Wa-Wen Resort

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

A privately owned lakeside resort in De Tour Village, Wa-Wen provides full hookups (electric, water, and sewer), a dump station, drinking water, and showers for both RV and tent campers. Sites run $50 per night, with reservations available. The converted-trailer bathhouse stands out as a practical detail worth noting: reviewers describe it as exceptionally clean, with solid water pressure and enclosed shower space free from the bugs common in open-air shower houses. Boat rentals, including pontoons, are available on-site at rates reviewers describe as among the most affordable in the area. Fishing, kayaking, and swimming round out the on-water activity options. Campers planning a broader Upper Peninsula itinerary can browse campgrounds near De Tour Village or consider Drummond Island Township Park Campground as an alternative base. Reservations are recommended for anyone planning ahead.

Family owned

This is a smaller campground that is family owned. There are both seasonal and rental sites. They have the most affordable boat rentals I have seen out of everywhere. We rented a pontoon twice and went fishing off of it. The site was so quiet and peaceful and the staff is super friendly and helpful. The battery died on our boat the second day and they quickly came out with a fresh battery. I was most impressed with the bathrooms. Bathrooms can sometimes make or break a camping trip. They basically converted a trailer into a bathroom (2 sides to it) and shower. It was the cleanest campground bathroom I ever saw and I felt like I was at home in there. They had either a candle or air freshener in their as well making it feel even cleaner. Great water pressure and you don’t have all those bugs watching you like in most shower houses lol. We will definitely return.
