About Coves Group Backpacking Site

Coves Group Campground is three miles east of Chapel Beach. You are still up on the cliff line, but have started your descent towards Twelvemile Beach. Hike east on the North Country Trail about a quarter mile to find a trail to a small cove and beach on Lake Superior; this is where you have access to water. One shared fire ring and pit toilet. No access for kayakers due to 1/4 mile portage.

Nestled within one of Michigan's most stunning natural landscapes, Coves Group Backpacking Site offers a unique and intimate camping experience for adventurers seeking solitude in the wilderness. This remote backcountry destination is perfect for those who want to escape the crowds and immerse themselves in pristine natural beauty while still maintaining the flexibility and comfort that RV travel provides as a base camp alternative.

The site's location within a national park setting means you're surrounded by dramatic landscapes, dense forests, and scenic vistas that showcase the best of Michigan's natural heritage. The area is characterized by rugged terrain, peaceful waterways, and an abundance of wildlife viewing opportunities. Whether you're an early riser hoping to catch the sunrise over the landscape or someone who enjoys evening wildlife observation, this destination delivers memorable moments that connect you to nature in meaningful ways.

The single group site configuration makes this an ideal destination for close-knit groups, families wanting a bonding experience, or clubs and organizations seeking a retreat location away from typical park crowds. The intimate setting encourages genuine connection with both the natural environment and your travel companions. This is camping in its purest form, where the focus is on the landscape, fresh air, and the simple pleasures of outdoor living.

For RV enthusiasts, this location serves as an excellent base for exploring the broader national park area and the surrounding Michigan region. The backpacking site connects you to extensive trail networks and outdoor recreation opportunities that showcase why this area is treasured by nature lovers. Hiking, wildlife observation, photography, and quiet reflection are the primary activities that draw visitors to this peaceful destination.
