Au Train is a typical National Forest campground - well spaced sites, lots of trees, water and outdoor toilets. It was fine, but not outstanding.

The mosquitoes were extremely bad. Paid for 7 nights, only stayed 3 nights. I go camping to enjoy the outdoors, but couldn't. Additionally, while being stuck inside my RV, I had no cell service with AT&T, no internet. A bad time.

We had to drive 20 min away/ 20 min back for water because there wasn’t potable water available at the campground. We were not planning on this

Nice campground kept very clean, boat access to camp sites could be better but we did have a very good time exploring the area. Would consider maybe going back again sometime.

This is a hidden gem close to so much in the beautiful UP/Hiawatha National Forest. Level and large sites, a viewing platform and 2-mile nature trail right in the campground, and clean/updated vault toilets (!) we were in site 5 which was a nice, quiet area for tenting. The spots on the lake looked awesome, too!

Missing the 5th star because it was a little cramped and loud. Campground was easy to find. Sites were well marked. Pre booking on the website was nice. I arrived around 2 am and was able to find my spot easily, and it was marked as reserved for my geoup. Super convenient. Site 10 had a nice picnic table and a heavy duty fire pit with flip up grate for cooking. Some sites looked like they had electric. There was a water tap and a pit toilet.

Great campsite with plenty of space. Not too many sticks or rocks so tent was no problem to pitch. Nice fire ring and neighbors were polite and never too loud. Beautiful area and right down the road from Lake Superior and only 20 minutes from Pictured Rocks! Would definitely camp here again.

This rustic campground (fire ring and canister toilets, no hook ups) is superb. Toilets were very clean and the camp sites have plenty of distance between them - with plenty of tree cover. The songbird trail is worth the hike (about 2 miles I think). There are interactive headsets available, but I didn't use them. There are several "first come, first serve" sites; the campground was not even close to being full the week before Labor Day. There is a drop box for sign up/payment. Definitely a great spot.

The spacious camping site was clean, the fire pit empty of ashes, dIt was quiet all of the time I was there, and the overall condition of the campground was very good. I especially appreciated the helpful service that the host provided when I needed it. I would recommend the campground to anyone wanting to use a forest service site.
