Gorgeous Lake Superior beach experience

Gorgeous Lake Superior shore experience! Fall asleep to the sound of waves. 

Address of property:  19456 West Lakeshore Drive, Brimley, Michigan 49715

There are no services nearby. Plan accordingly.

Sites fronting the sand beach include: #3; #5; #6; #7; #9; #11; #13; #15; #17; #18; #20; #21;#23;#24;# 25. In fact, these campsites are very large and mostly situated about 20 feet above the beach with a path leading to the sand. Pine-Maple-Spruce-Oak forest is dense. There is a vast difference in experience if camping on the inland side of the narrow road. Try to reserve a site on the beach side where access is just a simple path away.

Sites are shady with limited dappled sun occasionally. The most beguiling sites for a tent camper are sites # 24 & #25 with minimal walk-in. 

There are 2 vault toilet outhouses in the narrow campground; and they are well-maintained. Campground hosts for 2021 were super helpful and friendly. 

The campground is close to the agate beach at the historic Point Iroquois Lighthouse first built in 1855.
