Welcome to Medora Point, a breathtaking 6-acre peninsula nestled on picturesque Lake Medora Surrounded by crystal-clear waters, and lush greenery, this secluded haven offers an unforgettable experience for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike. Lake Medora becomes your playground, offering an array of water-based activities for all ages. Whether you're into swimming, fishing, kayaking, sailing, or paddleboarding, the calm and pristine waters beckon you to dive in and embrace the great outdoors. Come, enjoy the beach, the stars, the nature, and relax.Spend the night immersed in the forest, right on Lake Medora's edge. The site is located on a peninsula with over 1/2 mile of private waterfront and 6 acres — all yours to explore! Right off the peninsula are four islands that are public land. We highly recommend using our provided paddle boards and kayak to explore them! ***AMENITIES*** • 1 Kayak • 2 Stand Up Paddle Boards • Outhouse • Firewood • Firepit • Picnic Table • Beach **OTHER ITEMS TO NOTE** • Please bring your drinking water supply or something to filter from the lake with. Copper Harbor is a 4.5-mile drive away. There you can find restaurants, convenience stores, and free drinking water at the visitors center. • Verizon has good cell coverage. AT&T and T-Mobile have little to no coverage. There is free WiFi in Copper Harbor. • This land is new to us, we are constantly working to improve it and the amenities. Our dream is to build a small cabin, workshop, and sauna over the next few years. Occasionally, we are on the land slowly working towards our goal. We have a small camp a significant distance from yours. We won't bother you but feel free to stop by.

Between their communications and all the little extras that are provided, you can tell that the owners really care about you enjoying yourself: not only are they quick to respond through emails, but they willingly provide their phone number as a "just in case"; the fact that they provide firewood, a fire bucket, a table, and stock the portajohn should not be overlooked; as well as providing you a list of available eateries, are all things that you would be hard pressed to find at most other sites (they also provide use of their kayaks, but I won't talk about that as I didn't use... but it's still nice knowing they were there). For being within a vacation destination, the lake was surprisingly void of boaters, which only adds to the appeal of simply sitting on the rocks to watch the sun set behind the islands. The campsite itself was nice, with plenty of friendly chipmunks and red squirrels to keep you company; and if you camp here with little kids, there's enough ground for them to explore without worrying about them getting lost.

The best camping spot!! We loved the mulch on the campsite. No mudd for the dogs to get in to and it brightened up the campsite. Stayed 4 days not 1 bug bite. The paddle boards were also so much fun! Listening to the water while falling asleep at night was so relaxing. Wood and picnic table provided. 10/10 can’t wait to stay again!

Amazing Gem to find!!

What an amazing spot! So secluded but still close to all the adventures of the Keweenaw! The use of paddle boards was excellent, awesome fire pit! Super friendly hosts! Couldn’t recommend enough!

10/10 would return!

10/10 camping. Spot was clean, very private, and beautiful. The lake was gorgeous with clear water, sand beach, and access to kayak and paddle boarding. The sand beach was perfect for dogs to walk in and play. The trees were beautiful. The sunsets off the lake were amazing. The out house was clean and fresh. This is a great camping spot in the UP. We have no complaints and hope to return soon.

We really enjoyed how quiet the site was and had fun using the stand up paddle boards on the lake. We would definitely stay here again.

A peaceful site tucked into the woods on a peninsula. We enjoyed the beautiful lake and paddling out to the islands. Clean bathroom and private location. A great place to rustic camp while exploring the Keweenaw!
