Welcome to our 40-acre property—a beautiful blend of woods and farm. Whether you're looking to explore nature or just relax, there's something here for everyone. We have two sites for your various camping styles. Our Apple Tree site accommodates tents only and our Lupine site accommodates tents, camper vans, pop up campers and toy haulers.
Wander through a mix of short forest trails and open space, or enjoy a stroll through our gardens (while our campsite is pet friendly, we do ask that you keep your pets out of the garden areas). Wildlife is abundant—keep an eye out for deer, birds, and more. Our pond is a perfect spot to unwind as you listen to frogs and watch turtles and ducks.
Wild apple trees and thimbleberries dot the property and you're welcome to pick from them when they are in season. A nearby trail connects directly to town and larger trail systems, making it easy to explore the area on foot or by bike/ATV.
We’re just up the road from Hungarian Falls, a beautiful nature preserve with scenic hiking trails, swimming spots, and cascading waterfalls. The historic town of Calumet is only 7 minutes away, home to charming shops, dining, and part of the Keweenaw National Historical Park. Local attractions include:
Swedetown Recreation Area – mountain biking and hiking trails
Calumet Lions Park – disc golf, horseshoes, and nature trails
Calumet Golf Course – only 2 minutes away from us
Calumet Township Waterworks Park – volleyball, basketball, picnic areas, and Lake Superior access
Heading south, you’ll find more adventures within 30 minutes, including Nara Nature Park, Michigan Tech Trails, Maasto Hiihto Trails, and the Portage Canal. For bigger excursions, Mt. Bohemia is just 40 minutes north, and Copper Harbor—with epic views and even more trails—is a bit further beyond.
Although we’re close to several towns and outdoor destinations, our property is peaceful and private. It’s the perfect basecamp for your Keweenaw adventure.

120 acres of country paradise to use as your base camp for adventuring in the Keweenaw. 20 minutes from Houghton and 20 minutes from Baraga/L’Anse. Snowmobile and ATV trail #3 is just a short cruise down Donken-Tapiola Road. Furry friends are always welcome and are able to be off leash! Turtle Pond Site has an approx. 12x30 foot level gravel pad and a fire pit on a small pond frequented by turtles, ducks, deer, birds, and even an occasional beaver. There is a 100 year old Finnish Homestead a short walk down a mowed trail. Guests are encouraged to take a look, but please don't enter the buildings as their integrity is unknown.
We strive to continue to improve our property every year. This year, we are working to improve the pond health and its borders. An updated photo is included in our listing; but you may notice small differences as the property settles back after being disrupted during this improvement. We were able to maintain the privacy that guests compliment in our reviews while also clearing away unnecessary overgrowth.

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.
Intentionally being minimalists beyond a fire ring and picnic table, there is a port-a-john (of humble means) to make your stay comfortable. You will need to bring your own firewood if you desire a campfire.

Escape to your own private slice of Lake Superior's wild shoreline. Nestled on a wooded acre with a sun-dappled clearing perfect for camping, this secluded retreat offers something truly rare: a private beach on the shores of one of the world's great lakes, just steps from your site.
Follow the boardwalk over the wetlands to your own stretch of Superior's shore — where you can hunt for agates and glowing Yooperlites, paddle out in the two provided kayaks, swim, or simply sit and watch the waves roll in. No crowds. No noise. Just you and the lake.
Back at camp, gather around the fire pit as the stars come out, share a meal at the picnic table, or set out on the water in one of the provided kayaks to explore the coastline at your own pace. The newly widened, graveled driveway makes arrival easy, so you can spend less time maneuvering and more time unwinding.
When adventure calls, the legendary Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park and the breathtaking Lake of the Clouds are just a few miles down the road — offering world-class hiking, mountain biking, and some of the most stunning scenery the Upper Peninsula has to offer.
This is the UP at its finest — rugged, beautiful. Please be aware that on this stretch of the beach, there are many cabins and summer homes, so there will be neighbors on either side of the camping site.

Great place to stay with kids, family or just adults. We had to move from original campground and found this place an hour away. It was worth it! Beautiful sandy beach, big fire pit and extras near cabins. Kayaks, paddle boards, two docks, cabins, hotel, and two spots for rv's. Electric and water hook up. They turned their pole barn garage into an entertainment area, with washer/dryers, extra bathroom with shower, and outdoor standing bar with sitting. We used this area to cook breakfast outside, with roof over our head. I also used the shower, so I could take longer hot showers then our RV let's us. Easy to find off highway. Didn't mind the sounds of cars going by. Our dogs loved the beach and water. We went more to the side so little kids could enjoy the main beach area. Very nice outdoor sauna. Saw people and kids go in, then jump in lake, and start all over. Only 45 minutes to Marquette, and we visited a few tourist stops. We will be back for sure!

This site is one of a kind. It was clear that the owners took the time to think things through when they set it up. They put signs up with clear instructions for the sauna, water pump, outdoor bathroom, trash, and firewood. They included plenty of toys for outdoor fun (canoe, kayaks, beach toys, etc).
The beach was beautiful, private, peaceful, and clean. The site, itself, was perfect. Easy pull-in and hook up.
We drive a 35ft Class A RV pulling a Jeep. Pulling in was easy, and our rig fit well. Backing out is more challenging, but very doable.....it is easier with a spotter on the outside. This site was perfect an RV, towing a vehicle.
The hosts were terrific. Steve was very helpful and communicative. He was very patient and walked through things with me when I had questions. He really cared that we had a fun and easy time at the site.
I highly recommend this site. We will definitely be returning.

We absolutely loved camping on Steve’s land (Premium Keweenaw Beach RV Site)! The views are spectacular. Steve and Jayne are wonderful hosts! We called them with a question and they were super helpful and very easy to talk with, felt like we had been friends for years :) They have thought of everything you may want or need, and it is all in really good condition! We really liked the shower to rinse your feet off when coming off the beach. There were signs with very good instructions on how to use everything, we really appreciated that for the sauna :) We absolutely recommend this beautiful property and plan on coming back again next year!

My friends and I had such a good time here! Dax was super cool and communicative. He also has the most obedient dogs I’ve ever seen. Our dog barked at them and they didn’t even glance at her! Their eyes stayed locked in on their owner. So cool to witness! The lake was also beautiful and we loved kayaking and swimming. The sauna and jumping into the lake combo was my favorite! The garage is huge and filled with movies, games, a pool table (also my fave), and has a couch and a place to eat as well. And they sell really cute things. There’s a bathroom and tight shower with hot water. You can also use their washing machine and dryer for five bucks. They have a kitchen there too! Man, this whole place was great. I would without a doubt book another stay here in the future. Thanks so much!

Location, location, location. A beautiful beachfront camp feels like Cape Cod or Maine, very unique and special for the U.P.. Visited some beaches around the world & this really is just as special, everyday the lake looked different, very scenic by itself. Never stayed somewhere this close to the water.
Perfect sandy beach and amazing views. Also the property has everything, from a sauna on the beach, to a couple great fire pits, and deck overlooking everything. Most importantly, it has electric, water, and a toilet/bathroom. Makes the place perfect with truly everything you need for RV camping so you don’t have to think of anything.
The sauna made it special, going from Lake Superiors slightly chillier waters into the sauna a back again is a perfect cherry on top. Definitely worth checking out, the best HipCamp I’ve been to so far.

I just wanted to share how amazing our trip was! The beach was perfect, with hardly anyone around, and everything was extremely clean. All the hook-up's worked perfectly, and I loved using the sauna and taking multiple dips in the lake, even in mid-September. The starry skies were breathtaking, and we even caught a glimpse of the Northern Lights!
Steve, our host, was fantastic to work with and kindly let us use some toys for the kiddos. We also visited the beautiful waterfalls, which were a highlight. My 3-year-old had an absolute blast! Overall, it was an excellent trip, and I’m already looking forward to staying there again in the future.

We had a pleasant stay at Breanne’s Hipcamp site. It’s a lovely meadow with a stream beside it. It’s a rustic spot with no water or bathrooms but really beautiful in the late summer with views of the Portage Canal. While it’s not far off the road, it’s not a busy road and there was virtually no traffic overnight - just the sound of the water trickling down the hillside.

Steve’s property is more beautiful in person than the pictures. My husband and I brought our 3 year old and baby for a quick weekend getaway and now my son talks about going back every day. We got to pick blueberries on the property, watch the amazing sunrise and sunsets, take the kayak out, build sand castles, cook all our food via campfire, and view wildlife (ex: bald eagle). It is an outdoors kids dream. Neighbors are very friendly but still get plenty of privacy. RV hookup very easy. Location easy to find (we had no problems at 11pm pitch dark out). We plan to return next year during spring break!

Great location for nearby a waterfall tour!
A group of 5 friends and I enjoyed the sauna, lake and garage set up equipped with a tiki bar and couches. Very cozy for a change in weather or escape from the bugs! However, We came prepared with a screen pop up tent (highly recommend bringing along from Walmart about $70) This made evenings a little more enjoyable with bugs at prime season ;-) Dax was very welcoming from the start, and extremely accommodating! Without asking, They also supplied an extension cord for electric- making it easy to charge phones! I must admit the highway traffic nearby was a bit loud but didn’t make sleeping uncomfortable. Just hard to find the silence you might be looking for in the woods. Overall a wonderful campsite on the lake, loaded with firewood and a nice host! You can’t go wrong!

A gem of a place! You don’t get much closer to the beach than this place. Pristine views of Lake Superior, the sandy shores and crystal clear water is just a few great things about this place. The rv spot had all the hook ups for my 50amp service, good fresh water pressure and sewage dump connector all easily accessible. The site wasn’t hard to find and I had no issues driving my Class C motorhome on the gravel driveway to the parking spot. The Adirondack chairs and bench swing was a great place to sit and watch the sunrise and stars at night. The property area was quiet and peaceful, walking the sandy shores with the gentle waves coming in was therapeutic to the mind. This place is a winner, I would definitely go back again! The host was very friendly and helpful making sure I had no issues finding the place and setting up camp there.
