Nice little campground. Sites were free of debris and right on the Indian river. The Indian river has some big trout in places that are hard to get to. Easy access right from the main road.

BEAUTIFUL area!! Love the view of the water and close to Kitch-iti-kipi. Bathhouse is a bit dated but facilities are all clean. Individual shower rooms. Cell service was good. I really like that they have recycling bins!!

The peaceful river's gentle flow is complemented by an abundance of wildlife playing nature's all natural musical composition - a video or link to video will be posted on the UP Veterans of Michigan Facebook page.
