Beautiful Site

Stayed here in van camper in September. There are several sites, lots of privacy. Road up from North Shore was a bit rough in places, but destination is worth it.

High Falls

Love the North Shore! When you're staying at this campground make sure you head over to the Grand Portage High Falls! They also have the medium falls which is quite nice too.
