Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Ultra private secluded island paradise located on lovely Madeline Island with 300 feet of lakeshore and stunning views of the coveted North Channel. Seven of the 22 Apostle Islands are in view on a clear day and not one electric light is visible from the property at night. Enjoy dramatic fog while you sip your morning coffee, frequent sailboat regattas during the day, and stunning double sunsets as they reflect across over 5 miles of open water. (ps. this reflective effect is also in play for the northern lights if you're lucky) Amenities: ZERO! Well, other than two fire pits and a propane grill (BYO propane if you want to use that) Expect a lumpy lawn with space for up to 8 tents located right on top of a 100 foot cliff leading straight down to lake superior. If needed, showers, bathrooms, etc. are located 1.2 miles away at Big Bay Town Park. (no entry fee required) There you can also find the best beach on the island and canoes for rent if you'd like to explore the massive lagoon behind it chalk full of fish. Pack in, pack out. Enjoy!Only camp site on the property, you cant miss it! Access via the driveway which connects to north shore drive. It's all up to you of course, but personally if I have more than two cars up there for the weekend I typically have the remainder park up by the road.

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    This campsite on Madeline Island offers breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere, making it ideal for campers seeking a peaceful retreat. Visitors often mention the stunning sunsets and the private, secluded setting, perfect for stargazing and enjoying nature's sounds. However, the terrain can be uneven, which might pose a challenge for tent campers or those with larger vehicles. Additionally, some guests noted that access to the lake can be tricky and the campsite isn't suitable for young children due to the steep cliffs.

    Amazing views; I would recommend bringing something to keep you off the ground because it is very uneven. If you bring a dog or kids, be very careful because it is not a joke when they say cliff. I will definitely be coming back!. My friends and I had a blast!.

    Such a gorgeous secluded spot. Perfect for folks without kids--the cliff face is close and steep. The view was incredible. We had some pretty serious wind for part of the time but when the wind died down it was peaceful and spectacular. We loved the proximity to the town campground facilities and how much solitude this site offered. We'll come back again for sure!

    Schuyler's spot is wonderful! The pictures don't lie. Madeline Island and Bayfield were very charming and we enjoyed our stay! We also got lucky with a clear night sky and had wonderful stargazing.
