One of our favorite campgrounds in Michigan’s UP. Blue ribbon trout streams nearby. The campground itself is rustic, some of the sites on the lake side are pretty slanted. Sometimes there is a campground host - very friendly couple. We make it here at least once a year.

What a great place, we paddled around, swam (no leaches!!!), watch an eagle grab a fish. There were lots of mosquitoes though.
There are 2 pit toilets, a boat launch, 2 pull through sites and then back-ins. We have a 34’ class A and we didn’t have any issues backing in, large and easy to navigate.
