We had a wonderful time here at the group site. Plenty of room for multiple tents. Nice and even leaf covered ground, soft, sheltered from the wind. You can hear the waves of the lake at night and during the day. Very "rustic", take animal precautions and don't be squeamish about bathrooms. No water on site, but a well nearby. Easy access to a dumpster and abundant downed wood available for... We had a wonderful time here at the group site. Plenty of room for multiple tents.

Early spring hike in the woods. Beautiful day, super cold. Lake Michigan is up several feet and lots of wildlife spotted...snakes, salamander, herons, bald eagle...if you're quiet.
