Park is between an inland lake and Lake Superior. Amazing location and views. Facilities were excellent and well maintained - park staff were on top of things.

Park is between an inland lake and Lake Superior. Amazing location and views. Facilities were excellent and well maintained - park staff were on top of things. Sites themselves are only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars, as they’re small and close together. Definitely don’t get site 52 as it’s on a corner with roads on two sides. It was only spot open when we showed up without a reservation so we were happy to get it however. Modern bathrooms and showers were immaculately maintained. Shower power was a little disappointing. Very nice hosts who seem very engaged in the park. Would definitely recommend.

We love state parks and Michigan has some of the best. Muskallonge Lake is just a very short walk from Lake Superior, but relatively sheltered from the inclement weather that can appear in what seems like a matter of minutes.

We love state parks and Michigan has some of the best. Muskallonge Lake is just a very short walk from Lake Superior, but relatively sheltered from the inclement weather that can appear in what seems like a matter of minutes. The sites are grassy and well spaced but can be tricky to get a 27' trailer into. We stayed in Section 1, but after having explored the campsite in person might have chosen a site in Section 2 to accommodate our length. For those out-of-staters who are not used to this process, Michigan (like other Midwest states) requires a use permit (recreation passport) for each vehicle (in addition to the camp fee) which can be purchased online ahead of time or at the park registration. There are geese at this site, but they (nor their poop) was a problem for us during our late-August visit. Gorgeous views over Muskallonge Lake and Lake Superior is breathtaking. Agates can be found along the lakeshore if you know what you are looking for!! Very quiet, incredibly dark skies filled with stars and a couple of tremendous summer thunderstorms made for a memorable stay. The park is about 40 miles east of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore (via an unpaved road) and within easy reach of the Tahquamenon Falls, the Shipwreck Museum at Whitefish Point and the fascinating locks at Sault Ste. Marie. All-in-all - a winner.

Felt s little expensive for a state park plus you need a permit($9) on top of camp fee. Electric only but water and dump at CG. Has a beach and boat launch. Didn’t use restrooms but look nice.

Popular and remote SP CG in Mich's. UP. Many sites, water, electric and separate dump station. Sites border and inland lake, yet only fifty yards from Lake Superior's agate beaches. A greatplace for fishing, swimming, relaxing and wildlife observation.
A sand road travels the Lake's shoreline through remote forests along Superior's waterfront. Agate hunting, beach combing, sight seeing and day dreaming are a full day's activities. If the weather is nice it is great, if it is stormy it is even better. Just bring proper clothing. The woods are full of deer,bear, moose and partridge. The lake is full of trout, perch and musky. The skies are full of waterfowl and raptors.
The C/G is semi-wooded, grassy, well maintained and gret for family and/or sportsmen.
