Bells Acres Recreational Area

7 sites · RVs, Tents200 acres · Ishpeming, MI
Bells Acres is a large property with abundant history! Originally homesteaded by a Finnish family in the 1800s, we are only the 4th family to own this property. Doc Bell operated his veterinarian practice from this farm starting in 1915, giving his name to the creek running through the property and the lake it feeds. A family from Finland purchased the property from the Bell family in the 1960s and lived on the homestead until 2020 when we purchased it. We hope to continue the tradition of generational homesteading, while sharing this piece of God’s country with you! Our property features a vast variety of terrain for our campers to explore. Our extensive road and trail network will take you to beautiful bluffs, ravines, wetlands, riverbanks, beaver ponds and much more! Wildlife enthusiasts can enjoy the chance to see deer, bear, moose, beavers, coyotes, waterfowl, upland birds, and more! You name it, it is here!

The best camping near Bewabic State Park guide

Overview

About

An intriguing mix of history and nature, Bewabic State Park features a 2-mile trail, wooded areas, easy access to several landmarks of interest and a beach area and boat launch on stunning Fortune Lake. Feeling lucky? Hell yeah, you are! Many of the manmade structures used in the park today were built by the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) and offer a cool glimpse into an earlier time. To supplement the historical angle, you can visit the Iron County Museum in nearby Caspian or an Indian burial ground in Pentoga Park. To supplement the fun, you can hit the beach and playgrounds, or take advantage of the only tennis courts available at any state park in Michigan. Game on!

When to go

The ideal time to visit Bewabic State Park is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and the park is in full bloom. Fall also offers a spectacular display of colors, making it a great time for photographers and nature lovers. Winter can be harsh, with heavy snowfall limiting access to certain areas.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you have a Recreation Passport for park entry.
  • Check trail conditions and weather forecasts before your visit.
  • Remember to pack insect repellent and sun protection.
  • Be aware of park rules to protect the natural habitat and wildlife.
  • Facilities may vary by season, so verify availability in advance.
