A little on the popular side,we wanted more seclusion. We found this quickly and set up camp fast. Very cold and windy that day, but I'm sure on a warm day,that place os the best spot around! Amazing bathroom, super nice playground, and shower houses. Perfect for family RV campers, however we were in a rooftop tent.

We were able to get a lakefront site. We enjoyed our stand up paddle boards. The best of all we took our new Ranger Polaris to the city of St. Ignace. It was a nice trail. I highly recommend doing this. When you get there stay at the Driftwood motel. They go back in the morning.

Great location, nice staff. Most of the sites get a great view of the lake with plenty of sun in the morning to dry off your tent. Trains in the night but they were pretty short.
