in the area, learn how to camp or stay at KOA.

Excellent campsite, super quiet place, good fishing.However, bring lots of repellent for Mosquitoes and black flies...I got over 100 bites the first 3 hours we were there.It was May, it may not be as bad at other times of the year, who knows, just be prepared.

My wife and I love getting back to our favorite Au Sable dispersed site as often as possible. It's a four-hour drive, but it's always worth it! The site is quiet and peaceful. We love visiting in the fall and seeing all of the changing colors.

The Au Sable river dispersed sites were amazing! We camped in mid-October and the colors and stars were beautiful. The power boat traffic was minimal and everyone we encountered was very kind and considerate. The Lumberman Monument Visitor Center and nearby Monument campgrounds were very nice. We can't wait to visit again soon!
