What more do you need than a private camping site and your 125' of your own pristine Lake Superior beachfront access? Well, there is the need of a fire ring so we added that, too! Everything else you will to bring to enjoy the million dollar views. Oh, and on the opposite side of the camping site is quiet slough which is great for smooth water paddling and exploring. Down the gravel road about 1/3 miles are logging roads to hike, bike and explore. OHV trails are a couple miles away but check local maps for detailed information. Intentionally being minimalists beyond a fire ring and picnic table, there is a port-a-john (of humble means) to make your stay comfortable. You will need to bring your own firewood if you desire a campfire.There is ample room for two tents, plus parking, or an RV and a tent, or so. The beach faces east for magnificent sunrise views and the sun sets over the slough. Stunning scenery is all around! There is one neighbor to the north and another seasonal neighbor 300 feet to the south. You will not feel pinched in. The driveway is right off the dirt road that has moderate traffic of vacationers during peak summer months. RVs may be parked on the left side or front of the property. Driving RVs in the sand may cause them to get stuck which happened once. Otherwise no trailers have been mired in the sand. The local area has many vacationing amenities including blueberry picking at Panchos, on the other side of the slough. Simply check the local tourist guides for the Keweenaw for information.

This place is great!
Loved this spot. We were here in November and it was perfect, absolutely beautiful. The beach is very nice and there is a park about a mile down the road. The only suggestion I would make is if you don’t have 4x4 to keep your car near the road or the porta potty as the sand gets pretty soft further in. Also, regarding the sand, I was surprised that it does not stick to the bottom of your shoes and dogs feet. Even after it rained. We had almost no sand in our camper over the weekend. I would highly recommend this site!

Wonderful spot right on the beach! Porta Poty and garbage available. 2 picnic tables and a fire pit. The moon and sun rises were epic! Careful where you park, the sand can be pretty loose.

Already planning next years trip
This is a perfect little spot that offers everything that makes the UP great. Amazing clean beach with an amazing view, you get to see the entire night sky. On the other side of the site you get yet again another amazing view of a beautiful winding slough with an amazing view of the forest as a background. The site is on a very remote dirt road so very little traffic. It's only an hour away from Copper Harbor and 1.5 hours from the Porcupine Mountains. Plenty of nice trails close by and I'd highly recommend exploring Lake Linden, it's a small town, the locals are friendly and they make some good comfort food if you're tired of eating protein bars and retort pouches.

The site was not what we expected. Very close neighbors, deep sand that we would have been stuck in (going in and out) if not for our 4-wheel drive, out house way too close, “washboard” road that we had to go 5 mph on, had to ask a local couple where we could turn around so we could back into the site, and not clearly marked,

Wonderful Beachfront site
Amazing spot on the water. Todd was very accommodating and kindly let us beach camp! The site is not "Private" Private but the road is gravel that passes by and it was low use this time of year... Also for those concerned there is a privacy fence from the neighbors.. Would 100% recommend with a pup that loves water... ours had an absolute blast. Planning on making it a yearly trip! Thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful spot!

Incredible Camping Experience
Incredibly beautiful!! Private spot right on the beach with plenty of room, port a potty, picnic tables. It was everything and more. You get sunset behind you and sunrise in front over the water. Pretty amazing and would stay again no question!
