We stayed at campsite #4 (a 2.2 mile flat hike in) and it was absolutely stunning. There is private access to the beach, a picnic table, fire ring with rocks that protect it from the wind, and a flat spot for a tent. The mosquitoes were rough in the evenings, but the wind from the lake helped to keep them away. I would recommend this as a great first backpacking trip!

On two trips there, our site was spacious and level, but well-screened in by trees. The extra-long picnic table was convenient for food prepping and cooking. Getting to the beach was a matter of walking across the road, and while you can't too far down the beach, it is a scenic little strand. There is a short walking trail if you stretch your legs for a bit longer. Restrooms and showers were clean, and hot water was abundant, but, at least on our last visit, the automatic sinks wouln't turn on when I needed them. Then at times they would turn on and off when no one was near them. The autoflush toilet also seemed to be operating on its own schedule--hopefully they'll fix that over the winter. This is a great base for beachcombing, hiking at Negwegon State Park just up the coast, or whatever else you like to do in the northern Michigan woods.

And while it might not seem like much while you are walking DOWN them, in this antigravity paradox just remember, what goes down must also come back up--unless you plan on sleeping down there. Once you've descended the 300 stairs (actually, even on the way down), the views are absolutely spectacular. The setting is tranquil and relaxing, and there are several placards along the way which tell the story of the Springs and describe so many interesting aspects of this Huron National Forest site. Feel free to take your time meandering about in the shade of the canopied forest--for your looming ascent will have you longing for that serene setting. Once you've read all the informational signs and committed the gorgeous views to memory (or at least snapped some memorable phots thereof), its time to climb. Yep, those same 300 stairs that seemed so innocent on your decent now become your nemesis. In the mid summer heat, you also gain a deep appreciation for the perspiration-evoking power of Michigan's humidity. And, for those ultra-tough cross fit types out there that may scoff at those panting, wheezing, sweating souls such as, perhaps, me, maybe you should attack the 300 stairs Rocky Balboa style and enjoy yourself a victory dance at the top (after which, if you are feeling a little humanitarian urge, you could send down a tow rope or some other means of pulling my kind up the 186 stairs I still need to climb).
