    With tall sand dunes and waterfront waves, the wind just adds to Mother Nature's rugged perfection at Lake Michigan Campground.

    Enjoy the fabulous lake view and keep an eye out for a variety of ducks waddling the shores. Nearby boat and canoe rentals mean you don't have to bring your own. In a spot excellent for tent camping, if you don't enjoy the sand here, you're just dune it wrong.

    A simple PRIVATE and affordable campsite should be this easy! Come sleep in a levitating tent already set up; you just need your own sleeping bag and pillow. Feel free to bring your own camper or tent too, every site has enough room! These sites are really spread out and you can’t see any other sites, neighbors are out of sight, you have privacy here! All sites have their own private entrances, you can’t see any sites or buildings, they are very spaced-out. This location is situated PERFECTLY central to the major UP attractions Pictured Rocks, Tahquamenon Falls and Kitchittikippi. And there’s even a convenience store within walking distance! Mention your staying with us for a discounted shower in Newberry (“Pleasant Moose” hotel).

    Beautiful campgrounds. A bit of highway noise, not bad. Surf sound is relaxing. Clean camp areas and restrooms. Will definitely camp here again!
