Campground Visit / Stay Information:
Stay: September 2007

Your Rating (1 Low – 5 High): 5+++

Personal Comments:
In almost a year of being on the road, this has been our favorite campground for the sheer isolation of it all! It was out of season, peak fall color and we had the enitre place to ourselves!! This is why we set up our 2499TT for boondocking!! It was a little slice of heaven hidden in the Upper Peninsula. From now on, anytime we come through Michigan's UP, this will be a must stop for us.
The Falls that are the main attraction, are amazing also. One of the most beautiful in the Upper Peninsula
I've included a picture of the falls and the campgound for you to get an idea
Our camper is hidden in the woods behind the top left section of this piece of drift wood!! Simply breath taking scenery!
