"Very out of the way, quiet, a tad creepy at night"
I stayed here in late October and there were just two other people here. This is a good spot for vans, tents, and small RVs under 25 feet. I would walk in before attempting to bring a bigger rig in. There are pit toilets available and a pond...

"Quiet Spot on a River"
Although this campground has a limited number of spots (9, I think) they are easily accessed from Route 2, one of the two main East-West routes in Michigan's Upper Peninsula (the UP). There are pit toilets and the sound of the water in the...

"Stayed here in January, good experience!"
There were only a few people here when I stayed, so I didn’t have any noise issues. However, during busy times so can see how it might be an issue—the sites are close together. But it’s worth it for the views and the stars. Watch where you step as...

Camping in Huron National Forest at Horseshoe Lake
Fall colors, scary sounds, and foggy lakes await you in Huron Forest! I’m originally from New England and that probably makes me jaded when people in Michigan talk about the “fall colors”. The mi...
Aguirre Spring Campground
I covered 8800 miles in the Odyssey Camper, boondocking often, while traveling to the 2018 Rubber Tramp Rendevous (RTR). One of my favorite sites was the Aguirre Spring Campground outside of White...

How to Get the Best RV Camping Spot at Devils Tower
