Man’s best friend may be a dog to some, but to others its a remote, flat, fish-filled lake.

No, it may not wag it’s tail when it sees you, or lick your face and demand snuggles, but you can put your boat in it, find food in it, and it’s songs will treat to comfort tingles all night. Find your best friend at Courtney Lake Campground. Catch a tasty trout for dinner or take a stroll on the Circle of Life Trail. In the summertime find relief at the lakes beach. As one of the only places in the area to offer equestrian trails, don't forget your other best friend!

Lake Superior Beach Perfection

1 site · RV, Tent1 acre · Lake Linden, MI
What more do you need than a private camping site and your 125' of your own pristine Lake Superior beachfront access? Well, there is the need of a fire ring so we added that, too! Everything else you will to bring to enjoy the million dollar views. Oh, and on the opposite side of the camping site is quiet slough which is great for smooth water paddling and exploring. Down the gravel road about 1/3 miles are logging roads to hike, bike and explore. OHV trails are a couple miles away but check local maps for detailed information. Intentionally being minimalists beyond a fire ring and picnic table, there is a port-a-john (of humble means) to make your stay comfortable. You will need to bring your own firewood if you desire a campfire.
