Nice place and great location

I stayed in one of the rustic tent sites, which sound really isolated on the site but really are not. That said, they were really nice campsites! I had an unfortunate RV couple watching tv and full on yelling at the game until 12:30am which sucked, but the owners took care of it. The location is fantastic - lots of kayaking nearby and hiking too. This area never disappoints.

Nice place

Very nice private campground that offers rustic, electric, and cabins. We stayed in a 30 amp electric site. The 30 amp sites are a bit tight but backed up to the woods, so privacy wasn't an issue. Very friendly owners! Can't wait to go back

Filled water at dump station We stayed in site 10 it was quiet and away from the core of the noise

Friendly staff Seasonals were a little wild and loud, I like to have fun so it didn’t bother me much but they didn’t always watch the kids, only complaint.

6 minutes back into the town near the River is a little gas station / general store —- best Pasties!

Nice Basecamp for Pictured Rocks and My Workweek

I snagged a spot here for my work week and for opportunities to explore Pictured Rocks.

The staff and other campers were super friendly and I loved enjoying a nice hot shower every evening.

They had ice and firewood available, a small beach and dock for launching or tying up boats, and lots of yard games for the kids.

There were also a couple nice public boat launches for the Au Train River right down the street!

No no no

This place looks like a scene from a movie; like Vacation (1983) pool full of swans scene instead of RV (2006) picturesque scenes! Packed full, one spot (literally up to the highway — noise fetish?) and it was the roomiest; just looks sad. Lots of kids. We’ve raised ours, don’t mind kids, but when they’re bored and unsupervised, they are not enjoyable.

Family Friendly, Great Lake View, Accomodating owners

We enjoyed our time at Superior Times. The owners are working to improve the resort and keep guests happy and have made several updates. We stayed in a cabin with a newly remodeled bathroom, which was very nice. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was nice too. 

Kids fished, rode Sea Doos - rented them for $60/hour, played basketball, and had a great time. We sat around our own firepit and had a chance to unwind and relax.  We will be back in the early fall to see the colors change. 

Great location to the Au Train falls and other waterfalls as well as Pictured Rocks.

Pretty lakefront campground. Great location to Pictured Rocks.

We really enjoyed our stay at Superior Times. The campground is on Au Train Lake and the campground offers jet skis, boats, and kayaks for rent. They were in the midst of grading the area leading down to the Lake so it was pretty dirty/dusty in that section; however,once that is done it will be really nice. The shower/bathrooms were very small but worked out fine.

Very clean and affordable

My wife and I camped here earlier this year (June ‘18) and had a great time! Not only was it affordable, but the bathrooms were extremely clean showers included. The site has cheap boat rentals and a small beach area to relax at. Not the type of site you’d want to stay at the whole trip, but great for people checking the area out and all it has to offer.

Perfect Spot

We stumbled upon this little gem and camped there for 3 nights. We opted for the rustic campground which still allowed access to the bathroom and showers, but was secluded from the cabin and RV area. The lake access was great! Warm water and good fishing. The staff was fantastic and even offered us a cold beer. Although we wanted to disconnect, the WiFi access near the office was great for mapping directions or checking the weather.
