Water is full of iron to the point I would not hook to RV. Neighbor told me he had to change his filter every 3 days. Cable was unwatchable. Unless it rains it is extremely dusty when a car passes your site. Would not recommend this park to anyone! We camped here in a Motorhome.

The web site looks WAY better then the campground. The campground reminded me of something out of a horror movie!! The place is just a dump. The web site says indoor movies on a big screen, and when we went in, the so called lodge we found it quite empty and the movie screen and video projector was no where to be found. The water in this campground was brown and looked like mud, it was very iron laden and it plugged our water filter up 3 times!! There is not a lot for the kids, the playground was a joke, I have more playground equipment in my back yard. And as for the so called Ranger Jeff, he was a nice, but very strange. The sites are not wide at all, we almost couldn't slide our sides out all the way. One plus is that it is across the street from lake superior, and it was very quiet. I think the proprietor is a shady person, only accepting cash and not having a refund policy. The roads are very dusty and the sites are not labeled clear at all. All I can say is we will not ever go back to this place again and I would definitely not recommend it to anyone, look elsewhere as there are much better campgrounds in the Marquette area.. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

For an RV park in a prima location, one would expect to pay a somewhat higher fee, but not $45 per night! I rated it a 4 mainly because of that. Not overly impressed with the sites, gravel pull through, not particularly level and with only a scrub of bushes, or maybe a tree between sites. The owner/operator "Ranger Jeff" is definitely a strange duck. Rather eccentric. Has about 20 different projects going on all at the same time, which means that not much overall gets accomplished. While he was pleasant enough to me, I can see from other posts that he can be odd to deal with. If he isn't in the office (which is rare) he can be really hard to find on the rather large property, tending to one of his many varied projects. His reservation and payment policies are bizarre, and the only reason we stayed there was because of its proximity to our daughter attending Northern Michigan Univ. The electricity at our site didn't work initially, but we got that problem fixed. On a positive note, his fudge operation is superb, but you would think you'd have access to some as part of his high price. Not - sold for about the same rate as what you pay in most other tourist traps. While I have nothing personal against the owner/operator, we won't be staying there again because it's over priced and somewhat chaotic. His web site is more appealing than the actual place, so camper beware. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a very nice city park with many full hookups. It is in a good location on the edge of town and is a quiet setting. Sites are good size and many were paved and shaded. TV available over the air. Most sites have to many trees for satellite TV. Staff was both helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were unable to use the sewer hook up on our site with full hook up because of trees on the site. We have a slide out and had to park between two trees that kept us quite far from the sewer hook up even with an extension added to the tube. There are a few small trees for shade but nearly no privacy. The sites are small. This campground is okay if you expect to do site seeing in the area and not to do much "real camping". We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very nice city-owned park just 4 miles outside of town. We stay here every year for a mountain bike race in August. The "lake front" sites are now a river since the big flood of '04, but still a very nice place with plenty of trees around. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
