Beach front campsites
Most of the campsites here need to be reserved-there are only a handful of first come. Whichever site you get there is beach front access with an actual sandy beach! Very little boat traffic, no homes on this lake, an excellent biking/hiking trail around the lake too. Bathrooms were cleaned daily…
Absolutely Gorgeous Stay
Well set up campground with about 25 sites on a loop with maybe 30 sites for $22/night. Each site on the lake side of the loop has their own access to a path along the lake and a spot to easily tie off a boat. There are paths off the loop so that campers on the other side can access the lake path…

Quick Stop
Stopped on our way up to Houghton but would definitely go back for an extended stay. Super spaced out and deep sites, beautiful late, clean bathrooms.
