A stone’s throw from the North County Trail system (MM MI-287.5) discover your boujee hippie micro-cabin, a cozy Lake Superior retreat nestled within the beautiful Gitche Gumee RV Park. The rustic comfortable amenities will ease the need to be in the mix of the Marquette Maze. A mere 8.5 miles from downtown Marquette – jump onto the Iron Ore Heritage Trail for an easy ride into town for the Saturday and Wednesday Farmers Market. Walk across M-28 at the campground entrance to find the secret beach- over to 2.0 miles of sand beach with prime open-water swimming. But don’t underestimate Lake Superior – She will transform from millpond flat to a 5’0” break in 15 minutes – calling heavy water lovers ; ) Build a beach fire and wait for the Borealis to reveal itself – smell the north. Enjoy the on-site Red Pine Brewery tasting room for a horn of Amber Red Ale or Lunar Shock Belgium witbier before you drift off to dreams of Valhalla.

Perfect Spot for a UP getaway

This quaint cabin was perfect for our group. The cabin was very clean, beds were comfortable and the location was great for our weekend adventure to pictured rocks shoreline. Brad and Camille were very responsive and empathetic to all of our needs during our stay. We would stay again, and recommend staying here to others.

A cozy cabin near Lake Superior

With pets

The camping cabin was exactly as described! It was a small, yet adorable cabin. We enjoyed a sunset across the road along with a beach fire. We rode our 4-wheeler on the trails attached to the campground. Brad and Camille were helpful and friendly but didn’t bother us at all. The cabin was clean and welcoming. The campground had historic character and offered additional amenities. We would love to return again.
