There are several loops in this campground, the first one is more out in the open and looked like it had very little privacy. It was also the most crowded. Maybe there are fhu sites there, I can't imagine what else the attraction would be. The other 2-3 loops are more in the woods with lots of shade and privacy between sites. We stayed in 153 which was close to the boat ramp, very shady, very nice. NOTE: if you need potable water in your RV, get it at the sanitation station on the right just after the check-in kiosk. The spigots throughout the loop do not have hose fittings, they are bucket only spouts. There is a beautiful trail (part of the the North Country Trail) that leads through the forest and goes along a very steep washed away cliff along Lake Superior for a short while. You can't get down to the beach unless you tumble down, and it would be a long tumble! We loved it here!!

I stayed for 3 days at campsite 43, which was a small lakefront site. Overall, the state park is kind of small and has no notable features other than a small and uninviting Muskallonge Lake beachfront. The opposite side along Lake …

Where would the nearest camp shop be to buy a camp patch/badge or magnet?

Christine Stasa | Mar 30, 2021
Joyce Swartzmiller | Mar 31, 2021

About 1 mile there is a laundry and store, maybe there. If not, go toward Newberry. Look for Pine Stump on Deer Park Rd, its a ways. Also, Grand Marais is about 20 miles away thru the woods going west. Good luck. You might ask at the park too. The Friends of Muskallonge State Park have some things for free.

Do the campsites have electric and water?

Jeanne Vandersloot | Mar 30, 2021
Brian Angell | Mar 31, 2021

It's a state park, so there are no water lines, and you have to fill your tank upon arrival if you want water in your RV. Electricity? Absolutely.

How late can you arrive in the day and still get checked in for your reservation?

Benjamin Newman | Mar 30, 2021
Pate Denney II | Mar 31, 2021

The park itself closes at 9pm so I advise getting there before then. If they happen to notice you without the paper that hangs from your rearview mirror you can get in some trouble.

How big are the sites. We are in section 1 #32. I told.the girl our camper is 37 ft. And she said no problem is this true?

Susanne Neal | Mar 31, 2019
Traci L | Apr 1, 2019

If you use the dnr reservations website to find your camp site, you can select your equipment size and it will show all sites that can accommodate it. If you called someone at the state park though, I'm not sure why you're asking this since she already told you it would fit.
