We enjoyed our stay at this little city campground. It was busy, but not loud. Every morning and afternoon you can watch the air taxi taking off and landing out on the lake, bringing people to and from the island. The campground is also convenient to Houston-Hancock and so many of the mines in the area that we visited for tours. It was also a short drive to Copper Harbor and the upper upper areas...

We would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay. We stayed 2 nights. Clean showers. Very very clean port-a-potty near the rustic sites, but access to the flushing restroom also.

I'm giving this a five star review for a number of reasons. First it's reasonably priced. We had a pull through campsite that had both electric and water for a reasonable nightly rate. Second it's in a nice location right next to a lake with a little swimming beach. I also thought the restrooms were clean and well kept.

We had a pull through campsite that had both electric and water for a reasonable nightly rate. Second it's in a nice location right next to a lake with a little swimming beach. I also thought the restrooms were clean and well kept. The only drawback was that there was only one shower in the women's and men's bathrooms each. I would also suggest putting a few more hooks by the sink for your toiletries and towel and such, but overall a well kept bathroom that was in good working order. Finally the camp host was very friendly and accommodating. If you are looking for a good, reasonably priced campground that's family friendly in the Keweenaw this is a good one.

The quietest campground I've been to. The price is great and it's right on a peaceful lake. The farmers market is walkable. Would stay there again.

Overall a great little park. Our site (#12) was level but all sites seem pretty narrow. Beach and lake were nice. Bathrooms were always clean. Lots of playground equipment for kids. It connects to the city park which had basketball and tennis courts. Our kids played the disc golf course. We used this park as a base and visited a lot of areas in the keweenaw. Copper harbor is about an hours drive... Overall a great little park. Our site (#12) was level but all sites seem pretty narrow. Beach and lake were nice. Bathrooms were always clean. Lots of playground equipment for kids. It connects to the city park which had basketball and tennis courts. Our kids played the disc golf course. We used this park as a base and visited a lot of areas in the keweenaw. Copper harbor is about an hours drive. Calumet was about 15 minutes. Douglass houghton falls about 10 minutes. 20 minutes to Houghton. A couple of cons: 1. There seemed to be a lot of people with dogs off leash in this park and there is no park ranger (like state parks) to complain to. We had one dog try to get on to our picnic table while we were making dinner. 2. There is a code for the bathroom which I recommend asking for before you arrive. 3. As mentioned, the sites are pretty narrow and you feel like you are sitting right next to your neighbors when you are at the campground. This would be great for a group.
