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.

We had a spot that was along the river and it was beautiful! This was our favorite camping spot on our trip. The only issue we had was that there was an issue with water so we had to go to a different campground to get water. We have US Cellular and had service the whole time at the campground, outside of the campground was spotty

This is a very nice campground. It has drinking water to fill your tanks and a dump station. The sites are nicely spaced, are paved and most of them are shaded.

It was a fine campground but they had no water, with no warning on their website, and expected us to drive 5-10 minutes to another campground to get water. I was supposed to have a site right next to the water spout but instead had to drive…

We enjoyed out time here. Sites were spread out enough that we had privacy. Sites were clean and clear of debris.

Good campground. Will lake near by the swim,water was pretty warm. Toilets were clean and they have drinking water station. Mosquitoes aren't that bad at all. Fire pit and table at the lot plus lots are pretty big and private. So far good experience. 22$ for a night...lots of FF lots so we found spot for one night on Fri where all other campground were full we drove by 3 other around this are.

I love this campground. However, this year somehow the solar pump is not working and there is NO WATER available for campers. There is one camp host for FOUR campgrounds, she is by herself, and the work seems to be overwhelming! I do not fault her at all. Not having water, not making sure the pump is replaced somehow seems neglectful. I am so disappointed.
