RV Camping near Marquette, Michigan

Chocolay River

76 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Chocolay River RV Park in Marquette, Michigan, offers 76 full-hookup pull-through RV sites and 10 tent sites on the south shore of Lake Superior, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. A single pull-through category means no backing at any site, with restrooms, showers, laundry, and river frontage just outside the city. Seventy-six sites are pull-through throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits. A single-category, all-pull-through layout is genuinely practical — every guest gets the same spec, no backing after a long drive, and 60 feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Ten tent sites round out the lodging. Restrooms, showers, and a laundry handle the practical side. The river runs the property, with hiking on the grounds and offroading nearby. The amenity set is deliberately spare, which keeps rates reasonable and suits a park built as a quiet base rather than a destination. Pets are welcome. The address is 123 Eagle Pass Trail near M-28. Marquette is the largest city in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and has become a serious destination for outdoor recreation without the crowds that come with it elsewhere — Lake Superior's shoreline, Presque Isle Park, the Noquemanon and South Marquette trail networks for mountain biking, Sugarloaf Mountain, and the waterfalls of the central UP are all close. Summer is the short, intense season on Lake Superior, with fall color drawing a strong second wave and snow sports filling winter. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and check operating dates for the shoulders.

JoeIda Campground

8 RV Sites

JoeIda Campground in Shingleton, Michigan, offers eight RV sites in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized for rigs to 85 feet, one mile off Highway H-58 in the heart of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore country. Sites run $25 per night including one trailer plus one tent, or two tents. Eight sites accommodate rigs to 85 feet in back-in and pull-through layouts. These are unserviced sites without hookups, so arrive self-contained and plan water and power accordingly. Restrooms are on site. Pricing is refreshingly simple: $25 per night covers one trailer and one tent, or two tents, with each additional tent $5 and each additional trailer $10. Pets are welcome. The campground keeps things deliberately basic, which is what the setting calls for. This is Upper Peninsula camping in its traditional form — quiet, wooded, and close to the water without resort infrastructure between you and it. Shingleton sits in Alger County between Munising and Grand Marais, one mile south of Kingston Lake. Pictured Rocks' multicolored sandstone and conglomerate cliffs rise 200 feet above Lake Superior along 15 miles of the most photographed shoreline on the Great Lakes, and the Miners Beach, Chapel Falls, and Spray Falls trail systems run from the lakeshore. The area's isolation from commercial development preserves the darkness and forest silence that Upper Peninsula tourist literature promises and most developed areas no longer deliver. Directions from the Mackinac Bridge: follow M-28 to Seney, then at the blinking light turn right (north) on M-77 toward Grand Marais. The northern season is short. Summer is decisively the peak — reserve ahead.

Indian Lake RV Resort & Campground

57 RV Sites

Indian Lake RV Resort and Campground in Manistique, Michigan, offers 57 RV sites on the shores of Indian Lake in the Upper Peninsula, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Full-hookup back-in, water-and-electric back-in, and pull-through categories join a beach, cabins, and dump station in Schoolcraft County. Fifty-seven sites run in back-in, back-in water-and-electric, and pull-thru categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier before booking, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Cabins round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, and restrooms handle the practical side. A beach on the property supports swimming, boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Hiking runs through the surrounding forest, and the birding along the lakeshore and the nearby river is genuinely productive. A golf course and a state park are nearby. Pets are welcome. Indian Lake is the fourth-largest inland lake in Michigan, and this stretch of the Upper Peninsula's Big Lakes country sits between Lake Michigan's north shore and the waterfalls and birch forest of the central UP. Manistique's boardwalk and lighthouse are close, with Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Kitch-iti-kipi Big Spring, and the Seney National Wildlife Refuge all within reach — an unusual concentration of natural attractions for a quiet corner of the state. The UP season is short and concentrated. Summer is peak, with fall color drawing a strong second wave. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and check operating dates for the shoulder months.

Thornton's Rafting Resort and Campground

17 RV Sites, 4 Cabins, 3 Tent Sites, 1 Mobile Home, 2 Onsite RV/Trailers

Thornton's Rafting Resort and Campground in Athelstane, WI, offers 19 RV sites, 5 cabin and mobile home rentals, and 3 tent sites, with 30-amp service and room for rigs up to 80 feet. Sites are back-ins with electric service, site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. These are not full hookups — plan on arriving with water aboard and confirm what's available at your site when you book. Note the electrical: this is a 30-amp property, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management. At 80 feet, though, the sites take a longer rig than almost anything else in the Northwoods. FSX and Transcend RV rentals are available for guests without a rig, and there's a bathhouse with showers on the property. Pets are welcome. The Peshtigo River's whitewater is the reason the resort exists, with rafting, kayaking, boating, and boat rentals, plus an outdoor pool, on-site dining, walking trails, a lake, and swimming, fishing, hiking, and birding. Athelstane sits in Marinette County in Wisconsin's Northwoods. Rates for sites, cabins, and tent spots are on the booking page. Rafting season weekends book first.

HTR Door County Campground & RV Resort

84 RV Sites, 7 Cabins, 7 Glamping Sites, 20 Cottages, 2 Houses

HTR Door County Campground & RV Resort in Egg Harbor, Wisconsin, offers deluxe back-in RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups, sized to 45 feet, alongside cabins on a big-rig-friendly property behind a gated entrance. An outdoor pool, clubhouse, game room, and on-site dining bring resort-level camping to the heart of the Door Peninsula. Deluxe back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Cabins serve guests traveling without a rig. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout and a gated entrance controlling access. Check-in is after 2:00pm and check-out before 11:00am. Pets must be leashed at all times — remote collars do not count — and should never be left unattended. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a clubhouse, game room, arcade, and on-site dining for other hours. Sports courts, volleyball, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the grounds, with planned activities through the season and swimming, boating, and birding from the area. A beach, lake, river, state park, golf course, amusement park, and wineries are all nearby. Pets are welcome. Egg Harbor sits on the Door Peninsula, a 70-mile arm reaching into Lake Michigan with five state parks, working cherry orchards, artist communities, and a shoreline alternating between sandy beaches, limestone bluffs, and sheltered harbors. The village holds one of the peninsula's densest concentrations of restaurants, galleries, and waterfront access. Summer is decisively the season on Door County. Reserve well ahead.

Wildwood Outdoor Adventures & Campground

73 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Wildwood Outdoor Adventures and Campground in Eagle River, Wisconsin, offers 73 RV sites and 10 tent sites directly on the Eagle River Chain of 28 Lakes, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 102 feet.

Seventy-three sites span pond water view back-in 30/50-amp, pond water view back-in 30/50-amp water-and-electric, premium back-in 30/50-amp, and premium back-in 30/50-amp water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 102 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Every category comes in both a full-hookup and a water-and-electric version, which lets you choose the setting and the hookup level independently — a sensible structure. One hundred two feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. Every site gets a fire ring and picnic table. Ten tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and private family shower rooms handle the practical side. Floating boat slips, a full dock, and kayak rentals open the chain for boating, canoeing, and kayaking, with a lake, pond, river, walking trails, biking, a playground, community fire pit, and productive birding filling the rest. The Eagle River Chain is the largest freshwater chain in the world — 28 glacially carved lakes connected end to end across more than 3,000 acres. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.

Plum Pines RV Park & Campground

43 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites

Plum Pines RV Park & Campground in Sayner, Wisconsin, offers 43 RV sites and five tent sites near Plum Lake in Vilas County, with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 50 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout.

Forty-three sites run in 30/50-amp deluxe, 30/50-amp standard, and standard pull-through categories carrying water and electric, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables — note there are no sewer hookups at the sites, though a dump station is available. Accessible sites are available. Five tent sites round out the accommodations. Laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with a gated entrance controlling access. Boat rentals are available on site with boating and picnicking from the property, and off-roading and a golf course are nearby. The amenity set is deliberately quiet — this is a private, family-owned campground where the lake country does the work. Sayner sits in the geographic center of the Eagle River, Minocqua, Boulder Junction, and Manitowish Waters lake district, and the context is remarkable: Vilas County holds over 1,300 lakes within its boundaries, making it the most lake-dense county in the United States. Plum Lake is within blocks of the campground. Summer is decisively the season in the Northwoods. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and note the partial hookups when planning a longer stay.

Summer is decisively the season in northern Michigan, with fall color drawing a strong second wave. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Stargazers U.P. Campground

25 RV Sites

Stargazers U.P. Campground in Ironwood, MI, offers 25 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 35 feet.

All carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. The 35-foot limit makes this a mid-size-rig campground. A bathhouse with showers, a general store, and cabins are on the property, along with a bar and a wedding venue. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. A pond and creek, walking trails, billiards, and picnicking fill the grounds — and the name is not decoration. This corner of the Upper Peninsula has some of the darkest skies in the Midwest. Ironwood sits in Gogebic County on the Black River Scenic Byway, near the Black River's waterfall corridor and its Lake Superior harbor. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page.

SARA Park Campground

10 RV Sites

SARA Park Campground in Tomahawk, Wisconsin, offers 10 full-hookup back-in RV sites on the Wisconsin River, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 60 feet. A single back-in category means every guest gets the same spec, with a public beach, boat ramp, pavilion, playground, and river frontage. Ten back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits.

A beach and boat ramp open the water for boating, fishing, and swimming, with a pavilion, playground, and volleyball filling the rest. A golf course is nearby. Pets are welcome. Directions: take Exit 229 on US Highway 51 and head west on State Highway 86 / Somo Avenue; at the four-way stop, continue straight into the park. The City of Tomahawk manages SARA Park as a community facility, which shows in both the pricing and the public recreation on the grounds — the beach and boat ramp serve local residents as much as campers, and the campground is genuinely well equipped for its size. Lincoln County sits in northern Wisconsin's lake and river country, where the Wisconsin River widens through a chain of flowages. Tomahawk, Lake Nokomis, and the Willow Flowage are all close, with the Northwoods' musky fishing and the Ice Age Trail nearby. Summer is the season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.
