    North Bay Shore Park

    Beautiful

    Right on the shores of Lake Michigan Most sites have asphalt pads and there is water and electric at the site There is also a dump station on the way in, which was clean and easy to access The sites are fairly close with not much privacy This side of the lake is very Mari so there is no beachfront at all, for people with a boat and wanting to launch it’s perfect but for rock hounds and beach walkers like me not so great. Not much hiking around either.

    On The Rocks Family Kampground

    Do not recommend

    Check yourself in and don’t expect to be welcomed by staff. Restrooms are filthy. Office, restaurant and bar only open Thursday through Saturday. When we messaged to ask when the restrooms will be cleaned, it took 2 days and a phone call to respond. Of you like customer service and clean facilities, this is not for you. There are more campgrounds to choose from in the area.

    Big Lake Campground

    Great Family and Dog friendly RV resort

    Clean bathrooms. Not overly fancy, but lots of sites and the two families that run this resort are super nice and accommodating. We felt welcomed like family and had multiple interactions with them. Within a minute of Lake Michigan.

    Octonto River - South Branch

    Peace for $5

    There are 2 campsites at this trailhead, pretty well spaced apart. 

    The first has more of an opening if solar and Starlink matter to you. The second was tucked in the back where the road turns around.

    There is a clean and maintained vault toilet.

    Unless you have the Golden or Access pass, it is $5/day.

    McCaslin Brook Dispersed site

    Shady, Creek-Side, $5 Fee

    There are three pull-in areas, with picnic tables and fire rings just off the road. Two *may* be large enough to handle more than 1 small rig/tent/popup. They are shaded and right by the creek, which gurgled along happily (and had some bugs in mid-August, but that was to be expected).

    We ultimately decided not to stay here simply because it was so shaded. While that made it nice and cool, it made solar & Starlink impossible. 

    There was no AT&T to speak of, but TMobile had 20 down/1 up.

    Daisy Field Campground — Potawatomi State Park

    Great State Park Campground Near Town

    Overall this camp was a great experience. There are nice trails that run by the water. The sites were nice with fire ring, table and bench. The sites were near one another but vegetation between to give some barrier. The mosquitoes were pretty heavy in late July. There was one shower house that seemed to be pretty busy most of the time. There was also a child's playground with lots of space. Overall it was a great place to visit and check out the area.

    Kewaunee RV & Campground

    5-Star Rating Awesome Campground

    This site is beautifully maintained with swimming pool, volley ball, game area, large park like setting to walk your dogs. Owners are the best. Variety of options for camping including cabins, laundry room, country store. Kewaunee is delightful with a lighthouse, stores and eateries. Minutes to Lake Michigan and Door County few miles away and 35 minutes into Green Bay. Will return.
