A beautiful little campground on the lake with an artisan well. There's a beach, picnic area, boat landing with a trail head for the Switchback ridge pathway. There are no campsites directly on the lake but some are very close and have a view of the lake.
A self-service state forest campground, this offers nicely spaced sites on a dirt and gravel road. A boat ramp offers access to Little Brevort Lake. Boats may not have motors, so it is a quiet lake. Vault toilets and a spring, along with picnic tables and fire rings at the campsite, are the only amenities. Bring a check to leave the $15/night fee in the pipe at the entrance. The campground was clean and quiet on a Saturday night in late August.
Very secluded and quiet campground. Good sized lake for swimming and fishing.
This is a beautiful rustic campground. There are some nice trails to walk it it is close to Lake Michigan for some beach walking. The camp hosts are very friendly and helpful. The bathrooms were very clean. There are several walk-in sites as well as ones you reserve. I enjoyed my stay very much!
We loved this campground! Private sites, great little lake, clean vault toilets, spacious rustic sites with bonfire pit and picnic table, fresh water pump. Would highly recommend to those that like to (mostly) rough it!!
quiet rustic campground. very peaceful. lake access, a very small beach, amazing stargazing opportunities. I want to return with some kayaks and fish.
