Happy almost fall campers! So many views and so little time here in the western Upper Peninsula. Fall colors expected to peak first weekend October (as of 9/30/24)! Check out Porkies State Park chairlift rides 10/5, 6 and 12. 10 to 430 ET each day, 10$ plus recreational passport. Copper Peak also offers amazing views of fall colors. Open daily from 930-430 CT, check out copperpeak.net for pricing and details. Enjoy 400 ft of Lake Superior private sandy beach frontage with access to more than 1.5 miles., Beautiful sunsets, and a chance to witness the northern lights, in your private dark sky park; bring your telescope. Search for agates and yooper rocks; bring a black light. Situated on 8 acres of old growth forest, your short walk to the lake is through a park like preserve. Keep your eyes open for wildlife as you cross the boardwalk to the beach. Bring your kayak and or paddle board for a unique experience. A boat launch 1/2 mile away can easily accommodate 16 ft motor boats if fishing is of interest. Enjoy waterfalls? Bond, Agate, Bonanza, and O Kun-de kun and many more are all within an hour. ATV trails are abundant as well and all county roads allow both ATV and snowmobile traffic, with appropriate permits.Enjoy your private campsite, for tent or RV, nestled in an old growth Northern hardwoods forest. A view of Lake Superior exists from the fire ring area; a short walk across my private board walk, provides private access to more than a mile of sand beach. Boat, kayak, and canoe launch available in Firesteel River, 1/4 mile away or simply carry your kayak, SUP, ... and launch from shore. Campsite includes fire pit, picnic table, heavy duty cart and a bench. Beach includes small charcoal grill and two captains chairs. Some seasoned firewood will always be provided to begin your stay. Additional wood is always available by foraging on site for downed material. My camper and cabin are on the adjoining lot so I'll always be available to make your stay as enjoyable as possible!

Very helpful and professional host. Great property and then there's the short path to Lake Superior! It was so beautiful!

Just Perfect

Tent · With pets

Highly recommend!!! Howard was an excellent host - met us upon arrival, walked us through the property, and let us know he was available if needed but also gave us our privacy. The camp site is perfect; the beach area was amazing! Can’t wait to book in a warmer month so we can bring an extra small tent and camp out on his perfect little deck on the beach. Love!!

Howard's lot was awesome. Nice and quiet. A beach on Lake Superior almost all to yourself. We'll be coming back for sure. Thanks for your hospitality! 😁

Camping and White Sand Beaches

24 ft travel trailer

Howard is a great host and provides everything you need for a relaxing stay. Nice private site with a white sandy beach only a minutes walk away. Close to Ontonagon and also the Porky Mountains for hiking. Amazing time

Wonderful experience on Howard's land adjacent to Lake Superior. Communication before and during the trip was excellent. Howard obviously cares a great deal about his guests having everything they need. Campsite is up top and the walkable sand beach is a short walk down a wooded path/boardwalk. Picnic table, fire ring, small smoky joe grill, porta potty, power to plug in and potable water.

We loved this spot! Howard was awesome and super helpful. He checked up on us after some rain to see if we needed anything at all. The view from the beach at sunset was beautiful. Will definitely be coming back!
