Beautiful, peaceful location in the woods within walking distance of gorgeous sunsets over Lake Superior. Short hike to lighthouse is well worth it.

Hurricane River Campground is praised for its beautiful location near Lake Superior, with clean facilities and well-maintained sites that offer privacy. Campers enjoy the easy access to hiking trails, pristine beaches, and the soothing sound of waves. However, many reviews mention issues with mosquitoes and the need for better campground management, including the presence of hosts and clearer information. Overall, it’s seen as a lovely spot, especially for hikers and nature lovers.

We loved our stay in the lower section right across from the lake! Easy access to swimming and sunsets and beautiful hike to lighthouse and log slide. Facility very clean. Just beautiful!

Campground is small and very quiet. Campsite was very nice. Vault toilets were cleaned every day though there was a strong ammonia odor. I recommend the boat tour.

Very well maintained campground.
Was in upper loop site 8. This site was partially visible to the HWY but this did not impact peacefulness. Latrines were well maintained with plenty of trash disposals.
Would return again. If you want the lake to be easily walkable, recommend lower loop if possible but not necessary.

Campsite was nice, designated tent location. Pit toilet clean. Water available. The Highway was close to our site, could hear traffic during the day, but it diminished at dark. Overall very quiet and a nice place. We liked to the lighthouse, good walk and destination. We watched the sunset on Superior, another nice feature. It was a stopping point for our tour of the north coast so we only stayed one night.

Camped in the lower loop. Both sites were great. Each site is separated from the next by a patch of woods which gives a definite sense of solitude and privacy.

Very clean. The park service pulls trash and cleans restrooms daily. I always clean my campsite prior to set-up and only found 1 small piece of litter. Recommend taking the dirt path along the Hurricane River starting at the campgrounds. Bring your food with you or plan on driving to Munising ( 40 min drive )
Campsite #1 Hurricane River Campground
Beware that it’s within smell distance of the Poo Shack. Not real bad but it is noticeable.
Smallest site but the only site that provides solar for your panels. I was able to park my trailer total length 15’ and truck 17’ at campsite. Parks drinking water was acceptable no foul taste. 7 days is not enough to take in all the beauty the area has to offer.

Beautiful campground on the shores of Lake Superior. We loved staying here. Site are spacious. Kids loved swimming in the lake every day and is was the perfect location to explore Pictured Rocks from. There are a lot of mosquitos so come with bug spray! We also wished that there was a better way to wash dishes at the campground. There was no dish washing station or even a drain under the spigot. We had to drive to town every day to take showers and do dishes at the RV park.
