Twelvemile Beach Campground is a beautiful campground along Lake Superior located within the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, just 15 miles (24 km) west of Grand Marais. There are 36 sites total, including 2 universally accessible sites. Twelvemile Beach has water, pit toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and an interpretive amphitheater. The campground has access to the North Country Trail and the two mile (3.2 km) long self-guided White Birch Interpretive Trail. The turning radius and some of the parking at sites are limited, so the Park recommends that camper, or vehicle/trailer length should NOT exceed 42 feet (13 m).
There are three sets of stairs to the beach as well as a day-use picnic area and parking. The two-mile (3.2 km) long White Birch Trail begins and ends at the campground. The North Country Trail treks through the campground. The entrance road winds through a picturesque stand of white birch.
Sandstone cliffs, beaches, sand dunes, waterfalls, inland lakes, deep forest, and wild shoreline beckon you to visit Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. The power of Lake Superior shapes the park's coastal features and affects every ecosystem, creating a unique landscape to explore. Hiking, camping, sightseeing, and four-season outdoor opportunities abound.
Kayak and Other Guided Tours and Pictured Rocks Boat Cruises within the national lakeshore are offered by authorized private companies. Pontoon boat and other rentals for use on Lake Superior are available in nearby communities.

The Portage campground loop is located near the river, about a quarter-mile from the Lower Falls. This campground loop features an ADA-accessible modern toilet and shower building and some accessible campsites.

The cleanest friendliest campground ever. Lots of canoe, kayak, and tube action going on. So much fun!
Ranger
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.
ScoutCampground 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.
Traveler
Campsites are pretty close and there is no shade, trees are planted just still very small! Bathroom was nice, shower house a little crusty but not the worst we’ve been too!
Scout
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.
Guide
We have stayed here many times, but on the rustic side (same entrance as modern). Beautiful campground, clean, with incredible views. Vault style outhouse, you may also use the showers at the modern campground via a trail that connects the 2. Kayak rentals on site. Friendly staff. Quiet get away.
Near: Paradise, MI with gas, groceries and souvenirs. Whitefish Point Museum. Whitefish Point Senic Byway- nice drive with awesome indigenous history. ~1hr from Sue St Marie. 25mins from the actual Tahquamenon falls.
GuideLooks Like this, Campground has been remodeling for years. A lot of kids won’t need a lot of work. Do you only reason we stayed was for a shower But the shower design was small and water everywhere
ScoutMy family and I have camped here several times in the summer. We very much enjoy the river and access and kayaking to Lake Superior. The facilities are well kept and the bath house is clean.
Close to Whitefish Point and its museum, Close to the falls and not too far from Soo if you want to go see the locks.
GuideWe stayed in the Pines campground (not the Modern campground). This has the same entrance as the Modern campground but is a road to the left that follows the river bank. It is rustic campground and no generators are allowed. (You can walk to the Modern campground to use the showers in about 7-10 minutes). The sites are located under tall Pines. The view of the river was beautiful.
GuideThe modern campground is a pretty nice campground. There are trees behind which hide the loop behind you. There are a few trees between the camp sites, but these don't offer any privacy. All the sites have electricity in the Modern campground. The campground is about 17 miles from the lower falls.

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.
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
RangerReally enjoyed our stay here. Our site wasn't the greatest, corner lot, but we enjoyed the scenery, solitude, & trails. The whole area is fantastic, I'd like to visit again.
The primitive sites here are even better than the modern ones FYI. I wouldn't hesitate to grab one of those for a couple nights.
RangerThe campground itself is nice enough, although some of the sites are small with absolutely no privacy. What made this the least favorite of our campgrounds on our 10 day circle tour was the attitude of the park employees, esp the ones at the entrances. When we arrived, it was 2:10, and check-in started at 3:00. Any other park we’ve been to in our many years of camping lets you go ahead to the site if the previous party has vacated. We were met with “Do you realize that you’re early? Check- in is at 3, and it’s only 2:10!!” We asked if we needed to come back and she barked “No”. Well, if it isn’t a problem, then WHY bring it up? This attitude happened each time we had to go through a gate. Also, the showers were cold at 10 PM. As for visiting the falls, it was a warm sunny day, and the lower falls was SO crowded with people in the water everywhere, that it was one of those “expectation vs. reality” moments. Went back the next morning after 2” of rain, and it was a totally different experience. The best part of the park was the brewery and restaurant at the upper falls.
Traveler
Super quiet campground. Not much for amenities and no pool. But we loved it here because of how simple and quiet it was.
TravelerRight on the River which makes it amazing and a blast. The campground just overall needs maintenance with proper drainage when it rains. We always have a good time here. Definitely look forward to coming back.
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).
TravelerI camped in the area around the falls as a kid, and have fond memories of it. Nothing prepared me for camping near the river mouth. You want the old part of the campground, right on the river, with no electricity. The sunsets are magical, and are happening right in front of you. Simply the best experience short of backpacking. It is a short walk to the newer part of the campground where there are flush toilets. That just keeps everything in the old part very quiet.
Ranger
Large CG but quiet. Great location. Our corner interior site was fine, fire ring in a weird spot though. Day trip to the Pictures Rocks was about an hour drive.
Scout
Wonderful view of the lake beautiful log cabin very comfy sleeps 10 6 single beds with 2 queen beds wood stove was awesome
Legend
The staff at the office gave a helpful map that showed where the local waterfalls are at. There are a lot in the area! The campgrounds aren't anything special and the bathrooms are the nicest. I stayed in a kozy kabin for a night because my camping gear was wet from a storm the night before. Fire pits are provided and wood is for sale on site in the office as well as other necessities. Close to pictured rocks national lakeshore. Definitely go there!
RangerLove this campground to go fishing and paddle boarding. Quiet and relaxing with a hike that boarders the water. Down the street you will find whitefish bay with more fishing opportunities and it’s also great place to take photos if you are into photography! We stayed at site 126 and it was right next to the water and pretty private! Definitely recommend and hope to go back soon!
ScoutQuiet, wooded campground. Sites feel private. Super nice staff. Clean facilities and great little gift shop. Close to all the cool attractions like pictured rock cruises etc. This has been our favorite KOA so far. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend!
Traveler
This campground is very close to trailhead. Well maintained, decent wifi. Don't expect any Verizon cell coverage here. Sites are nice and large, staff is friendly and the bar has good food
