Monocle Lake

Very nice campground on the lake. If you use GPS be careful of the road named Monocle Lake - it is not the campground access.

Really pretty lake accesses from the loop.

Good driving distance to Sault Ste. Marie to see the locks.

Really nice and quiet campsite. The hosts keep it clean. Great spot for families!

Site #1 was huge - plenty room for our 35’ fifth wheel & longbed crewcab dually. Nice big roads inside campground to maneuver.
Couldn’t use our Starlink due to trees, but loved the trees & sound of birds. ATT worked with antenna.
Perfect location (Iroquois Lighthouse & Whitefish Point Lighthouse, Sault St Marie & locks, and Tahquamenon Falls.
Nice trails (please put signage at top of climb to Mission Hill - turn left)
However, the campground hosts told me they don’t like to deal with campers not following rules - someone had generator on past quiet hours & people booked sites & didn’t show up for days. Plus, their son-in-law blew his “train horn” on his truck even AFTER I complained.
Only one water spigot works to fill RV water tanks.
$20 a night for no water, no power, no sewer, no dump station, no bathhouse and no real water fill station.

Stayed here two nights because Pictured Rocks was booked. A nice stop! (Shout out to the camp host for the clean bathrooms, much appreciated). The lake is nice for paddling or fishing. A section of the North Country hike is nearby, although a little hard to find (a marker for the trailhead at the picnic area would be useful). Buggy, but it is August in Michigan, so. Whitefish Bay on Lake Superior is a short drive away. Services are a bit of a drive, but there's Dancing Crane Coffee shop in Brimley which is a sweet place.

Nice campground with pretty spacious sites. We originally reserved site 11, but when we got there we realized it's like a roadside spot. Very small for anyone with kids. We decided to move to site 21 which we liked. Quiet campground and friendly host, with a cute little lake. Dancing Crane was a cute little coffee place, and Pickles is a must stop for lunch or dinner.

Everything is clean and well laid out. The beach front is especially nice and the water is very clean and refreshing.

The vault toilets are cleaned 2 or 3 times a day and were honestly not too bad. We wanted to avoid vault toilets on our trip but campgrounds have been hard to come by this season so we ended up at Monocle Lake. I would definitely come back. The lake was beautiful and the hikes had great views! We did the hike to Mission Hill and caught a glimpse of Spectacle Lake and Lake Superior in the distance! The campground hosts were super nice, and there’s even some toys for kids to borrow and take to the beach. We stayed in spot 7 which was right next door to the toilets, but we never noticed a smell and the foot traffic wasn’t terrible. There are bigger spots with more privacy available. But we made the best of it and it was plenty of space for just our tent and a car. We also hand ample sunlight to warm up the camp shower and have warm water :)

beautiful and quiet, will diffidently come back.

Quiet lake and campsites.

Spacious campsite, beautiful lake views, and quiet environment. It was the perfect place to relax and just be for a little while! Camp hosts were pleasant and everyone was polite.
