What Guests Are Saying
Widewaters Campground is a well-maintained and peaceful location, conveniently situated near attractions like Munising and Pictured Rocks. Campers appreciated the spacious sites, clean bathrooms, and friendly hosts, Mike and Mary, who enhanced the overall experience. While some noted noise from generators and limited water availability, the majority found it to be a beautiful spot for camping with plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy.

Nice campground tucked away in the UP - clean vault toilets and nice spacious campsites. Beautiful location with a nice little lake behind the sites. Plenty of mosquitoes so bring bug spray but a great spot to spend a night.

Nice quiet campground. Sites were a little close to each other, but other than that every thing was great. Vault toilets very clean.

Campsites are right on top of one another, the entire campground is also pretty loud since the design of it points everyone at eachother

Well kept campground, hosts were friendly and made suggestions for sights to see. Site 17 didn’t have view of water but a short walk and you have your own spot on river to wade and relax. It was spacious, towards the end away from everyone, level and across from a new vault toilet. Easy to get to the campground and central to many day trips. Midway General Store is less than 10 minutes away and has everything you need, including pizza and ice cream. Owners are wonderful and definitely stop in!

The campground is laid out well with good privacy between sites. The campground hosts kept the bathrooms cleaned and supplied. There is so much to do here - kayaking, fishing, hiking, biking and just enjoying nature. We always enjoy our stay at Widewaters!

The campground and our site were clean and well kept. The facilities worked just as they should. Our site was level and had a good amount of privacy. While we were there the campground was very quiet and peaceful and the other campers were friendly and respectful.

Quiet, pretty site near the river. One star off because the swimming isn't great. Unfortunately the water was out and we had to drive to another campground to refill all week.
