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.
The campground is pretty wide open, so there isn't much privacy, but it is absolutely beautiful!
I had the luck to arrive when there was some heavy weather moving through the area, which made for some absolutely beautiful skies.
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.
Less 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.
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.
Looks 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
Been here twice and everytime was amazing. The place is super clean, the people are kind, the view is unbelievable. We will come again.
We got a beautiful site right on the lake - big back-in with full hookups. If you’re not lucky and end up in the middle sections, just be aware that the water/electric hookups can be a bit tricky. (Hint - make sure to have extra cord and hoses.) Otherwise this is a perfect location right on the lake, about a 6 minute drive to all the attractions in town, clean and well-maintained. Will definitely return if the right site is available! At&T and T-Mobile service was fine, plus there’s passable WiFi.
Love the Munising area. Lots of waterfalls and close to pictured rocks. Nice facilities and great location. Fire ring is provided at each campsite and was clean of debris. Sites were large and easy to back into; big rig friendly! wood is available for purchase.
Stayed 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.
Wish we had stayed here - beautiful

Been here twice now. Always a quiet and beautiful stay. There's a playground a pool for kids. Large wooded sites and friendly staff
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.
Enjoyed the campground. The site was clean and just enough privacy from the other sites. Only one complaint was there was no designated tent vs RV sites. Generator for two days and nights was not what we were looking for being in tent camping.
This is a busy campground right on Munising Bay on Lake Superior. Reservations for the busy season need to be made months in advance, and even reserving 6 months before our arrival date, we got the last spot. We have a 22 foot travel trailer, so we can fit onto most any site, but this campground draws some huge rigs pulled by tractor trailers.
The people in the office are great. The beach on the bay is spectacular. Overall nice campground at a very good price.
But this is an older campground, and the electrical system can't handle the power draw from the big rigs. People at the end of the power line - beware! Bring your surge protector to protect your electrical system.
We were fine until day 3 where the temps hit 88 degrees, and the big rigs were running their double air conditioners, while we were running just our fridge, water heater and a fan. Draws about 6 amps. We didn't have enough power coming to our site even for that, and the surge protector shut everything down. Thank goodness it did it's job and protected the electrical system on the trailer. At one point the power coming into the site was only 98 instead of 120ish.
So while the big boys further up the line were running 2 air conditioners, we weren't getting enough power to run a water heater, fridge and a fan. We had to put our water heater and fridge onto propane and do without even a fan in 88 degree heat. Thank goodness our fridge and water heater can run on propane, and the lights work on DC, but the fan runs on 110, so it didn't work.
The people in the office were apologetic, and they said we should have power when it cools down and there aren't so many air conditioners running. That was small comfort when we were paying for a 50 amp site for our 30 amp trailer, and we couldn't even run a fan. At least the surge protector kept us from damaging the trailer electrical system - we hope!
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.
Great campground on a lake perfect for lots of water sports. Bathrooms were clean and most sites are on the lake. The hiking trail is a bit overgrown and goes through a swampy area with lots of mosquitoes. Beware that the route to get here is on a dirt road, heavily washboarded and took us about 30-40 minutes from the main highway. Otherwise an amazing secluded camping area!
Well set up campground with about 25 sites on a loop with maybe 30 sites for $22/night. Each site on the lake side of the loop has their own access to a path along the lake and a spot to easily tie off a boat. There are paths off the loop so that campers on the other side can access the lake path and the beach. There are also a handfull of walk in sites that I think are free, those have private lake access walks too! Toilets are clean and nicely spaced out, as is water. There is a boat launch before turning left into the camping area and to the right, a hiking trail. The ONE thing I have to say is that the mosquitos came in droves and were absolutely ravenous. We aren't sure if they fog at this place but if not, they most certainly should, at least around spring hatch time. These things were unphased by a number of citronella candles, obscene amounts of bug spray.. Cooking anything was awful.. and they drove all 4 of my brood to the brink of madness at some point or another. However, it is pretty centrally located to a number of things yo do and areas to visit! It's about 35 minutes from camp to Manistique and Kitch-Iti-Kipi. About 65 minutes to Grand Marais and some waterfalls. And about 25 minutes to Munising or Pictured Rocks and Miner's Beach, with a bunch of waterfalls along the way. Most waterfalls are easily accessed just off the road, but Sable Falls does have 168 stairs.
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!
Friendly staff, gorgeous sunsets from Lake Superior's shore, water + electric sites, dump station, hot showers. There are some tent sites along the shore that look amazing. Next time we'll be paddling to Grand Island. We stayed at the end of September.
Stopped on our way up to Houghton but would definitely go back for an extended stay. Super spaced out and deep sites, beautiful late, clean bathrooms.
We stayed here a few times in summer of 2020. AT&T was too spotty for internet use (around 2 bars, 3 at best). Great State Forest campground with multiple sites; vault toilets, hand pump water, was $15/night then (likely $20 now), no reservations. Pretty Lake is connected to other lakes and is excellent for kayaking, canoeing, and swimming. We also enjoyed the hiking trail several times with our dogs. Don't come here if you hate gorgeous views and outdoor recreation!
Quiet, 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!
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
Beautiful quite campground in the middle of nowhere has a nice bar with good food. WiFi is great, friendly people. Orv trails right on site super nice if you ride. Nice and cool for august
Incredibly beautiful lake. The pit toilets were super clean and the sites were amazing. Wish we stayed longer.
