Kamp Karma

Truly a sweet little spot where the quiet is only interrupted by the hooting of the Barred Owl, the call of the Whippoorwill, and the howls of the wolves. (And the occasional ATVs) For those caravanning with family or friends, my add-on site can be made available for the same price per night, but please contact me regarding rig size if interested. Learn more about this land: Located in the Upper Peninsula's Hiawatha Forest. Dark skies and quiet nights. Private area which is gated, gravel pad, picnic table with umbrella, pitcher pump for water, and fire pit, where you can safely leave your rig for day trips. No electric or water hook-ups. Firewood is available. Plenty of blowdown kindling laying around, help yourselves. You are staying in the woods where bugs can be persistent at times depending on the weather. Please be prepared for this; it’s something I have no control over. Many activities here in the UP! Check out exploringthenorth.com to see all the possibilities! This is a quiet spot to get away from it all. No shooting and absolutely no fireworks allowed within the Hiawatha Forest!

The best camping near Newport State Park guide

Overview

About

Hang by the windy waters of Newport State Park. While there’s no official boat launch, nothing but your own perseverance is stopping you from taking out the canoe or kayak. It can get windy on the water, so I would leave the floppy hats at home! Explore the 30 miles of foot and bike trails, fish for a bit, and end the day with a picnic before you reluctantly head back to the real world. Winter brings trails for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and skate skiing, so don’t think you won’t be back once the weather takes a turn... for the better?

When to go

The best time to visit Newport State Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the trails are accessible and the night skies are clear for stargazing. Winter can be harsh, with limited access and activities due to snow and ice.
