This boondocking spot was quite lovely for the week. Parked right on the lake, beautiful woods, an easy trail around the lake, remote and unpopular, yet only 15 minutes to downtown city of Houghton...what more could you ask for? We lovvvvved it here! Although it's called a "campground" on the map, it's really not ... No toilets, hookups, staff etc, just a remote section of the woods carved out (naturally I believe?) that people boondock at. It's great! In our 2 years of full time travel, it was definitely a gem of a boondocking spot.
Nice little lakeside free camping spot. No rules posted, so I'm not sure if it's technically allowed but there are several folks posted up here, some look to be longer term. There's room for most size rigs but would be tight and rough for a large class A. There are maybe 4 spots that are remotely flat enough for a rig but a few more spots that are great for tents. There's a small beach/canoe launch. Lots of locals come to fish but everyone seems nice!
Nice free site, was very busy our first night but the next day it cleared out to 3 people and on the 3rd day only one other camper. It is a pretty popular spot for locals to come and roam so be ready for a little in & out traffic. Also had great access to ORV trails, we made a day of riding up to Copper Harbor.
Nice spot but can be filled up with campers very quickly. No privacy by the main camp area. I found a road off to the left before going into the camp area that leads to the other side of the lake if you want more privacy. 4x4 and some clearance is required for this road because of the mud, deep puddles, and some steeper incline. I would definitely come back here. Btw, no bathrooms
