George Crosby - Manitou State Park is a decent park, but it does not compare to Split Rock, Gooseberry Falls, and Tettegouche State Parks that are nearby. You must be prepared to backpack into your campsite and if you are not used to backpacking it may be a difficult hike. We ended up hiking nearly four miles one way and my 9 and 11 year olds had a difficult time, even though I carried the tent and all of the heavy gear.

The hikes are pretty and if it weren't so close to the other parks on the North Shore of Lake Superior I would give it four stars. These are primitive campsites and do not have flush toilets or showers.
