The Woodland Park Campground is situated right on the coast of Lake Superior. We stayed in a Premium Campsite and the views from the premium sites were absolutely spectacular! We had sunsets that were breathtaking as color splashed across the western sky! Fresh air and the beauty of nature are a daily part of this campground! We will be back and I highly recommend anyone with a love of the Great Lakes and all the wonders and beauty it affords to try this campground! Large sites but they do not have sewer hookup. Just a minor inconvenience to me.

This place had nice views from the public benches and beach access. The tent sites were ok. Mostly dirt. There was a large street light near the field that reaches that area. Also there was a big mean rooster that lived near the tent sites. Up at first light crowing away. Also was not scared of our dog. Bath rooms and showers were nice. We prefer a little more in the woods tho.

Very nice campground offering views of Lake Superior. Sites are extremely close to each other. It’s nice but definitely needs maintained better. Boathouse has 5 showers. 3 showers with out of order signs. One of the working showers had no light. Site we booked the fire pit was full to the top with ashes. We had to empty it in order to have a fire. Overall experience was ok. Would stay again. But they definitely need to maintain things better. No reason for showers to not work with the money this place makes being constantly full.

Stayed in the Primitive sites. Close to the bathrooms/showers and playground. It's has a lot of Electrical water sites available as well. Nice little playground. The bathrooms and showers are very clean and nice. This campground has become one of our favorites spits to stay. Close to the beach. A little walk and your at the steps leading to the beach. Dog friendly.

Very cool Campground! My husband and I stopped on our honeymoon! It had live music in the pavilion for summer events, very nice bathrooms and showers, access to lake Superior Beach, walking distance to the center of town, and is right next to the east end of Pictures Rocks National Lakeshore! Looks very family friendly!

The whole facility is well maintained and both bathhouses are clean and functional. Ocean views are fantastic! The only issue was the 12x12 area just outside the camper steps was in need of some gravel. Luckily, it did not rain but if it had, it would have been a small water reservoir.

I couldn't find a national forest campground open in the area so I thought I'd try Woodland Park Campground. Has electric outlets, good hot showers, nice and clean bathrooms, and a good view of Lake Superior. It's a very short walk to downtown where there are a few restaurants. Unfortunately it's raining, but if it lets up I plan to go and grab a bite!

This place could be easily 5 stars. They put together a very nice, clean and new place for campers. Here are some pros and cons. And we camped here in mid-April (still snows on ground and some roads) so some of these will not be applicable for campers planning to use the facilities during high season. Pros: -Facilities are well cared and new. It was always clean. -There is a laundry service and it coats 50 cents and they were in the process of painting and adding more (what it looked like) machines but.. (see cons for comments) -It is right by Lake Superior, and has beautiful beach. -Town is quite cool, most places were closed due to off season. -A lot of the sites have electric and water access (water is off until weather warms up due to freezing). -Showers were really hot and free. Also not timed so it's great for shower (unless you don't like hot shower). Cons: -They have a number which says you can call anytime. We tried many times at different times, they don't answer. -The dump drive-in and out wasn't plowed, so access was blocked by ice pileup. The rest of the roads were open and safe to drive (and sign posted for closed, see the picture) -Laundry was not usable, machines were disconnected. The sink water was also not running (maybe due to freezing again). -There was no way to get drinking water as the site waters are off. It would make a huge difference if they added a hot/cold tap inside the warm shower/toilet building that people can access to water somewhere. Sinks are not great to fill up deep bottles. I think water was the biggest issue. We also couldn't do dishes as getting water was hard and we didn't have in our trailer. Overall this place is really nice and I am sure you get all the benefits they offer during peak season. However, you pay the same amount to stay in the off-season.

You need to book well in advance for water views, but all sites are nice and well maintained. Our bathhouse was exceptionally clean, the and unisex showers are large, accessible, with plenty of hot water. We were here in September, and it was wonderfully quiet with courteous campers. The beach is outstanding and kept clean. We got lucky and found yooperlight rocks our first night here, but you need the right flashlight 🔦b. Read reviews carefully before buying.

We had a wonderful time camping here! It is right on Lake Superior. Decent view from the lakefront campsites, obstructed a bit by trees. Lots of stairs to get down to the beach. Lots of great rocks for rock hunting! One downside was that some sites are quite small. The picture was site 34. Internet reception was quite good with our starlink mini. Easy to bike or walk into town for dinner or shopping. Very dog friendly!
