There are several hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails within a few miles from the cabin, including the Ironjaw semi-primitive area and the Pine Marten Run trail system offering 26 miles of trail. For the winter enthusiast, snowmobile trails can be found nearby, and the Pine Marten Run trail is frequently used for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing (although the trail is not groomed). Those trying their hand at fishing on the lake should note that boat access is carry-in only.
Natural Features
Tom's Lake Cabin is nestled adjacent to Tom's Lake and is ideal for swimming and fishing. Anglers will enjoy a day on the lake in search of largemouth bass and bluegill. After a day fishing and swimming, settle in for a wonderful campfire overlooking the lake and relax around the outdoor fire pit lined with a few benches. The Hiawatha National Forest is rich in wildlife, which includes 312 species that live within the Hiawatha National Forest region including whitetail deer, black bear, grey wolves, coyote, eagles, hawks, and rabbits.

9. Mckeever Cabin
2 Reviews•15 Photos•10 SavesOverview
McKeever Cabin is located in the Hiawatha National Forest in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, approximately 14 miles south of Munising, Michigan. The Cabin was constructed in 1991 and overlooks the 132-acre McKeever Lake. While the facility offers little in the way of modern amenities, convenient access to a number of recreational activities, including hunting, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, swimming and cross-country skiing, make this cabin a desirable destination for the outdoors enthusiast. During warmer months, visitors may park their vehicle and access the cabin by foot via a 1,000 ft. trail. When snow is present, the cabin may be accessed by snowshoe or cross-country skis via a 1-mile trail.
Recreation
During winter months, visitors can enjoy the McKeever Hills Ski Trail, which offers a quieter, less manicured alternative to highly groomed trails without sacrificing quality. The trail to the cabin connects directly to the ski trail, so visitors can ski right out the cabin door. The Bruno's Run Trail offers a 9 mile (14.48 km) loop ideal for hiking and mountain biking in spring, summer and fall and snow shoeing in winter. Although the trail is not groomed for cross-country skiing, it does offer a suitable source for experienced skiers who prefer to break their own way. Seasonal activities also include swimming, canoeing, kayaking and fishing on the lake as well as hunting in designated areas. See the Michigan Department of Natural Resource's website for information about hunting seasons and permits.
Natural Features
The cabin is situated on a small knoll surrounded by young evergreens and hardwood trees, overlooking the western shores of McKeever Lake. The lake was stocked with northern muskie in 1990, but also supports a good population of northern pike, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and bluegill. The Big Island Lake Wilderness is located near the cabin and features 23 small lakes ranging in size from 5 to 149 acres. White birch, maple and aspen cover the wooded hills that surround the lakes. Berries, mushrooms and wildflowers grow throughout the area and a wide range of wildlife and waterfowl, including sensitive species, may be carefully observed here.

Dark skies Retreat
Great open sky site, next to the water. High winds, but local beach trail and historic town a short walk away with additional trails. FYI bathrooms, shower facility, water drops, and water dumpsite closes annually for winterization around Oct. 21. Keep this in mind when booking! Water was shutoff days after. arriving thankfully we filled up jugs before that. Electric and camp wifi on year round. 30A and 20A service at each site, worked fine. We'll be back for the next New Moon!

Nice spot, GREAT bathrooms
Stayed here beginning of September for a few days. Site 53 and 54. 53 is nearly at the top of the horseshoe and has trail access to Lake MI. Site 54 starts a series of smaller, back in slot type sites. This stretch of sites was primarily used by overnighters in while we were here, and might be tight for a family to stretch their legs. The campground was pretty quiet, despite being full. The beauty of this campground is the trail access to the beach and lakefront, along with the nice modern bathrooms and showers. One drawback to these particular sites is the wall of invasive cocklebur along the outside, and you would get absolutely covered if you got near them. You can see them in my photo. Note: the lake area near the campground is all rip rap rock, like the white rock in the sunset photo with trees. There is a trail that goes past the boat landing to nice sand beach.

Great place. New owners are wonderful.
The cleanest friendliest campground ever. Lots of canoe, kayak, and tube action going on. So much fun!

Clean and quiet, cramped
Campground was quaint and bathrooms were well attended to. Campsites were very small; your neighbor's sewer tube was right underneath your picnic table. Neighbors were quiet and respectful, but the campground was right off the highway with a lot of traffic noise.

Place is a scam
Wwhatever do you, find somewhere else. God forbid you have to deal with the same thing we did. Just try calling, you'll see that there is no customer service, so when they over charge you, good luck getting your money back.

A lot of work needs to be done

Fayette State Park
Beautiful State Park
Isolated, quiet park on Lake Michigan. Nicely spaced and shaded sites. Some level, many not so great. Big fire rings. Picnic tables. Electric hookups only. Bath and shower facilities very new and nice. Spotty phone service. Historic ghost town within walking distance of the campground. Many buildings open during the day with displays of what life was like when the town was occupied. Great history lesson and very interesting. Although town buildings were locked at night, you could still walk the streets. Spooky but fun! Sunsets on the lake are spectacular. Many hiking trails around the park. Not strenuous and fairly short. However, trails could use better markings.

Close quarters but very nice!
We were a little close to our neighbors but that was ok. The historic site is awesome and the beach is beautiful. Great sunsets. Night skies were gorgeous. Campground is nice, just a little close to neighbors camping.

Great campground
Overall a very nice campground. Small beach area on the lake, playground, and boats available to rent. We’ve stayed in the water/electric sites and they are all very nice, but a bit of a walk from the bath house.
Amanda S.RangerTwelvemile Beach Campground — Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
Beautiful serene part of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
Very wonderfully setup campground with a few trails for light hiking right out of the campground. The sites are very big and can fit any size recreational vehicle or groups. The campground was kept in very great condition, with pit toilets and a water fountain. We stayed on site 5 and loved the view down to the lake. The White Birch trail runs off campsite 6 and ends at the beginning of the campground. This area is also used for day use down to the beach and the North Country Trail.

Perfect Rustic Campground
This is the campground you would build for family and friends. Everything looks new and well cared for. The campsites are beyond spacious. The road into the campground is one lane tight.
The pit toilets are immaculate. The picnic tables are extra large and new. The fire rings have gravel around and again, new.
This is quality in a rustic setting.
H. K.TravelerTwelvemile Beach Campground — Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
Unbelievably Beautiful
I loved this campground. I wish we were on the lake side for the spectacular views, but it's not a long walk over to watch the sunset or enjoy your morning cup of coffee.
Our site had a pole for a lantern, picnic table, fire ring and tent pad. The water spigot was a few sites over as was the vault toilet. The vault toilet was clean and didn't smell. There were many garbage cans.
Our site was large and private. We had neighbors on either side of us but didn't hear them or see them from our site.
The flies were extremely bad or first day but not our other two days. Bring lots of DEET for you and permethrin or something for your dog just in case!
Overall great experience and can't wait to come back!

Great private campground
This is one of the best camp grounds in the UP. Sites are full service and well spaced out. Several showers with hot water. Can serve as a great base camp for adventures in Pictured Rocks. Cell service is pretty good (Verizon)
