After moving here from the bike-friendliest spot in America (often tied for first with Portland,…read moreyes I know), I was yearning for a great trail to just ride; no cars, consistent surface and lots of scenery. The Iron Ore Heritage Trail (IOHT) does not disappoint. With equal parts of nature and history, it's a great destination for walkers, riders, joggers, kids and families. While not completely paved, the crushed aggregate is easily navigated on my city bike. I went out yesterday after a night of rain and the path was in great shape (surprise!). Folks in the area are very proud of this trail and rightfully so. It's beautiful and fun, a treasure for all ages to enjoy.

The Iron Ore Heritage Trail is a 47 Mile long multi-use trail that runs along Lake Superior and…read moredeep into the forests throughout Marquette County in Upper Michigan. The trails (which are basically the old railways that were used to move ore to the kilns along the lake) are now used for recreation such as hiking and biking. Along Lake Superior it passes through many parks and beaches with amazing views. There are also places to eat, shop or have a drink along the trail (at least in Marquette). I have only been on the trails in Marquette, which is a small portion of the 47 miles, but according to the information available online or at most touristy spots, there are plenty on other sights, foods and history to take in along the rest of the trail. All free!

It's okay. We've…read morebeen here before, a few years back. Had I known we were returning, I would have made another choice. My wife made this reservation. The good: - It's in town, so it's not far from shopping and sights - Some sites are paved The not so goo: - Expensive IMO - $55 per night for a back-in FHU site - Many sites have trees right at the corner of of the pad at the street, which can make it VERY hard to get into your site Sites under the tree canopy, while shady, bear little grass, so it's mostly sandy dirt and not fun in the rain If I needed to stay in/near Marquette and couldn't find a better camping choice, I would come back.

This is a seasonal (May 15-Oct 15) campground owned by the city of Marquette. Fronting the Dead…read moreRiver, it's a nicely wooded 40-acre park with 20 acres devoted to a 110-site campground. One hundred of the sites have electricity. The remaining ten are tent sites. Prices in 2023 were $25 for a tent site, $40 with electricity, and $50 with full hookups. We had a very good experience as tent campers here. We were walk-ins on a Thursday night in late May, and were able to secure a site. (About half of the tent sites were already reserved). The girls in the office, both students at Northern Michigan University, were very helpful and friendly -- even giving us recommendations of places to visit and restaurants to visit. (Thanks to them, we learned about a unique Marquette food -- cudighi). The tent sites are clustered along the water, and each has a picnic table and fire ring. Parking is close by but not directly at each of the individual sites. The campground has well-maintained hot showers, restrooms with flush toilets, and paved roads. It has a beach, small playground, grills, and hiking/biking trails. The location is great -- about one mile from the Lake Superior Beaches. We also drove a short distance to do the short hike up Sugarloaf Mountain to the observation deck, and drove over to drive the Presque Isle Park Loop. Finally, the campground was relatively far from traffic and quiet, so we were able to get a good night's sleep.

On my way to the lighthouse, I stopped to check out this pretty cool park. There is a great view of…read moreLake Superior and Picnic Rocks from here. The park includes a great looking playground, public restrooms and walking trails. It is named after George Shiras III who contributed the land for the park. Shiras was the first to do flash photography of wildlife at night. An entire issue of National Geographic in 1900 featured his work and there is a historical marker with a lot more detail on his life and contributions to conservation and study. There is a large parking lot available. [Review 17919 overall - 325 in Michigan - 1440 of 2022.]

There was mention of food trucks but none were posted when we visited. If the brewery offered some dry snacks, that would be nice. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. In order to accommodate, there are multiple bars as well. We went upstairs to the back patio and we pleasantly surprised by the set up. If this were a cooler day, fire pits could also be used. Note there is no shade available so on a hot day it may be advisable to sit elsewhere. Also there were plenty of board games available on both floors for patrons to borrow. All in all- Oredock is a solid brewery.

Here you'll find a surfaced parking lot, grills, picnic benches, a small shelter and public restrooms. If you want to make your way to the beach and the waters of Lake Superior, walk down one of two designated boardwalks to avoid stepping on the protected beach grass. Lakeshore Boulevard has a largely rocky shore, but this is a great stop to dip your toes in the sand or enjoy a picnic lunch like I did.

There are no trees around the trailer spots, but the surrounding area is beautiful forest. There are fire pits and picnic tables. We needed a part and had Amazon ship it to the office, and we were able to pick it up at 9 PM. There are 4 clean showers and a nice bathroom. The only recommendation I would give is to add a chair or seat in each shower. The entire campground is very well maintained.

This is a really high rating but the park was perfect for us…read more It's new and has gravel roads, no trees, but electric and water and sewer campsites. It's spacious and most sites are pull through. There are some tent sites back in the woods and along the river, very rural and pretty out there. There is no pool, playground or fenced in pet walk. What I really liked the most was the proximity to local bicycle trails located just off the park, making it easy to ride to Marquette and even Presque island. The Northern Michigan University public golf club is just outside the park. If conditions are right you have an unobstructed view of the Aurora borealis. I've seen many prettier parks but this was just right for our needs. Even though we had some rain the gravel sites didn't get muddy, big plus when traveling with dogs. Enjoy the amazing area, hike, bike, eat and enjoy nature... this park is a great place to set up and then go do the stuff you came here to do.
