Learn more about this land: This private”Gem”of a spot is located on the south side of beautiful Drummond Island with over 350’ of direct shoreline and lakefront access. The site is just over 3 acres of pristine boreal forest to wander, explore and learn. Roam the shoreline of Lake Huron hunting for pudding stones and fossils that abound or watch the freighters pass in the distance. Easy in, easy out. CAUTION There is a 11’4” height clearance restriction through a tunnel that you must use to access the camp site. Even small motor homes and Campers may not fit. Please check before booking a trip. Large campers and 5th wheels and even some smaller motor homes are discouraged because of often wet and soggy conditions. Pop ups and light campers are acceptable most of the time. Prepare for a multitude of weather conditions (3season gear) as the island weather changes very fast.This private”Gem”of a spot is located on the south side of beautiful Drummond Island with over 350’ of direct shoreline and lakefront access.

Roam the shoreline of Lake Huron hunting for pudding stones and fossils that abound or watch the freighters pass in the distance. Very private with easy in, easy out access. CAUTION 11’4” clearance on road to site! Large motorhomes and/or travel trailers over 2 axles are discouraged. Island weather is very unpredictable with wet and windy conditions, so plan and pack accordingly (3 season gear). A long extension cord(50ft) is needed if you plan to camp on the waters edge to reach the pole. Also please respect the neighboring properties and their boundaries and refrain from loud music and noise especially after dusk. Dogs are always welcomed, but please clean up after them and be aware of where they are at all times. Look for the red Uksa’s Cove sign at the drive as you arrive. Happy Camping😁

Perfect drummond island getaway!!!!
I loved it! Almost total seclusion and total privacy. Cooking breakfast while ships sailed by was amazing as well as the view. Nice and level it has an older outhouse for a toilet and some cooking supplies like fire grates and such so plan accordingly

5 ⭐️ for view 2 ⭐️ for ammenities
Place is beautiful! Plenty of room for several tents along the water. Bring river shoes it’s very rocky all the way out. The outhouse is pretty nasty and that’s also where a lot of the cooking utensils are stored so I’d bring my own in the future. Also when he says firewood is provided he means you have to go in the woods and cut your own so bring a chainsaw if you don’t want to spend a lot of time cutting it up by hand.

James’ land is simply perfect, I really enjoyed my stay! There is an old abandoned trailer on the property, but set up in front of it and enjoy the peace and quiet! The sunsets, the water, the ships… it was great! Shoutout to neighbors (it’s so heavily wooded, you can’t see or hardly even hear them) Nancy and Greg who helped me with a jump after my car battery died. Thanks guys!

Camping on the shores of Lake Huron
I loved camping on Jame’s land, it was phenomenal and we plan to go back. There are no visible houses just nature but it’s not completely secluded, you are within earshot of neighbors. (This made us feel safe) like others have said the trailer on the site at first is off putting but within an hour of being there it disappears and you don’t even notice it. Also bring water shoes if you plan to enjoy the water.

James’s land was exactly what we were looking for! Beautiful campsite on the lake. He communicated all the important details efficiently and in a timely manner. The dogs absolutely loved being off leash and living their best lives right beside us. We hope to be back another time!
