Bewabic State Park

How does one elevate a camping experience beyond the ordinary? Bewabic State Park defies expectations with its unique blend of historical charm, modern amenities, and unspoiled natural beauty. Nestled alongside the serene waters of Fortune Lake in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, this campground offers a rare feature: the opportunity to combine recreational tranquility with a connection to the rich legacy of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC).

The campground boasts 130 sites, including both modern and rustic options, tucked within a shaded, wooded setting that ensures a sense of privacy and calm. Many sites feature electrical hookups, fire rings, and picnic tables, accommodating tent campers and RV enthusiasts alike. A highlight of the park is the range of on-site amenities, such as clean flush toilets, hot showers, a boat launch, and a sandy swim beach. For active visitors, there's direct access to hiking trails, a playground, and Michigan’s only state park tennis courts. Notably, the park allows ORV access for connecting to nearby trails, making it a standout destination for motorized outdoor adventures.

Situated just off U.S. Highway 2 near Crystal Falls, Bewabic State Park places campers within a 30-minute drive of charming local communities and scenic spots like the Iron County Heritage Trail system. Whether you're unwinding on the shores of Fortune Lake, exploring wooded paths, or marveling at the preserved CCC structures, this is a destination primed for anything from weekend escapes to more extended getaways.
