Boat-in access keeps crowds minimal at this National Park Service campground on South Twin Island in Lake Superior. The site requires advance reservations and charges $15 per night, with basic amenities including vault toilets, picnic tables, and designated fire rings. Campers can bring pets on leash.
The island setting provides direct lake access for kayaking and fishing, though weather conditions on Superior can change rapidly.
