Many campers have enjoyed the swimming beach and the nearby boat launch, making it easy to get out on the water. Solar As one happy camper noted,“The beach area for swimming in Lake Independence is nice with a pavilion, volleyball, and ping pong nearby.”

Van Riper State park has very unlevel sites with no water and 30 amp service. Unacceptable with today’s campers. Time to update Michigan
TravelerWe are not a big state park fan as, in Michigan, there are very close sites and tons of noise. This one was relatively quiet. The site were the standard Michigan close but the campgeound was t full and there many options to choose from. The lake is real nice and the beach area is clean, spacious and it has a general store that has firewood for sale. We first reserved a rustic site, then changed to an electrical hook up site after arriving. The ranger was very accomodating.

This place is way off the beaten path. Long dirt road to get back here. There are tent sites all along the beach front to watch the sunset and pick rocks. Most sites are fairly level. I feel like we got one of the only ones that wasn't but I'm not real picky. @ramblinsmurf
GuideI’m a very simple camper used to having space and quiet…this was not the best time to pass through for an overnight. I arrived and the campground was so loud with people and kids shouting. There is zero privacy (they pack you in) so be sure to get a spot along the edge where you’ll at least have trees. I was very surprised and grateful how respectful everyone was of the quiet hrs…other than snoring and some traffic it was quiet. On a positive, the pit toilet was really clean and spacious. And the ranger at check in was so nice.
TravelerWe really liked this campground mostly for its location and beautiful beach on Lake Superior. It has a long driveway that is gravel and all of the campground loops are also gravel or sand so it can be a little dusty. The lake shore sites have beautiful, full views of the lake but just know that many sites will be a tight fit for larger rigs. We have a 26' travel trailer and stayed in the newer loop a little ways away from the beach. It didn't bother us as it was easier to park and a very short walk to enjoy the beautiful sunsets this campground is all about.
Scout
I can hear my neighbors talking at their campsite from mine. We are packed in here like sardines.
Beautiful area, though. Caught a rainbow just as we were setting up camp. And they had wood and ice.
Guide
Really nice and level site(62) just a short walk from the beach. Really clean and well kept state park. Hiking trails are plentiful. Centrally located on the Keweenaw Peninsula allows time for exploring many sites this location has to offer. Too bad the “Gitch” washed away some of the lakeside campsites, hopefully they rebuild soon! My family will definitely come back!
ScoutOlder well established state park. Has high usage in summer. Being older, many lots in modern area are close together. Decent restroom/shower building. Poor wifi reception.

A beautiful place. Very valuable for tourism and a great destination.
LegendHeading across the upper UP from upper Wisconsin and needed a one night stay to dump tanks, etc. The location was great and the park nice enough. Just happened to be there during the last ‘get the camping in with the kids before school starts’ time of the year. Dump station was fine and suited our needs. Verizon signal good as well. Easy in and out with our 28’ pull behind.
ScoutThe bathrooms and showers were awesome and made for an easy experience even if tent camping. The view only 200 feet in front of the site was crazy and amazing. The pics are all from right out front of the site. Excellent campground!!
ScoutThe campgrond ok the bathrooms nice the site we had was not very good did not like it by road but all site you can hear traffic it was loud and not camper friendly to set out side at all so I will not go back they give you rules and one was don't leave dogwood in site and we had it at our site we went to breakfast one morning came back and the man his wife camping in front was standing outside his slide and peeing just pretty disgusting. So no will not go back was not fun experience

Excellent low-frills campground. Picturesque backdrop, nicely positioned spots. First come first served. Water, picnic table, fire ring. It’s all you need! Well maintained, clean bathroom, potable water. Will be back when heading to Isle Royale. Price is now $20/night.
ScoutOverall, it’s a very nice park. Sites are mostly level & of adequate size. Bathrooms & showers are top notch (relatively speaking). There’s a 3/4 mile trail at back of park that well short, is quite nice. The campground itself is quiet, the noise from hwy 41 on the other hand, is noticeable yet not a dealbreaker. Well situated to check out the area.
TravelerWe normally like more remote camping, but there aren’t a lot of choices around Marquette. We stayed in the upper loop at site 77, it’s far from the rest of the camp and the sites are nicely space out. Immaculate bathrooms and showers. The resort has WiFi but we couldn’t get it at our site. Kids loved the pool. Easy trail access to the mountain bike park! We will likely stay here again
ScoutReserved a spot here as part of my cross country overlanding trip. It was a basic electric campsite outside. I drove into the ahem, campground and the first thing you see are a bunch of prefabbed cabins - pretty cheesy. Went to check in at the lodge. Small bar, and a beer cooler filled with no beer (lol). The girl at front desk was very nice and informative. She gave be about 10 pieces of paperwork and wristbands (really! I’m just camping for the night!!!). Then explained the myriad of rules in order to camp. First o e was no smoking at your outdoor site! Lol. If she found ashes at the site, I would be charged a fine- lol. I asked for my $$ back, but you can’t cancel. What a joke. If you smoke weeed, of if your campfire ash looks like a cigarette ash, you’ll get fined. Avoid this place at all costs if you are vanlife, over landers or partake in the green stuff, this is not the place for you. If your camping approach is Martha Stewart meets kohls, have at it!

Ashley here with The Dyrt. I'd like to give a warm welcome to your hosts, Madeline & AJ. These hosts have put so much care and thought into their property. camping space is available for tents or rvs, and there are hiking trails throughout the property. Check them out and leave them some love!
ScoutI had a really great time camping here. Beautiful park with super nice people.
ScoutThis campground is right next to the highway and the traffic noise goes on all night. Granted, there is a beautiful view of the bay since there is no tree line to buffer the noise, but it’s very difficult to enjoy that view due to the constant racket. I will not be back.
GuideGreat state park but campground does have a few downfalls. The best spots are tent only, and most of the “big rig” spots don’t have any privacy. We also had a really hard time finding a spot that we would plug in because the boxes were so far away, even though we have a 20ft extension cord. Aside from difficulty with a spot, it was a great stay. Not a lot of people there, beautiful views, greats waterfalls all around, clean bathrooms.
RangerNice campground right on Lake Michigamme, variety of sites (tents, cabins, electric hook-ups), big clean beach, showers. AT&T was okay, ended up using it for internet over Starlink, which was spotty due to trees. Son had a good time skateboarding and using the playground. We've stayed twice now and likely will again. I did notice the AED was missing from the beach house/laundry area....otherwise it seems accessible.
RangerIt's a parking lot off the main highway, do yourself a favor and just drive another 5-10 miles for something better
RangerThis place is awesome. Make reservations ahead of time. New modern bathrooms since our last visit in 2015. Beautiful night skies, if your lucky you will see northern lights.
