Big Lake Campground

Reservations are available at Big Lake Campground, an established drive-in, walk-in, and boat-in facility in Algoma, Wisconsin, open from May 1 through mid-October. Sites accommodate RVs up to 70 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer, and the campground also provides showers, a dump station, and drinking water on-site. Pets are welcome.

Water access is a consistent draw here. The campground sits within a minute of Lake Michigan, which gives anglers and paddlers a practical reason to base a trip here. Boater traffic tends to stay manageable, keeping conditions workable for kayakers on the lake. Nearby, hikers will find trails with noticeable mountain bike activity, worth knowing if a quiet solo hike is the goal.

Cleanliness comes up in nearly every review. The facilities are described as well-maintained, and the staff receives repeated mention for being approachable and accommodating. WiFi is available but has drawn at least one complaint about streaming speeds, so a cellular backup is worth having. T-Mobile coverage has worked for at least one visitor when the WiFi fell short.

Campers exploring the Kewaunee area can find campsites near Kewaunee if Big Lake fills up, and nearby alternatives include Timber Trail Campgrounds and Ahnapee Shores Camping Resort a few miles north. Anglers, paddlers, and anyone planning a multi-day Lake Michigan itinerary will find this a practical and well-located base.
