Lovely couple of nights

A last-minute change in our travel plans found us in the Lake Superior area with no camping reservations. We secured a tent site (T-1) here and were quite pleased. The site was private and level, and close to a shower area and laundry, both of which we sorely needed. As an added plus, the restaurant offered an opportunity for a hearty meal and drinks. The pizza here was great, as were the cheese curds, and the hospitality was wonderful. The owner gave us good advice on a drive up the North Shore of Superior.

If we found ourselves in the area again, we'd return here for sure.

Hidden gem

Best pizza in the county. On a beautiful lake for some fishing or just a relaxing cruise.

Enjoy a typical "up north" Wisconsin experience!

The Backyard at Amnicon Lake (formerly Amnicon Acres) is a great place to enjoy a typical "up north" Wisconsin experience, especially on a Packer game night! 

General: New owners took over this place on December 31, 2020, and changed the name to The Backyard at Amnicon Lake (it was formerly Amnicon Acres). There is both a campground and a mobile home park, plus a boat dock, and a bar and grill. Most of the sites appeared to be occupied by seasonal (summer) campers but when I called to make a reservation, I was assured a space. 

Site quality: Sites are (mostly) on grass. Site 35 had electricity and water. No privacy or separation between sites, as would be expected in an RV park. We weren’t sure the site would be level, but it was once we maneuvered our van a bit. 

Bathhouse: Two stalls, two showers. Decently clean. It was a bit of a hike to them from our site but not unreasonable. Appreciated
