This rustic campground sits along the northern shores of Black Lake, which is Michigan’s seventh largest inland lake. It is surrounded by rolling hills and lush hardwood forests. Black Lake is a shallow lake and provides great opportunities for paddlesports and fishing. Northern pike and muskellunge can be found in Black Lake. This popular campground fills up quickly in the summer, especially on weekends.
