Original owners adult kids trying to operate this when we were there in 2010. Not doing a good job of it. Most sites brushy and tight, owners children racing around trails on ATVs raising dust and holy Caine.

Beautiful deep woods location with many luxury retirement type homes nearby. Open view of Lake Superior and all of its' wildness. Nearby is Eagle Harbor and River, historic copper mining seaport.

My husband and I stayed here at the end of the season 2017. The camp hosts were very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We loved being right on the Lake, and the unlimited hot water in the bath house was great too. We look forward to coming back in the spring. only drawback is no cell coverage with ATT or Verizion.

We stayed at Sunset Bay for four nights at the end of August of 2018.

The camp is rustic and peaceful. We were fortunate enough to get a site facing the lake and close enough to hear the waves at night. It was absolutely wonderful.

Some of the sites are pretty tight, others are spacious.

There is a small but clean bathhouse with good showers. The laundry facilities are adequate to the size of the campground. They are not coin operated, you pay by dropping the requested price into a payment box. They rely on people being honest, so if you go, please be honest. Ice and firewood are available at the camp office.

Our site included water, electric, a sturdy picnic table and a very nice fire ring surrounded by large stones.

The wifi was only okay. It was stronger the closer you got to the office.

The roads getting here reflect the remoteness of the campground. Frankly, so do the views... We were greeted by the host and shown to our spot. The sites are pretty small but there a couple of larger sites. Some sites are suitable for tenting or popup campers only. They have a few cabins available, also. We had 1-2 bars of Verizon phone and our Verizon JetPack. We had 0 bars on our AT&T phone. They boasted wifi but we could never log on even thought the campground was about half full. They had a small laundrymat (3W/2D) and 3-4 restrooms with showers spread through the facility. They advertised a reverse osmosis water filtration system and the water tasted great. They had a central dump and fill station and most sites had 30A electric and water. There is wonderful rocky beach along the campground and we spent a lot of time admiring the view and the waves.

Nice little campground right on Lake Superior. Quiet. The beach has nice flat rocks that can be stacked, for fun. The beach is long and we walked a long way. We wished we would have brought a kayak or something to float on because the water was comfortable to be in while we were there in July. Sunsets were as promised - mesmerizing.
It is about a 25 min drive to town (Calumet, Hancock or Houghton), so it is a little remote. But it is a good location for sight-seeing on the Keewenaw Peninsula. Getting to Copper Harbor from here is a lovely drive.
We had booked the site a second time but had to cancel. The process to cancel was easy. Just wrote them and email and they sent back a confirmation of cancellation promptly.

My wife and I stayed 3 days and it was a very nice place to stay... as we drove in we were met by the host she was very nice and she collected are payment. I would when I go back I would suggest sight 21 or 12 to 18... if you have a large right some sight are to small.... only issue I had staying here was that when I went to leave and empty my tanks in my sight the sight could not keep up with the flow from my camper... it is down a long sand and gravel road so if Its wet it is a very soft road on the drive in... the WIFI was very fast

Beautiful location on Lake Superior! A rustic campground with a lot of Character. The beach is copper colored rocks with purr and clear lake water. Very cool when the fog rolls in at sunset.

We arrived and were 3rd in line to check in. Must have stressed the host out because she looked at me and snapped “you’ll just have to wait! I have these people to take care of first!” I figured since I was 3rd in line I would have to wait! She didn’t need to snap at me! I was just out of my car to look around at what they offered.
This lady is mother or mother-in-law of owner and spends all day riding around in her little cart playing boss.
She stopped at our site and tried to be nice to us, but she’d started off on the wrong foot with me and I saw bits of it used on other members of our group of 5 campers all 4 nites we were there.
I heard their black dump tank is full and doesn’t have much room. Supposedly they are working to fix this.
Only tents get the excellent sites on the water.
The sites are very close together and are dirt or sand, some gravel.
There’s only 3 bathrooms in the whole campground and if you are taking a shower, it locks anyone else out to use the toilet.
This place needs work in all aspects!
