"If your from Wisconsin this sits at the very north of the State. If your looking for areas to visit while camping here you may have a little bit of a drive."
"Wow, Copper Falls has quickly jumped to my number one state park experience in Wisconsin. I’ve lived in Wisconsin my whole life and did not expect such beauty in this northern part of the state."
$10 / night
"I have been visiting the falls for years as it is one of the most beautiful (and little known) places in northern Wisconsin."
"Free campsites within walking distance to upper and lower falls."
"Conveniently located on Hwy2 but you could hear truck traffic at your site... cell tower right next to the campground meant we had full service when needed. We would stay here again no doubt!"
"Best part is that there is a lot of room to walk your dog as it backs up to a forest. Also, the gas station is also a bar and its a great place to have a cold one after driving all day!"
"8 Mile drive off the main road. Mostly paved, some gravel, but all smooth. We had the place to ourselves. A short walk down to the waterfall."
"Also got a bit nervous hearing timber wolves in the distance for a few hours at night then again in the early morning. But we practiced good camp hygiene and they left us alone."
$15 - $35 / night
"Saw a deer walking through camp. Nearby brewery was a nice treat! Sites we stayed at were pull through sites with full hook ups."
"Right off highway, but traffic noise not too bad inside our rv. Must register online but had until 10:00 pm same day to do so."
"The campground is on a no-wake lake so great for fishing."
$4 - $20 / night
"So the drive-in sites are literally all right next to each other, no privacy at all."
"Presque Isle Campground is located at the southern edge of the Porcupine Mountains State Park in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. "
"One is tucked away. Another is in the middle but the plentiful trees separate you.
A local man told us that all the money earned goes back into the campground."
$30 / night
"On Lake Superior near Ironwood. Close to waterfalls and right on the Lake."
"No taxes, entrance fees, reservation fees, none of that. The center for agate huting, better have a good eye & lots of luck. They are there, but few & far between."
"This spot is a few feet away from Lake Superior. Water and electric. We had site 19 on pavement but it wasn't level if that matters to you."
"The sites don’t have much privacy but they’ve got a great view of Lake Superior. There are restrooms on site with paid showers and a brand new playground."
ScoutThe facilities were not in great condition. The place was kind of run down. Lots of things didn't work. The old lady was nice. She did let us run our generator. Our site had no electricity and we were by ourselves. Because of the cost and conditions We probably will not return.
TravelerBeautiful spacious sites. Lake access and great walking. Enjoyed our 4 night stay.
RangerThe view of the bay is amazing. Also, great spot to access artesian spring water. Campground is not private at all, but everyone is friendly.
GuideThe Union Bay Campground in the Porcupine Mountains is a beautiful campground on Lake Superior. Our campsite was on the lake with a walking path next to the site that is accessible to other campers. The campsite views were amazing.
While we were camping the flies were unbearable. Bug spray was no match for the flies, so we were forced to spend most of our time in the screen room.
The campground was close to all of the hiking in the area as well as some good beach for rock hounds.
TravelerBig Lake Campground is a great spot if you’re looking for a simple and peaceful camping experience. The facilities are very basic—vault toilets and no showers—but they are clean and well-maintained. Firewood is available for sale on-site, which is super convenient.
The real highlight is the beautiful natural surroundings. The campground is nestled in a quiet, wooded area, perfect for relaxing and disconnecting. There are some really nice hiking trails nearby, offering scenic views and opportunities to spot wildlife.
If you’re okay with minimal amenities and want to enjoy nature, this is a great spot. Perfect for tent campers and anyone looking for a rustic getaway!
TravelerCopper Falls State Park is a fantastic destination for outdoor enthusiasts. The hiking trails are well-maintained and offer beautiful scenic views, making for an enjoyable trek through nature. The campsites are spacious and provide a good amount of privacy, allowing for a peaceful camping experience. The bathrooms are quite basic but sufficient for a state park.

Overall, a wonderful place to camp and hike!
GuideWe were happy to find a view site for our 25' RV on the lower loop. Our site had good separation from others. Nice and quiet except for the guy who had to run his toy car up and down the campground road. We were able to walk to town easily and enjoyed exploring Bayfield and the Apostle Island Lakeshore. Electric at the site, water accessible at 2 points within the campground.
ScoutNice clean and quiet site. No facilities or cell service. Easy access to mountain bike trails. Keep it clean if you use it 🙏
GuideStayed here in September for a few days, and occupied site 1 and 2. Sites are good sized and clean. Our two sites were great, but if I didn't care about being near the lake, I would look at the new sites they put in the wooded area. They were a little more "remote", The clientele mostly consisted of fisherman and bird hunters when I was here, so it seems to attract the more long term stays and not overnighters. The bathroom / shower combination is adequate and is reminiscent of my younger days at summer camp. They have some playground equipment both at the main loop and the wooded loop, this proved to be a lifesaver for my 4 year old. I also found, since this is further from town, it is very dark here and great for star gazing.
