The view was beautiful out the little patio. The room was.... Well it did it's job. The bed was comfortable. I used my sleeping bag and own pillows, the ones on the beds were dirty.

Great location to set out on bikes. Close to restaurants, trails, all the scenic spots. We had site #27 which was real tight getting into with our 35' 5th wheel. Spots closer to the Showers have more space to maneuver. Other than that it was a fantastic place!

We’re in an RV so the rooms were never seen. Decent place. Convenient location. Quiet. The rv slots are dirt and grass. If they had pads I would have rated them higher. Nice lake nearby. I would call it a park rather than a resort. But I am picky.

We had an amazing stay at this campground! The setting was absolutely beautiful, surrounded by nature but still well-maintained and very clean. The staff was fantastic—especially Erik, who went out of his way to help us find the best things to do in Copper Harbor. He was so friendly and welcoming, and his recommendations really made our trip special. The facilities were top-notch. The bathrooms w... We had an amazing stay at this campground! The setting was absolutely beautiful, surrounded by nature but still well-maintained and very clean. The staff was fantastic—especially Erik, who went out of his way to help us find the best things to do in Copper Harbor. He was so friendly and welcoming, and his recommendations really made our trip special. The facilities were top-notch. The bathrooms were spotless, and the showers were clean and private, which was a huge plus after a long day of hiking. Everything felt well cared for, and the overall vibe was peaceful and relaxing. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip to the area. Highly recommend this campground for anyone looking for a great outdoor experience with excellent service!
