Bewabic State Park operates this campground on Fortune Lake in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where the MIDNR Parks and Recreation Division maintains three distinct camping loops. The campground sits several miles from Crystal Falls, with Loop C featuring pull-through sites that accommodate larger RVs up to 34 feet, while Loops A and B offer more intimate settings with hills and tighter corners better suited for tents and smaller trailers.
Sam .. notes that "loops A and B have some hills and tight corners, making them more convenient for tents or smaller trailers," while Loop C provides the most spacious accommodations. Most sites include electrical hookups, though water connections aren't available—campers fill tanks before entering or use the on-site dump station. The mature forest provides natural buffers between sites, with many campers commenting on the generous spacing and privacy.
The campground includes vault toilets on each loop plus two shower houses with flush toilets strategically placed between the loops. Fortune Lake offers a small beach area accessible by a somewhat hilly road that most visitors drive rather than walk. The lake bottom can feel slimy in places, and Canada geese frequent the grassy areas behind the beach, leaving droppings that campers should expect. A hiking trail circles the island, providing the main recreational activity beyond lake access.
Cell service proves spotty throughout most of the campground, with the strongest signals near the bathrooms at loops A and B or at the park entrance. The campground operates with reservations available, and late-season visitors in September often find themselves with few neighbors. Devora D. experienced this firsthand: "the last 2 nights we were alone."
For those seeking additional options in the region, campgrounds near Bewabic State Park provide alternatives throughout the Iron County area.
