Nice little camping spot! The park and beach area would get five stars. Really nice. The camp sites are back in the woods and quiet. Not too close to each other. A bit of a walk to the bathrooms, but not too bad. It was about four minutes at an average pace from my site. The pit toilet had a strong aroma when I walked past. Did not enter, so can't speak to the conditions.
Regular toilets and showers were decently clean. I wish there were camping spots down by the water. It was about a 1/2 mile walk to the lake and you can't see the water from the sites (at least not on b loop). It was a very picturesque forest though.
Nice lake, very peaceful environment with nice staff. Cool trail to a very nice island with a nice bridge, could see all different kinds of fish from the bridge. I can imagine many people enjoy fishing here because I saw three fishings boats. Note that there may be mud on some of the trails if it recently rained
First time camping with my kids in a tent and the first experience was amazing the place is quite (minus the weekends) and most are so friendly. If you don't like crowds I highly recommend coming during the week and please adults with little kids please don't let them wonder off alone anything can still happen to those babies. My only other issue was some people thought it was still ok to drive the wrong way when there are signs that literally tell you what way to go throughout the campground which could be dangerous for little kids walking around not paying attention. As far as the staff I give them 10 stars and will be back with my family.
Awesome campground, big enough sites that you're not on top of each other. Lake Fortune was lovely. Bathrooms were clean and showers are available. We like it so much we're going back this weekend.
We visited Bewabic State Park one night on our way RVing thru the U.P. We had a spacious and shady site near the bathrooms and fresh water. The trails were winding, but we really enjoyed them, along with our dogs. The fall colors were really stunning in the area.
