I have a 5 acre parcel of forest land with a camping area, including fire pit, and outhouse. This land is for the true wilderness camper experience. If you like it quiet, dark at night and no city lights this is wonderful! Rugged and secluded. No other campers in sight. Learn more about this land: If you truly like wilderness camping deep in the UP of Michigan this is the perfect spot for you. Just 20 minutes from Marquette, and 20 minutes to Munising.  This is the perfect home base to explore Munising or Marquette. Totally isolated 5 acres in the woods. Extremely quiet and peaceful, surrounded only by nature.  Fire pit available, very rustic outhouse. Nestled in hemlocks and other conifers. Beautiful in summer and autumn. This location is just outside of Marquette county. Lake Superior is just a few minutes away. The camping area is truly for the  hardy soul and nature lover.  I will supply plenty of information about the area and things to do. Just message me if you have any questions. The camping site does not have an address. I will meet campers in the village of 'Deerton' which is only a few minutes from the camping area. You must arrive by 7:00 PM due to the location! I would like to add that June can be a bad month for bugs depending on the weather. Late summer and fall are beautiful times to camp in the UP. Any questions just ask.

I would like to add that June can be a bad month for bugs depending on the weather. MOSQUITOES may be hatching so please come prepared. I will also supply free fire wood for the month of June. A good fire can also help. Again, it just depends on the timing and the weather. I get that question a lot so that is my best answer. The drive in is short, but a bit rocky in a couple spots. SUV is recommended, but has been done with a car taking it slow and easy!

Autumn Paradise
What a perfect slice of fall. It was everything my pumpkin spice loving, hiking obsessed, dog loving soul needed. My partner and I stayed here with our pup. We loved the sweet solitude of this place. The bumpy drive into the woods was just the right amount to feel totally tucked into the forest. We loved having precut wood and everything we needed. The space was kept up with lots of tlc. Our pup loved running around in the leaves and the freedom of being of leash. Just a short drive from the shore of Lake Superior or countless hiking trails in the area. It's the perfect getaway. Already thinking about the next time we can get up there!

Unplugged
Just you and nature. It’s a comfortable spot that has endless possibilities. There is zero internet so you are completely unplugged; it’s nice. Judy is a delightful host who cares about your comfort. I chose the location for the seclusion and the location. It sits in the middle of the UP so everything is just an hour or two away. Sand Point Beach was a highlight at only 40 minuets away, and Bond Falls did not disappoint at 1.5 hours away. Highly recommended!
