Lake Superior Beach Perfection
1 site · RV, Tent1 acre · Lake Linden, MI
What more do you need than a private camping site and your 125' of your own pristine Lake Superior beachfront access? Well, there is the need of a fire ring so we added that, too! Everything else you will to bring to enjoy the million dollar views. Oh, and on the opposite side of the camping site is quiet slough which is great for smooth water paddling and exploring.
Down the gravel road about 1/3 miles are logging roads to hike, bike and explore. OHV trails are a couple miles away but check local maps for detailed information.
There is a port-a-john available. You will need to bring your own firewood if you desire a campfire.

The Little Slice
2 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents1 acre · Zeba, MI
Just off the Skanee Road in Skanee, MI sits a clean, comfortable camper waiting for you. This camper, which can sleep up to 4, is a great way to enjoy some comforts while still "camping" in the woods. The property itself is small but does also offer a second tent site or place to set up your own camper. Very centrally located for access to a variety of the area's outdoor hot spots.
"The Finns", a local restaurant bar has good dining and a friendly atmosphere and is located directly across the street from the site. There is also great year-round fishing & hunting opportunities in the area as well as extensive groomed trail systems and atv riding.
There are plenty of small comforts available to you in this setting, but be sure to pack your own sleeping bags and pillows for this trip.

Bear Lake Meets da Yellow Dog
2 sites · Lodging, Tents10 acres · Marquette, MI
The land around Bear Lake was divided into 10-acre parcels in the 1970s using an original logging trail. Logging artifacts have been found on the property. The Yellow Dog River is a legendary trout stream, and many artists have found that the river satisfies their need for the wild.
We are 20 miles (app) north of Marquette, which is my home town. It is a destination for bikers, skiiers, and outdoor rec folk! There are so many things to see and do in Marquette, so make sure to plan enough time to check out the town! Also, just six miles to our north is historic Big Bay. A lumber town back in the day, it is full of history. Check out the Thunder Bay Inn, where parts of Anatomy of a Murder, starring Jimmy Stewart and Lee Remick were filmed. Don't miss going to the Lumberjack to see where the actual murder took place, either! You will find good eats and perhaps even some live music at either establishment. You'll also find everything you need in the way of groceries, and gas at Cram's General Store, where there's also a laundromat. Burns landing has the historic Burns family home renovated in a park setting, and a public beach access to mighty Lake Superior. Yellow Dog falls is a short drive on Co. Road 510, and on the way be sure to climb Thomas Rock overlook. There are new bike trails if you're into that as well! Stay awhile. You'll be glad you did!
We strive to offer peace and serenity to our guests, and love to share these woods with those needing tranquility and respite from a busy world. In this sensitive environmental area, we have only two sites to keep traffic down, enhance our visitors experience, and to protect the wildlife here.
Unplug with us, eh!

The best camping near Baraga State Park guide
Overview
About
Good things come in small packages, as they say. And while Baraga State Park, on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, measures only 56 square acres, its location on the beautiful Keweenaw Bay of Lake Superior puts it squarely in the “good things” category. Along with tent and RV campsites, the park offers one teepee and one mini-cabin for rent, plus access to a short nature trail. Still, the draw of Baraga State Park is Keweenaw Bay, where visitors can be found swimming, fishing, and boating during the warmer months.
When to go
The ideal time to visit Baraga State Park is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and the park is full of life. However, autumn also offers a spectacular display of fall foliage. Winters can be harsh, with heavy snowfall limiting access to certain areas, making it less ideal for visitors.
Know before you go
- Check the weather forecast before your visit to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
- Remember to bring insect repellent and sunscreen to protect against the elements.
- Wear appropriate footwear for hiking and exploring the diverse terrain.
- Be aware of park hours, which may vary seasonally, and plan your trip accordingly.
- Stay informed about any park advisories or closures before setting out on your adventure.
