Flowing Well Campground

It was okay, wouldn’t go back here again though...

We wanted to love this rustic campground in Rapid River, MI but it just wasn’t our cup of tea. Upon first glance it was a beautiful natural campground, with abundant trees and wildflowers, and well-tended facilities. The flowing artesian well (that the campground is obviously named after) is very cool. At first, when I took this video we were enraptured by the beauty and tranquility of the campground, with the river just below the banks of our campsite. However, we soon discovered that it wasn't going to be peaceful or quiet. The campground sits right on the main road, which happened to be (at least at the time we were there) an active logging road. So we were constantly hearing logging trucks going by from morning until late evening. It got to be so annoying that we cut our stay short despite prepaying, and moved to another campground. The river was beautiful, but didn’t produce much in the way of fishing. If it weren’t for the fact that it was on a main travel road for big, loud logging trucks, I would have given this a couple more stars and rated it higher.
