My husband, pup, and myself loved our stay at Craig's RV on the lake! This is our second time staying with him but first time at this spot. We had so much fun! We used the kayaks they provided and our SUPs we brought along. Being right next to the lake changed our experience . Our pup loved it too. She would just run down to the water and lay in it whenever she wanted 🙂 The RV is packed with everything you need. The private outhouse is clean and omg the deck! Best view. We wished we would have booked a longer stay. We will be back!
We had an awesome time on Craig and his wife’s camping spot! We would 10/10 recommend this site for anyone looking to stay in the U.p. The site itself was very maintained and stocked with more than we needed and included campfire wood, countertop stove, sink, and water to wash dishes. The camper was cozy and very clean inside. Craig was very responsive to questions (we had a lot) and he and his wife were fabulous hosts to us. We will definitely be coming back! Thank you both for having us!
This was absolutely the most amazing camping trip we’ve been on! The cabin was perfect, sauna was amazing, and was the perfect distance from Kitch-iti-kipi (25 min) and Pictured Rocks (45 min). Craig was super helpful and even when we came in at 9:30 after a long drive, took the time to show us around the site. Kayaks were so nice to have, and our dogs enjoyed the space to run around. We didn’t hear or see anyone the entire trip, other than 1 small fishing boat that motored by on our last day. It was such a relaxing space, I’d book again for sure!
