Rustic campground

We have come here 2 summers now. Fantastic sites with great views on the lake. The sites are large but vehicles are not allowed in them. You have to hike your gear about 100 yards to your site. So only tent campers. We had 17 family members with four large tents and several smaller ones, on two sites. I don’t think you can get that much space at many places. The Township appears to be struggling with trash pick up at the park and cleaning the vault toilets at the park and their campsite. The toilets were as bad as I have ever experienced. The hand pump for well water worked with no problems except it was really squeaky. We love this place and understand it’s not a moneymaker for the Township. I would pay more if that would help.

stayed here two years in a row, lovely campsite and amazing place to swim and watch the sun rise. however, there was a bit of confusion because we pulled up to an unmarked campsite (for reference, site 1 had a paper marking that someone would be coming for the night) and started setting up camp, but were informed by the camp host’s friend that we may have to move because we had not registered online. last year i just paid cash and there was no issue. the camp host came and was very friendly and it all ended up working out, but it was unnecessarily complicated. the camp host’s friend and dog kept coming into our campsite throughout the night. everyone was friendly, but we would have preferred a bit more privacy. otherwise one of my favorite little camp sites. i guess i’ll have to register online next time, no spontaneous camping trips.

When I first decided to try out Rustic Campground I was unsure due to the lack of reviews or pictures of the campground, but thought I would do it anyway. No amenities or any significant information is provided on the internet, so it came as a surprise to me that upon arrival the sites were all well kept and very clean, there are fire pits already established, built in picnic tables at each site, and there are trees around to help with shade and as windbreaks. You can't camp directly on the beach, but you can camp right next to the beach so Lake Superior is visible from wherever your tent is set up. This is especially useful because there are so many private properties around that area of the coast that it's difficult to find any beachside camping in the area. The camp host is about a two minute walk from every site, and I found her to be very welcoming and helpful during my stay. For $15 a night considering the location and experience, this campground is hard to beat.

What a beautiful campsite right on Lake Superior. Lots of sand on the beach and expect better privacy due to the larger rustic sites. Also the camp host is wonderful, I highly recommend. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring.

Great campground right on the lake. These spots are basically all walk in sites, so if you plan to sleep on/in your vehicle you will need to haul your stuff a little bit. There is a single outhouse that was stocked and clean. Plenty of room between sites. There was some road construction going on next to the campground when I stayed there on 6/16/2024. Would definitely recommend staying here if you’re traveling through the area. $15 a night.
