Ok, so if you take Peterson Rd, down towards the Peterson Recreational Beach Area you have a well maintained dirt road. The campsite is really nice and tucked away with a really easy hike. The hike is about 1.5 miles to the campsite and then you are about .5 mile from the your own private beach off of Lake Michigan. Would and will recommend to my friends.
The campground is nice and well maintained. We enjoyed the short hike there and our one night stay. We came here late on 4th of July weekend but there were still campsites available.
A quiet peaceful campground, with only 6 sites. Amazingly it was very quiet at night, no crickets to be heard. There were many mosquitoes around camp.
@jill, here's a picture of that f150 that got stuck.... It was mine. AAA won't touch the area, and that little jeep will put your big vehicles to shame. Don't try driving through here, might be worth the hike.
