Beautiful

Spent 2 nights here and it was awesome. Privacy between campsites but not much from the road itself. Short 5-10 min walk from the river where we were able to see a ton of spawning salmon. Just be careful walking on the road, locals fly down it.

Beware of the Locals

Great campground and especially beautiful in the autumn. Be warned it gets chilly at night even in September/October.

Best to stock up in Ludington rather than the local township (the Meijer is only a couple years old). Also, locals tend to drive a little too fast down the access road to Sulak Landing, but they're pretty good at avoiding pedestrians. This area is the most conservative place I've camped (worse than Oconee River, GA), but as long as you keep to yourself at the campground, others will do the same.

#10 is probably the best site for hammocks, followed by #11, #5, #2, and #1. #12 is probably the worst site for hammocks, followed by #3.

Two vault toilets, one at day parking lot, one down by the Landing; they could stand to be emptied more often. All sites have firepits and picnic tables. No water. Poor phone coverage. Privacy between campsites is pretty good, though privacy from the access road varies significantly from site to site.

We love it!

We are grateful to have found this free campground for our very first destination in our RV life. There are some short but beautiful trails. The sites are mostly shaded but we were able to get enough sunlight for our solar panels. There is little cell signal but with our antenna we could work as well :)

Great rustic campground

Great, rustic sites that back up to the north country trail. Very spacious and more than 50 yards in between some of them.

Great free camping

Spacious large sites. Vaulted toilet. Good fishing. Free boat launch. What else can you ask for plus it's all free. I love waking up to the sounds of the birds.

Secluded Campground

Nice and quite campground, the campsites are very far to each other sites. No electricity outlet, nor water pump so be prepared. All in all, my experience was amazing!

Great winter site!

We visited during the government shut down, and this site was perfect! Campsites are in national forest but (single) pit toilet was accessible because it’s on state property!! Was amazing to connect from the site directly to the North Country Trail and fishing access could not have been better.
