Which I understand but it's not very relaxing being constantly watched while there are kids running around everywhere and she's not saying a word. If you don't pay ahead she writes down your credit card number!!!!! Road going in is AWFUL. Very bumpy of you have a camper. Also the sites are VERY close...you're hanging out with your neighbor whether you like it or not. When we pulled in late the electric wasn't working to our site (which I called ahead to verify if we would have it) and the water was spraying everywhere which left us no water pressure. We've been doing this for years and this is just not a site to come back to. Too old-school here. Stop worry about well behaved dogs laying by their owners off leash and start worrying about fixing/updating your campsite.

Baraga State Park is a small State Park situated in a perfect area across from Lake Superior that…read moreis between somewhere and nowhere. This isn't a State Park made to stay at for any extended period of time but rather a great stopping point for us on our Circle tour of the biggest lake of all the great lakes. We rolled in on a Friday mid-afternoon and couldn't be more pleased with our one night stay. Yes, the highway is nearby and you do hear the traffic but for our visit, it couldn't have been more perfect. We saw the sunset and the moon on full tilt out on Superior. It was truly a welcoming rest on our journey through the North. From Milwaukee, expect about a 5 or so hour drive. From there you have just about reached as far as you can go before you run out of road. Next stop, Copper Harbor. Our favorite amenity about Baraga was the bathrooms. They were absolutely the cleanest facilities we had use of during our 9-day jaunt. The showers were solid and the water was hot. Baraga was a great start for our camping adventures to come! We would stop through this place anytime!

My wife is not happy tonight as this park sits right alongside the main highway US-41 that runs up…read morethrough Baraga and north toward Copper Harbor. This was a mistake coming here as the road noise is terrible, it sounds like the Indy 500 and it is not conducive for an enjoyable camping experience. We won't camp here again and we will be sure to look into the next camping area we pick as an unhappy wife creates an unhappy life.

It's okay. We've…read morebeen here before, a few years back. Had I known we were returning, I would have made another choice. My wife made this reservation. The good: - It's in town, so it's not far from shopping and sights - Some sites are paved The not so goo: - Expensive IMO - $55 per night for a back-in FHU site - Many sites have trees right at the corner of of the pad at the street, which can make it VERY hard to get into your site Sites under the tree canopy, while shady, bear little grass, so it's mostly sandy dirt and not fun in the rain If I needed to stay in/near Marquette and couldn't find a better camping choice, I would come back.

One hundred of the sites have electricity. The remaining ten are tent sites. Prices in 2023 were $25 for a tent site, $40 with electricity, and $50 with full hookups. We had a very good experience as tent campers here. We were walk-ins on a Thursday night in late May, and were able to secure a site. (About half of the tent sites were already reserved). The girls in the office, both students at Northern Michigan University, were very helpful and friendly -- even giving us recommendations of places to visit and restaurants to visit. (Thanks to them, we learned about a unique Marquette food -- cudighi). The tent sites are clustered along the water, and each has a picnic table and fire ring. Parking is close by but not directly at each of the individual sites. The campground has well-maintained hot showers, restrooms with flush toilets, and paved roads. It has a beach, small playground, grills, and hiking/biking trails. The location is great -- about one mile from the Lake Superior Beaches. We also drove a short distance to do the short hike up Sugarloaf Mountain to the observation deck, and drove over to drive the Presque Isle Park Loop. Finally, the campground was relatively far from traffic and quiet, so we were able to get a good night's sleep.

With the new ownership of this campground, they appear to be going above and beyond to be sure their campground is updated. We chose this campground in 2015 and are so pleased that we did. The host is easy to work with but assures that all the campers are treated well and the owner continues to improve the campground. We love having the entire Chain O'Lakes at our disposal. The golf course is just down the road, so when we have guests they an golf also. Several of their docks are new and improved. Also, having the Tiki Bar so close offers food and a fun place to hang out if you just need something different. It was absolutely the right choice for us.

The most disappointing thing was the blaring music till 2 am each night. The rules state quiet time starts at 10 pm, but no one enforces it. And a few don't feel they need to follow them. We won't be back.

We needed a part and had Amazon ship it to the office, and we were able to pick it up at 9 PM. There are 4 clean showers and a nice bathroom. The only recommendation I would give is to add a chair or seat in each shower. The entire campground is very well maintained.

This is a really high rating but the park was perfect for us…read more It's new and has gravel roads, no trees, but electric and water and sewer campsites. It's spacious and most sites are pull through. There are some tent sites back in the woods and along the river, very rural and pretty out there. There is no pool, playground or fenced in pet walk. What I really liked the most was the proximity to local bicycle trails located just off the park, making it easy to ride to Marquette and even Presque island. The Northern Michigan University public golf club is just outside the park. If conditions are right you have an unobstructed view of the Aurora borealis. I've seen many prettier parks but this was just right for our needs. Even though we had some rain the gravel sites didn't get muddy, big plus when traveling with dogs. Enjoy the amazing area, hike, bike, eat and enjoy nature... this park is a great place to set up and then go do the stuff you came here to do.
