Steuben Lake Campsites

Overview

There are many campsites on the Munising and Rapid River/Manistique Ranger Districts of the Hiawatha National Forest. Many are located on inland lakes and are in a rustic forest environment with few to no amenities and no drinking water. The rustic environment offers a wonderfully serene and peaceful setting for your next camping experience. All of these sites are nestled in hardwood trees and pines. All of them are on small inland lakes, which offer a wide variety of fishing opportunities.

Recreation

Visitors will be able to enjoy swimming, berry picking, and fishing at these campsites. Licenses are required for fishing in Michigan waters.

There are good swimming areas at both campsites. However, there is a hill at Site 2 and makes the beach area difficult to see from the campsite.

Steuben Lake has been stocked with walleye and has supporting populations of northern pike, largemouth bass, bluegill and perch. There is good boat access located in the northwest corner of Steuben Lake, along Forest Road 2662. This access can accomodate most fishing boats and trailers.

Facilities

There is NO drinking water available at this site.
