LegendWe were a little confused here, as we thought the camping spots were the concrete pads leading up to the old airfield. But there are big rocks blocking the way from Rd 3536 to the airfield, so I don’t know if that’s a recent addition or what. There’s a large concrete pad on the west side of the rocks, and when we got there there was a nice looking (not sketchy) travel trailer set up for long term camping. Lots of trucks parked everywhere with trailers; they had hauled their ATVs in and were out riding for the day. They came back on their ATVs in the late afternoon, hung out for a few hours, then left (except for the trailer). All surprisingly quiet and respectful.
Zero cell service with Verizon but ATT had good service, mostly. It would randomly drop now and then but it would come back. We found a good spot to tuck into for the night, while staying out of the way of all the trucks parked everywhere. Very quiet and serene.
This is dispersed camping so of course no amenities whatsoever. Please handle your waste appropriately and let's keep this area clean.
ScoutGood size lots with fire pit. Some full hookup and others with electric and water. Also WiFi available however seems not to work well. Cable tv, Laundry and bath house. At friendly with nearby trails.
ScoutAlthough this is a great family campground, most bigger Campers and Rvs can't stay here. There are many trees too close to roadways for turning corners, and many branches are hanging low overhead. We did manage after many attempts, to gently get our 42 foot fifth wheel toy hauler into a spot. We loved the warmer water of the inland lake for swimming with the kids, and the scenic hiking trail around the lake was great. We would definitely stay again in a smaller camper.
GuideRustic campground with 46 sites for tents or RVs up to 40ft. Vault toilets, two well hand pumps with potable water. Waterfront and non-water front sites available on a first come, first serve basis. No reservations. Beach area and water access. Open year round. Pet friendly.
GuideAn awesome campground tucked away in the U.P. Big rig access(46’ 5th wheel). Nice concrete pads, full hook up and cable. The staff is great and helpful. Secluded and quiet.
LegendWe arrived at about 1:00 PM and wondered whether we go to the Casino parking lot or the campground(CG) on the other side of the road. We opted for going to the building at the CG entrance. Good choice as the check-in office is located there along with restrooms, showers, and laundry. Check in wasn’t exactly quick but we were offered a couple of sites(without any recommendations based on the size of our rig) and made the mistake of taking site 12 because it seemed to be the furthest from the road. The only good thing about the site for us was that it was along the dog run. This FHU pull-through was tight with trees preventing us from putting out awnings and we were VERY close to the neighboring sites. We had to reposition our rig just to get the slides out. Our picnic table was in good shape but our fire pit had garbage and grass growing up about a foot. The site was just long enough for our 5th wheel and truck so we had to park diagonally in front of the site. There’s a nice dog area(not fenced) across from this site but the poop bag garbage can had not been emptied in some time as it was overflowing. The first thing the next morning we went over to the casino hotel office to ask about moving to the 78-120 section where the sites are longer and better spaced. We had scoped out empty sites and asked for pull-through site 117 with FHUs, which was then assigned to us. The ladies at the casino were definitely more helpful than the gentleman who checked us in. We moved that morning to this better site. We got 2 bars on Verizon. The Wifi was below average for a CG this size, and even very early in the morning, it was mediocre. The water pressure was average at about 40 psi. However, the cable worked well with lots of channels. There was a laundry room with reasonable prices, which was convenient but not all the machines were working. We do not gamble and the food at the resort was nothing to write home about so not much of a draw for us. While the adjacent golf course was great, we’d need a more compelling reason to come back.
GuideThis is a family friendly campground. Even though harvest fest was canceled this year, there were still plenty of Halloween decorated campsites and kids dressed up in their best costumes to get some candy around the campsites. The showers are warm and the bathrooms are clean. 30 amp service was great. Water was in walking distance.
RangerDue to Covid and the state parks getting shut down I started looking outside my usual campgrounds and found this gem. We had site 29 as it was the last available one online and it was a huge pull through site. We had electric and no water. It was very shaded which would be great heat but it was so cold I actually wished we had sun. It was across from the playground which my kids loved. I loved that it was close the the bathhouse which also had laundry. It was $1.50 to wash and another $1.50 to dry a load. The showers were hot but I hated that you had to push a little button and couldn’t control the temperature. It was so frustrating it almost knocked a star off because my kids could not push it and it was a pain while trying to get them both showered. Owners were friendly and present. Bathroom and laundry were clean. Site did not have a 20 amp plug just a 30 amp bit owner had an adapter he let me borrow. Close to the falls! Newberry also had two grocery stores, and some dollar stores. Campground sold firewood ($5) and ice ($2). Cell service with Verizon was barely one bar but I did get some service. Camp had WiFi but I couldn’t get it to work it was so slow.
