LegendThis is a very quiet and remote area. The campground and town are both very calm and quiet. The beach is very nice and the water in Wilderness Lake is clean. There is an older playground that our kids still enjoyed, and an old abandoned railroad line that is now a trail. Town is tiny with a store or two . About a mile down the road to Lake Superior shoreline- there's a cool little park with a boardwalk and place to launch kayaks. The full hookup sites were nice and long and well spaced, but they were dirt so could be muddy in the rain. There were a lot of mosquitoes, but we kept them at bay with tiki torches and bug spray. Nice place to chill.
LegendThe only campground in the city of Marquette, immersed in a network of trails and parks, only a mile from the big lake, and 3 miles to Presque Isle and Black Rocks.... This campground has a lot to offer. It has two playgrounds, a small beach on the river basin, and immediate access to both paved and mountain bike trails. The full hookup sites from 61 to 80ish are large and in a nice canopy of mature trees. The place is paved and so are the fhu sites. Great place!
TravelerNice new campground, still under construction at our time of visit so navigating through to your site is a bit difficult. Note that you can hear the highway from this site. But nice campground if you want to stay close to Marquette.
GuideBeautiful small wooded campground. I did see an article that it's closing June 9 2025. So, please make sure it's open before you take the bumpy road down!
GuidePulled in. Most spots filled with semi permanent trailers and everyone had a generator. Pretty place but not for us.
GuideIt's 10 miles off US2 but it's free and very peaceful. Two others are here tonight.
TravelerAwesome spot right on the waters of Lake Superior. Absolutely gorgeous sunsets and sunrises. The drive out is manageable is about any car, four wheel drive helps if you decide to go deeper down the road.
RangerLong windy road into the the campground resulting in a peaceful area. The lake was nice and there was a small beach. Enjoyed listening to the sandhill cranes every morning.
LegendThis campground is close to Munising therefore convenient for visiting Pictured Rocks and other tourist draws in the area. In the busy summer season it may be difficult to get a last minute spot with an RV, but as I was tent camping and pleased to take a walk in site I had no problem getting a same day reservation even in August. The tent sites are all walkin, with a tent parking area and then various distances to hike in along a path to the different tent camp sites. The campsites themselves are gorgeous, with tall trees and right on the shore, and privacy in between. Also, they provide several wagons in the adjacent parking area so you can easily tote your gear into your site. All of that would make for a 5 star rating, maybe 4 due to road noise from the nearby highway. However, I am only giving this experience a 3 because of one really important drawback: there needs to be at least an outhouse provided adjacent to the tent area. As it is, if nature calls you first have to hike down the path through the tenting area to the tent parking lot, then hike through the campground to the bath house which is a good distance away. Apparently this is too far for some people so they decided to just poop by a bush by the tent site trail and left it right there. Worst yet, the spot I saw like this had be left there for probably a few days, which shows a need for maintanence to patrol the tenting area more often and clean up such messes as they are health hazards as well as nauseatingly ugly. I wish this hadnt happened as otherwise it would be a pretty decent place to tent camp!
