Escape to Superior Beach Camp and immerse yourself in the beauty of 15 private wooded acres abutting an endless sand beach on the world’s greatest lake. We have a beautiful, private and spacious site which we call Agate that you have all to yourself. The site is situated on an 80' bluff overlooking Lake Superior, with lake views and surrounded by birch and aspen trees. A path within your campsite gives you access to a sandy beach on Lake Superior. Superior Beach Camp is 2.5 hours north of the Twin Cities and perfectly positions you to discover all the wonders of the Twin Ports. Or, if you choose, stay put and have a beach day! Set up your chair in the sand (or up above at the overlook) and take in the many moods of Mother Superior. Watch the ships come and go to the sparkly backdrop of Duluth’s city lights. The crackle of a driftwood fire on the beach provides the perfect soundtrack as you watch for shooting stars and the aurora. Stock up on supplies and explore the charming industrial town of Superior, WI – 10 minutes from your campsite. Spend a day mountain biking the Duluth Traverse and touring the city’s amazing tap room and cocktail scene – only a 20-25 minute drive away. If you’d like to venture further, you could meander up the North Shore. Or keep it local and check out Bayfield and the Apostle Islands – only 75 minutes East. Perhaps you’d like to experience world class trout fishing on the Brule River a half hour from Superior Beach Camp? (ask about our fishing guide!) Maybe Parks are your thing: Amnicon Falls, one of Wisconsin’s most beautiful State Parks, is reachable in 10 minutes by car. Drive a half hour further to Pattison State Park and take in Wisconsin’s tallest waterfall. On the Minnesota side, the magic of Jay Cooke State Park is 30 minutes west (and puts you on the doorstep of legit white water rafting). The options are plentiful year round. Whether you're looking for solace and relaxation in a blissful [great] lakeside setting or simply seeking a convenient place to rest your head while exploring the many adventures a stone’s throw from your campsite, there is something for everyone who camps here. Please note this is a new offering and primitive in nature as we begin our journey to share this special place with others. Please treat this as your own and remember to pack in any supplies or provisions you need, and leave no trace when you depart so our next guests can be greeted by the pristine beauty of Superior Beach Camp.Agate campsite is very large with a ton of room to spread out, dedicated access to the beach, beautiful Lake Superior views and plenty more as you explore the natural beauty of Superior Beach Camp. This is a secluded camping area with space on the lookout point to pitch a tent or two and plenty of space in the open area when you drive into Agate to setup additional camping spots, yard games, etc. **Please navigate and park vehicle(s) on the outer ring of the large open area when you drive into Agate. The middle area has softer soil and can get squishy when wet. Agate's bluff and path to the beach are a combination of natural rock, dirt and red clay soil. We've cleared a dedicated path but please be careful and mind your footing, especially when wet as it can get a bit slippery. Waterproof boots or shoes / sandals that you don't mind getting muddy and wet are recommended - especially when rain is in the forecast. The beach is open to roam and setup wherever you please within our property lines. Please do not venture past property markers and be respectful of our neighbors.

Agate Campsite

The campsite was nice and private and the view of the lake spectacular.Was disappointed lookout point was not as useable due to big crack and was not informed until after booking. Also booked based on pictures of site turned out they were from joining site no longer available. The site has no shade so keep in mind if hot and sunny as it was our first day. The privacy was very nice and toilet area close and very clean.The views spectacular and although a hike,the beach area was amazing. So..mixed feelings

Agate Campsite

We loved staying at SBC over the fourth of July for a beautiful, peaceful weekend. There is plenty of space to set up camp and it is a very clean spot. We loved the beach with the beautiful rocks on the shore as well as the waves and cool wood along the sand. It was our first time taking our young puppy camping so the private site was perfect for getting him used to what it's like. Our pup also loved the beach as he was running and chasing sticks in the water for hours while we swam and hung out. I would 100% recommend this spot and would love to go.back myself!

Memorable Stay at Agate Beach

We loved tent camping at Agate Camp! We stayed for two nights with our two children. We spent lots of time at the beach and fire pit. Highly recommend bringing rubber boots to wear to beach due to the clay and mud. If you have water shoes- like keens- recommend too due to the rocks before you get to sand in the water. Also- do a tick check when done- we brought three home with us. Thank you Matt for sharing this gem of a camp stay!

Agate Campsite

We loved camping on Matt’s land. It was a very private and open area with direct access to the beach and a separate short trail leading to a nice view.
