Ausable River Camping - Site 066D

World-class camping experience, accessed by canoe. Simply incredible. This can be a part of a longer trek from the source of the Au Sable (Grayling) to it's merge into Lake Huron at Oscoda, or one can put in at either end of Cooke Pond to paddle to the site. Due to the dam, the flow is not significant on this portion of the river. Note that reservations are required. Please, please respect the cleanliness of these primitive sites! Pro-tip: in the absence of nearby down firewood, bring gloves to harvest and process dead pine branches from the trees. Unfortunately, there is evidence of living bark being removed from healthy trees for fire fuel.

Amazing site very primitive no water or bathrooms. Pack it in and pack it out. Good views and it's remote off a dirt road.

Great spot do not take rv. A truck or car could barely fit and was very muddy great beachy area

Great camping, huge site, inexpensive. Very private.

Great view, nice privacy
