Little Beaver Campground offers a serene and clean environment, with well-maintained pit toilets, potable water, and proximity to beautiful hiking trails and scenic views of Little Beaver Lake. Visitors appreciate the small size and peaceful atmosphere, making it a great spot for those looking to escape the crowds. However, some reviewers reported issues with campsite reservation discrepancies and mosquito infestations, suggesting caution during bug season.

Amazing campground conveniently located just 8 or so miles from the Chapel/mosquito loop trailhead. The campground itself is situated on a small lake, sites are fairly close together but all our neighbors were friendly and quiet! The hike from the CG to twelve mile beach is a must do. Had some fun little cave formations in the rocks and then we had the beach all to ourselves. Definitely a primitive campsite with pit toilets and a water source, but that’s all you really need! Would definitely return.

One thing I definitely recommend is maping out your directions for where your going around there before you arrive. There is absolutely 0 bars of anything and that makes it difficult to get places. But besides that I loved this campground super cute and cozy

The campsite was clean and quiet. However, the drawbacks of this campground made it an unpleasant stay. A few well used trails run through or near the campground. There is also a boat ramp to the lake adjacent to the campground. All of this draws in many, many people starting very early in the morning and lasting all day long. These people also used the vault toilets which smelled so bad I nearly vomited the first time I went in one. Each time someone opened the door the whole campground was filled with the foul odor coming from the toilets. And it wasn't even very warm when I was there. The people launching their boats at 5:30 in the morning, shouting directions to each other, and running their diesel engines for an extended period of time was an unwelcome wake up call.
I would highly recommend against staying at this campground. If I go back to Pictured Rocks I will use one of the privately run campgrounds in the area. It's a shame there are so many negative aspects to this campground. It was beautiful and could have been a pleasant and relaxing visit.

The best part about this campground is that it’s small (only 8 sites) and that the trailhead leaves right from the grounds.
