The Little Slice

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.

Camping near Ontonagon guide
Overview
Set on the shores of Lake Superior on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Ontonagon has an abundance of camping adventures. Affectionately known as the Porkies, the landscape of Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park ranges from idyllic Lake Superior beaches to rugged terrain perfect for hiking. Presque Isle River flows through the area, inviting anglers to reel in brook, rainbow, and brown trout. Family-friendly campgrounds here offer everything from rustic backcountry tent camping to RV campsites with 30-amp hookups, firepits, and picnic tables. For a unique opportunity to reconnect with nature, hike into safari canvas tents. Just south is Ottawa National Forest where campers can explore one million acres of sprawling wilderness. Along with gorgeous waterfalls along the Middle Branch of the Ontonagon River, Bond Falls Flowage offers excellent fishing prospects—namely walleye, northern pike, and panfish. Go on a rugged, dispersed camping escape, or park travel trailers up to 60 feet long at on-site RV sites with convenient access to drinking water, hot showers, and toilet facilities.
