About half the sites are in trees, the rest are open and satellite friendly. Sites are not overly wide and some hookups are side by side. The staff was friendly and we were told that they have good food but we didn't get to sample it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We liked this campground, it met all our basic needs. Sites were long and level. The ones in the open were side-by-side, which meant that we were close to our neighbors in the back, but we had a large "front yard" that did not have the neighbors sewer in it. Sites vary in size. Some are in a setting that resembles a pine forest. Others are in the open and therefore are roof-top Internet satellite dish friendly. There are a few small sites, but most will accommodate the largest of rigs. Sites are level packed dirt. Water pressure was very good and the electricity was stable. All sites had fire-rings and picnic tables. Roads in the park were gravel. Staff was friendly and had excellent pastries and pasties for sale. The park was clean, quiet and a pleasant place to stay. We are full-time RVers and lived here for a week. We would return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I have been to this older park several times in the past when it was run by some older folks who were letting things slide. Back then I would have given this park a 3. New owners have made some improvements (60+ channel Cable TV and working, on site WIFI) and have done a better job of park maintenence. Most of the full hookup, pull-thrus are in the open, but there are some sites in the pines. The sites and roads are mostly gravel/dirt with what passes for grass up here. The river is across the road and Lake Superior and the town are about a mile. Not much in the park or town but beautiful Porcupine Mountain State Park is only a 20 minute drive. Not a great park, but the best full facility park in the western Upper Penninsula. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We had a reservation here for one night. We arrived in the afternoon and did a quick drive through the park to see what it looked like. We were disappointed. It was wide open. No shade trees, privacy, or seclusion of any kind. There were some sites right on Lake Superior, but they didn't even look that nice. The camping sites are right on top of each other. Not the type of camping we prefer. You will get to know your neighbors real well at this type of campground. We actually left and did not stay the night. We wouldn't return to this campground for another visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Part of the MI DNR Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park, right on Lake Superior. Some sites right on the lake, but had a rocky shore, not something you could easily wade in. Boat access/launch as well as canoe & bike rentals right at campground. The state park is HUGE and has tons of hiking, waterfalls and small lakes. You can backpack in to the 'backcountry' where there are primitive sites with fire rings and bear poles. At main campground the sites were good size, had fire rings, and they have a small playground and a volleyball area. Neighboring sites share the electric towers, so depending on how you are parked you may need up to a 50 foot cord. Campground had clean restrooms and free individual shower rooms; the rest of the park has pit toilets. Camp hosts did free coffee & hot cocoa every morning. Would have rated it much higher if it weren't for the terrible flys. They were everywhere and were biting. Other than the flys everything was outstanding. We camped here in a Motorhome.
