We arrived Tuesday 1230p and was refused check-in until 1p, in fact we were told we could not wait 30 minutes on the property, we had to vacate. To exit the campground, we had to drive by our reserved campsite, that was unoccupied.
Majority of campsites are buddy sites where camper doors open up to your neighbor's camper door, so your outdoor activities, to include your picnic table and campfire that is in your site is in full display of your neighbor and the same for them.
Sites very tight/close.
Low water pressure and the campground wasnt filled to capacity.
Limited check-in parking area.
Pull-thru site 4 unlevel no matter how we parked.
Dogs on leash rule ignored by most campers.
Road noise from M-123.
No campground WIFI.
T-Mobile 1 bar.

Tips...
Stock up on groceries before arriving as they are very pricey here. There are 3 different dollar stores in Newberry.
Tahquamenon Falls just down the road.
Crisp Point Lighthouse. The 18 mile sandy road is horrible, but worth t!
Timber Charlie Restaurant in Newberry for walleye.
The INN Restaurant in Paradise

Brice and Vicki purchased the park February 2023. They are the nicest couple. They are working hard to make what was already a nice park even better. Nice sized level grass sites, clean restrooms, playground, horseshoe pits, laundry, small camp store. They accommodate Full hookups, partial hookups, tents. Nature trails and ORV trails leading out of park. Centrally located for a lot of UP attractions.

This campground has a pleasing design, nice size lots, and clean bathhouse and laundry. Things are well maintained, impressively. There are some nice trails in the back that lead into the woods. The owners are pleasant and energetic, and politely maintain a welcoming, calm atmosphere. There are a range of hook ups for water and power, with most of those having sewer hook up also. There are also some rustic sites. In August, site 2 has pin-cherries dropping, but shade is wonderful.

Great, clean campground. Nice facilities that are kept up, sites are grass and large. Plenty of trees. Reasonable rates. Wifi available and if you're in the front half of the park its pretty fast too. Cheap firewood. And no outside firewood is allowed in. They have ice and a few basic camping items available. If you need more Newberry is a 5 minute drive and theres an Ace Hardware, Napa, etc. No pool, but lots of kids activities. Its a short drive from Tahquamenon Falls, Paradise and Whitefish Point, Munising, Grand Marais, and the bear ranch. Kind of centrally located in the UP so Sault Ste Marie, Big Spring, Marquette, all within 2 hours. Yes, there's lots of bugs. That's the UP. Its like that everywhere. Owners do spray the park for mosquito control. A couple citronella candles kept them at bay around our fire. We hang a bug zapper anyway. We have been coming back here for years. Owners are about the coolest people you could ask for. Great place! Very clean. Reasonable site rates. I wish more were like this.

Sits remote up in the UP in the middle of nowhere, but the owners know how to set up a cable TV system correct. They give you a free decoder box, with instructions, which took my 15 minutes to figure out and set up for like 40 channels of cable TV. Have seen nothing like this anywhere else, and is so needed at every campground for long stays.

We got a discount via GOOD SAMS to the $36 night FHU as that was the only spot available.

You can visit the WHITEFISH POINT lighthouse area from here, which is a nice drive. Also went to Tahquamenon Falls to get in a great view of a famous natural waterfalls. Also if brave you can drive to CRISP POINT (15 miles out a dirt road to a lighthouse - can be driven with a two wheel drive truck, or four wheel anything, but the road is tough and hard to navigate). Did and got the sticker, LOL.
