We loved this campground. Everything was clean and neat. We stayed in the West Campground, the sites are more secluded and sites 140 thru 160 are on asphalt pads. Copper Harbor is a nice little town, we stayed for a week and found enough to keep us busy. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We camped here 3 days without reservations, and got lucky since the west campground was full. There were two large groups that consumed most of the sites in the west campground, so the park opened the east campground to accommodate us and a few others. They also opened the showers and restrooms for about 10 campers. This is just an example of the service. Fort Wilkins is a historic fort adjacent to the campground free to campers. Well worth visiting. The Cooper Harbor is an interesting area with a fantastic lighthouse. Not much hiking etc. in the park. Sites are well maintained and spacing is reasonable; not overcrowded. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped here 3 nights and enjoyed it very much. There are 3 campgrounds (East, West & Organization) all located on Lake Fanny Hooe. Even without reservations and the East campground closed, we did not have any problem finding a pull through site. Since this is a Michigan State Park, a State Park permit is required to camp ($8 per visit or $29 annual - nonresidents). The permit also includes entrance fees into the Fort Wilkins Complex, a 19th century Army post, which is adjacent to the campground. The park has a mini cabin for rent, a park store and laundry facilities. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed in the full hookup sites. They are quite large and have all the amenities including cable. However, be sure to ask for a site with hookups on the left or be prepared to bring an extra water and sewer hose and possibly an electric extension. I was able to park our trailer at an angle in such a way that we could run water and electric to the post located most inconveniently on the right side of the site. The owners really should consider modernizing their hookups to the current standard. That said, this was a very nice place to stay; the owner/manager was very nice and accommodating when we asked to stay in a our site two additional nights. The place was very quiet and peaceful. Copper Harbor is the best kept secret of the Midwest! Be sure to have dinner at Harbor Haus German restaurant in town, it was a wonderful, memorable meal. We would definitely come back to this place! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Free wi-fi internet was just added 2 weeks ago. Considering the water/ele. sites were $10/night less than full-hookups (includes wi-fi but no cable/sewer), we probably would pick those sites if we were to return. We have no kids and had plenty to do to entertain ourselves with all the mountain biking, road biking and kayaking opportunities in the area. Rumor is that there's no fish in the lake, but we only fished from the docks. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is the only campground with sewer hookups in the area, the have no activities planned anytime. This is not a "Resort" atmosphere at all, the clubhouse is small and has nothing except a pop and 1 vending machine. The showers were clean and the grounds were always in good shape. They do have a small swimming area on the Lake. I will return again and stay only because the have sewer and water. My only reason for a six rating is that a "Resort" campground you would think they would have some activities for kids and /or a pool. They camp store was stocked and had nice t-shirts and sweatshirts to buy. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
