Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Rossport is a destination from which to enjoy many land and water activities.   The protected waters have become a dream location for kayakers, canoers, and boaters.  The wreck of the Gunilda lies just offshore and is a popular site for technical dives.  The Casque Isle Hiking Trail begins in Rossport.  Other favourite pastimes are hunting, fishing, beachcombing, rock collecting, birdwatching, photography, golfing, and even sand castle building.  For wildlife lovers, there are frequent sightings of deer, moose, bear, eagles and blue heron; occasionally one can also observe otter, owls, pileated woodpeckers, fox, and wolves.  Winter activities include skiing, snowshoeing, and ice fishing, while snowmobilers can enjoy the miles of groomed trails linking the communities of the North Shore and offering the most scenic views and wilderness adventures in Ontario.The camp spot is on the shores of Lake Superior, with access to the water, for boating, kayaking, canoeing or swimming. Many beautiful sand beaches are nearby, just a few steps away from the camping area. Rossport is a quiet village in which to experience the beauty of nature, just a few mins off of highway 11-17.

Lakeside, Rossport
Kayaking Rossport
When we arrived we were cheerfully greeted by the host. He showed us where to park. Prior to our arrival he had brought over a picnic table to the site. There was also a fire ring with wood. Nice touch but we didn't make a fire. The site was recently graded, a soft base and very level. The softness did not created any problems with driving out. Sometimes this can be an issue with our heavy FWD campervan. There is a railroad that passes through Rossport but the noise of the few trains that passed by did not disturb us. The site is in a shallow protected bay of Lake Superior. We were able to launch our kayak the next morning for a beautiful paddle around the nearby shorelines. Saw a loon and the calm, clear waters allowed us glimpse into the depths of Lake Superior. There are some other long-term campers at this site. They were very friendly like the host. Still being very respectful of our privacy as well. A very wonderful overnight stay as we traveled our way around Lake Superior.

The directions to Lisa’s place were not very clear. Once we got there, it was a nice quiet location in a beautiful little village.

We stayed here on a long weekend and it was festive but respectful. The water added a lovely view and the location was easy to find. There is a train close by, something to keep in mind if that bothers you, I didn't mind it at all.
