We loved this spot! Howard was awesome and super helpful. He checked up on us after some rain to see if we needed anything at all. The view from the beach at sunset was beautiful. Will definitely be coming back!

Excellent Hipcamp Location!

Howard has made this campsite a 5-Star location. The campsite was great with every imaginable amenity and a great private deck on the beach which was a short walk away on a path and boardwalk. Thanks Howard! 🌞

Beautiful beach and campsite! Very peaceful and quiet, even had a deer come right up to the site. Howard literally thought of everything to make your stay very comfortable. Water, electric, porta-potty with a little light, small solar lights down to the beach, wagon to take your stuff to the beach. He even brought us some dry firewood after we had some rain one night! Thank you for being so hospitable, we had a very enjoyable stay!

Lake Superior Camping

This is a beautiful site, and felt like two sites in one. We set up our tent on the forest side. The setup there is great, with the picnic table, bench, fire pit with a swivel grate, and even a fan in case the bugs are bothering while you eat. (We were blessed with it not being buggy during our stay). The walk to the beach is a great little walk, and that moment of arriving at the end of the path and seeing the lake is like walking into another world. It is breathtaking. The beach is soft sand, just perfect. The setup at the beach is great, too. Having the deck with chairs and a little table, tiki torches, and then 2 beach chairs that are easy to move around was great. Enjoying a fire on the beach while watching the sunset was a highlight! Howard is a wonderful host! He gave us a tour of the site, shared info on activities and things to see, including maps of the area. The level of communication was perfect. He was welcoming and friendly, and it was evident that he wanted us to have a great time. He was available if we needed anything, yet also was super respectful of giving us privacy. We are definitely planning to come back!

Great Spot!

I recently stayed at this fantastic Hipcamp property on Lake Superior, and it was a truly memorable experience. The host was incredibly responsive and welcoming, making our stay smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. The highlight of the property was definitely the breathtaking views and the beautiful sandy beach. It was the perfect spot to relax, unwind, and take in the stunning natural surroundings. I would definitely return to this gem in the future. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a serene and picturesque getaway.
