Brevoort Lake Campground stretches along the western shore of its namesake in the Hiawatha National Forest. This popular fishing destination is situated on a peninsula that juts into the lake and Beodne Bay. Visitors to the campground enjoy the easy access to the pristine sandy beaches.
The 4,233-acre Brevoort Lake provides ample opportunities for recreation. Boat access is available from the center of the campground on Boedne Bay. In 1985, the Forest Service completed the construction of a walleye spawning reef in Brevoort Lake, providing plentiful fishing in the area. Anglers can also expect healthy populations of pike, bass, perch and a variety of other fish. Hiking is also a popular pastime of visitors to the campground. The Ridge, Sand Dunes Cross Country and North Country National Scenic trails pass near the campground. A 10-minute ferry ride to Mackinac Island makes for an interesting day trip. The 3.8-acre island offers hiking, biking, horseback riding and shopping, as well as access to historical sites and museums, among other activities.
Campsites are somewhat secluded, surrounded by huge pine, hemlock and oak trees and low, shrubby vegetation. Beach grass grows along the lake shore, sometimes buried in light sand.

Lake Michigan Campground at St. Ignace provides great views and unlimited access to Lake Michigan. The area has excellent trails, winding hikers through ancient sand dunes, windswept foundations and a variety of vegetation.
The campsites are located between 20- to 30-foot high sand dunes and are just steps away from great body-surfing waves, that crash onto the lake's sandy beaches during commonly high winds. Lake Michigan does offer fishing, but anglers tend to prefer Brevort Lake better, for its catches of walleye, pike, bass, perch and crappie. Campers at Lake Michigan have access to the popular Sand Dunes Cross-Country Ski Trail, as well as the North Country National Scenic Trail, which connects a host of natural areas, from valleys to hilltops, prairies to forests and everything in between. Both trails offer miles of terrain, keeping hikers busy for as long as they choose.
The campground stretches along a bluff between the highway and the lake. Dunes, waves, sand and wind are the primary environmental factors present. Visitors enjoy watching shorebirds, like the Spotted Sandpiper, which can often be seen running up and down the beaches throughout the day.
Brevort Lake is about five miles from the campground. St. Ignace is about 18 miles from the campground and is the closest town.

We’ve stayed at Mackinac Millcreek a few times. Awesome campground, definitely need to know the campground a little bit IF you’re planning on bringing a very large RV. But if not, call the office they’ll put you in a good spot. Our first time to the campground was pretty funny, the whole camp ground was sold out. But they squeezed us in by the rally building and apologized about it being by the maintenance area. Turn out to be one of the best spots we’ve camped. There was a lot of partying, so it was perfect for us. But the rest of the campground is pretty chill.

Our first visit to this park and first stay at campground, and it was absolute bliss! Absolutely worth the drive to enjoy all the peace, quiet, space, views, amenities, trails and of course the waterfalls. Words cannot really explain the beauty all around. The recent upgrades to this park can easily be seen and appreciated in the well kept grounds, available amenities, picnic areas, pavilions , fully functional accessible bathrooms and large personal shower rooms. Not a detail was missed! And yes, the restaurant is a plus! We enjoyed delicious bison burgers and beer. The campground was full of guests but quiet, clean, clean restrooms, self serve firewood machine that accepts cards! We were surprised to find out that you will need to pay for state park pass even with camping reservations. The $40 annual pass is the best value if visiting for longer than 3 days. We stayed for 4 nights with 34’ camper on site 188, which is at the very beginning of loop but still very quiet, no road noise. Outer sites are very spacious, inner sites are much smaller. Convenient trails connect Lower and upper falls, 4 miles. One mile trail to reach lower falls from campground. the lower falls alone will give you plenty to explore. We spent two days there, one kayaking around the lower falls and river where you can launch your own kayak from lower falls, next to picnic area and paddle up to the falls and down river. but be mindful, you will paddle upstream heading back. Some areas are low but doable. The park offers canoe rental but only to lower fall and back. We spent another full day just walking around taking everything in, and cooling off in the falls of course. The upper fall area is just as lovely but you can only view from view points. We enjoyed an evening walk to upper falls when hardly no one was there. The park is roughly 30 mins to nearby lighthouses, 90 mins to western points like Munising and pictured rocks. No need to second guess this place, just go and enjoy responsibly! And please be respectful of this beautiful park.
Guide
Great camp ground , large sites right on the lake
Traveler
Quiet campground with feeling of privacy due to sites being wooded and spread out. Access to lake and to rustic pit toilets close by. Good potable water. Easy self check in.
TravelerVery clean and very well ran and organized! Great staff will probably come back to this one
GuideLess than half full. Good non motorized boat launch. Nice forest, most sites well screened. 4 sites with great lake view, on little lake. kayaked around lake. No real navigable access to the larger Bevoort Lake or Lake Michigan. Quiet, no highway noise.
Guide
Only 60 to 75 percent full midweek in July. Most sites are first come first served. Most sites are separated by natural forest. Beautiful dunes and beach. Traffic noise from highway is an issue.
Guide
Arrived here late after finding no sites at Mouth of the Two Hearted. Found an excellent tent site that comfortably accommodated 2 tents and a sleeping hammock. Site also had beach access so our kayaks could launch easily. There seemed to be to be a decent number of fishermen in the morning, but our own fishing attempts were unsuccessful.
Bodi Lake trail looked interesting, but my feet were killing me from hiking Taquamenon earlier that day, and we were eager to get back to 2 Heart. Looking forward to coming back at a future date to try it out.

Our site was $99.89 night.
We were in Site# 98. We had Full hook- up with a gravel pull-through.
We travel towing a 14 foot trailer and were able to fit both in our pull through site along with my jeep. The site was easy to level.
Our site was not shaded with limited trees (many were shaded though). This was a smaller lot with our neighbors fairly close.
This lot (a premium lot) comes with a concrete patio with a round table with four chairs, two Adirondack chairs and a fire pit and a charcoal box grill.
It is an easy access to the campground from highway -(approximately 1 mile from highway).
There is free WiFi. They offer Cable TV and there are many channels.
There is not a community outdoor kitchen or community fire pit.
They sell wood for $7 a bundle.
They pickup your garbage at your site daily.
You are allowed to ride personal golf carts. They also allow you to rent regular bicycles and e-bikes. They do not provide golf cart rentals. There is really not a need to have a Golf cart because it is a smaller campground.
They do have a Swimming pool. There is a Playground. They also offer Gaga ball,horseshoe, and corn hole. There is a Reading lending library and board games to borrow.
They have a great general store. There is an electric car charging station. They sell propane.
There is not a snack bar/restaurant on site.
The streets are gravel so not great for riding bikes.
There are great places to ride bikes outside of campground. From the campground, there is a nature trail that you can take your bike that leads you to the. North Western State Trail.
They have cabins for rent and tent areas.
They have one shower house. The shower house has individual showers. Toilets with sinks are in a shared bathroom. These are kept very clean.
There is a laundry facility. It is a cash only facility. There are approximately 5 washers and 5 dryers. It is approximately $2.50 to wash and $1.50 to dry a load.
They have a fenced in dog park.
Bugs (mosquitoes/flies)did not seem to be an issue.
There were trails to hike off of the campground.
Some fun things to do outside of the campground are go to the beach (1 mile away); visit Mackinac Island (both major ferries will transport you for free - this KOA provides you information for Shepler’s Ferry). Both ferries offer packages that include horse drawn carriage rides, Fort Mackinac admission, Island Hotel Admission, Butterfly House admission, Mystery Town admission, and Parking options). There is a Jack Pine Lumberjack show.

Certainly! Here’s a review for the campground:
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful campground next to Lake Huron, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The location is absolutely stunning, with beautiful lake views and easy beach access that made our stay truly memorable. The rates were very reasonable, providing great value for the exceptional amenities offered.
One of the highlights of our visit was the recreation and game area, which kept the whole family entertained. The facilities were well-maintained and offered a variety of activities for everyone to enjoy.
What truly set this campground apart, though, was the staff. They were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. I was particularly touched by their kindness and attentiveness when my youngest daughter fell ill. They went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable and that we had everything we needed.
Overall, I highly recommend this campground to anyone looking for a beautiful, affordable, and family-friendly place to stay by Lake Huron. We had a fantastic time and will definitely be returning!
TravelerBeautiful campground on Lake Michigan. Most of our time was spent on the sand beach. Beautiful sunsets and great swimming. Big sites and clean campground.
ScoutFor those of you who are from the area or who come back year after year to enjoy the feeling of family, you will not get it when you return this year. You will notice the difference between big cooperate and family run who actually care about your camping experience. I drove through the campground the other day. You will not longer be aloud to use the dock to fish off of, the lawn behind the bathrooms where you sat and watched the beautiful sunsets is no longer mowed and you will not find kids playing with the games that were provided for your use. Canoe, kayak and paddleboard rentals are gone. No wood to purchase for your fun around the campfire and no ice for your coolers.
The sites are not cleaned like they were, you will find cig butts and other trash on the ground and they will not be raked and waiting for your arrival. Tall grass grows where it was previously trimmed neatly. We took pride in making that campground feel like home so that you could make many memories and come back year after year. The Forest Service had an axe to grind and wanted a cheap easy fix. You get what you pay for. Over 10 years former host.

TravelerAbsolutely beautiful campground! Stayed there for a week and loved every minute of it. Very peaceful, big, and a beautiful lake view. Will be making this campground a stop every year now.
TravelerStayed here in early June and had the pleasure of having the whole campground to ourselves. Sites are close to one another and has vaulted toilets. This is a beautiful campground with access to the water via boat launch but not easy access from a few sites. Most sites are wooded and provide great shade and wind protection. Can be quite buggy. We kayaked and enjoyed beautiful sunrises and sunsets to escape the bugs. I did come back later in the season, early August, and sites were packed with multiple tents per site, and kids were riding their bikes around the loop all evening. I like to camp more secluded and this was just too busy and loud for my liking. I ended up leaving and staying at hog island state forest campground that trip.
ScoutThey gave us a bogus charge of 50$ several days after we left, for smoking in a cabin. Myself, my wife and our 4 year old son do not smoke. Never have never will. The bogus charge is being disputed but that’s not the point. Warning to others to find somewhere else to camp, at least if you’re renting a cabin. What a scam operation.
GuideThis was a really nice spot with clean bathrooms and showers, quiet, and close to some nice hiking and scenery. The sites are fairly small and close together, but overall the campground was pretty quiet. If traveling with a group you could get some sites together and it would work out really nice.
Scout
well kept and quiet campground. the owner, Clem was super friendly and accommodating. campground seems a little desolate from the outside but if you want a good nights sleep, this is the place. :) right on the main rip to the city and excellent for stargazing because it’s so open.
Legend
The campsites weren't particularly scenic, but relatively private. We ended up sleeping in the car because the ground was so wet due to rain.
ScoutWas simple, easy, and clean! Perfect sight for out quick trip.
Traveler
Been here twice now. Always a quiet and beautiful stay. There's a playground a pool for kids. Large wooded sites and friendly staff
Guide
Most of the campsites here need to be reserved-there are only a handful of first come. Whichever site you get there is beach front access with an actual sandy beach! Very little boat traffic, no homes on this lake, an excellent biking/hiking trail around the lake too. Bathrooms were cleaned daily and camp hosts were very friendly. Cell service is almost non existent and quite a few generators running.
Scout
May open later in Aug or Sept unexpectedly and with out notice.
GuideThis was nice place with great facilities. It was clean throughout, great responsive staff. Lots of activités for the kids and a shuttle to the ferry.
LegendIf you've camped at a KOA before, then you know what you're getting here. Easy on, easy off I-75. It's close to the interstate, but the noise was never intrusive. Mostly because of the stiff wind blowing out of the North.
The sites are tight, particularly the inside pull throughs. The back in sites are more spacious, though that's relative. Site 7 is a very spacious back in site. 1-6 are by Trails End Road, but it isn't really that busy or noisy. I would get a back in site, especially if you can get away with 30 Amp service. 16-20F are back in sites with 50 Amp. There are some deluxe pull throughs with patio & grill on site. There are some extra long pull through sites.
There are the usual KOA amenities like a heated pool, playground, a game area & bike rental. There's a nice hiking trail in the back. It takes you to the bike trail, so back track back to the campground unless you want to walk on the bike trail/road.
What makes KOAs & this KOA special are the clean bathrooms & showers. It's always a pleasure to know that a shower will be KOA clean!
Staff was courteous & efficient. They delivered ice & wood to your site.
This is a good base camp for the area. I would stay again if in Mackinaw City!
Legend
We stayed for one Monday night on our way to the Porkies.
This is an established campground. The sites are tight, most have no bushes/trees. We were lucky on our right side to have some privacy. The perimeter sites back into a chain link fence that has a view of the woods. This is on both sides of the campground.
The bathrooms/showers were clean. The showers had 2 large lips to step over. My mobility challenged husband had some trouble.
The best sites are 26,27,28,76&77. These sites are right by the beach & have great views. 27 looked like it didn't have electricity & might be a tent site. Strangely, 26 & 27 were empty the night we were there.
The beach is small & you can swim there. There's no pool. There's several swings & benches to sit & look at the water. There's a game room by the store.
I did like this campground. It reminded me of what camping must have been like in the 50s/60s. A retro feel to it.
ScoutWe stayed at the Hemlock campground near the Lower Falls. The campsites are so close to one another, with absolutely no privacy/buffer. I am used to camping at parks in Wisconsin, where there is generally more brush and understory plants and sites are better spaced out. We were there on Saturday and Sunday nights, and the campsite was packed with people; an army of kids riding bikes and scooters, and some teenagers driving an RC car all over. Lots of dogs, but thankfully they all seemed well-behaved. I was shocked with how quiet it was after sundown. I was expecting there to be some loud and obnoxious people, but everyone seemed to be respectful volume-wise.
Aside from the awkwardness of being so close to other campers, the site itself was nice; flat, pine needle/dirt base.
The bathrooms were alright. Showers were limited to 3 and always busy. Water fluctuated between warm and mostly cold. I did read that the bathroom/shower building is going to be replaced next year, which will be wonderful for future campers.
We bought firewood from the park's dispenser near the entry building. It seemed wet and did not burn very well. The second night we purchased our firewood from Gene's Tahquamenon General Store, just down the road, and it seemed to be better quality. The general store looked nice inside, with all kinds of useful items for sale.
While we stayed at Tahquamenon Falls SP, we visited both waterfalls, which were beautiful and easy to get to. Bathrooms at both falls were large and clean.
We also made a day trip to Whitefish Bay to see the Shipwreck Museum and hang out at the beach.
We wanted to get dinner in Paradise our second night, but the two food trucks that we originally wanted to check out were closed. (Sub shop in town was also closed when we tried to stop by at lunch time) We considered eating at one of the two sit-down restaurants in Paradise or driving to the brewery by the Upper Falls, but we didn't want to wait very long or spend that much money. We ended up going to Eddy's food truck across from the Wheelhouse. Food was alright, prices were fair for a food truck, owner was super friendly, and there was a nice little seating area off to the side.
Overall our camping experience at this VERY popular park was good. If I were to camp there in the future, I would be sure to make my reservations much further in advance in order to get a site on the outer edge (or try out the rustic campsites).
