Union River 'Big Bear' Campground

Fantastic little campground, right at the entrance to the Porcupine mtn wilderness state park. Sites are gravel and quite roomy, well shaded!! Bathrooms were cleaned daily, showers were nice and hot. Campstore well stocked and firewood and kindling all available. The pet policy is strict-but the result is an absolutely peaceful, well kept, gorgeous campground. there is zero Verizon or T-Mobile here, campground Wi-Fi was sufficient for texts only -I wasn’t able to use it for calls. Starlink managed well despite the (gorgeous) tree cover. I would absolutely return to enjoy the incredible sunsets, beach right across the street, and access to the Porkies right out of your front door!!!

This is a great campground. It is small but quiet and just across the road from Lake Superior. Camp store is well stocked. Staff is helpful. Toilets and showers are clean. WiFi is free. All sites have electricity. Highly recommended! I wish all campgrounds were like this one.

Beautiful campground along Lake Superior located by the Porcupine Moutains in Upper Michigan. This campground is perfect for camper or a tent. Campground and shower house were clean and up kept. The staff was friendly and helpful. This was the perfect weekend getway and disconnect from electronics (cell service is not great but the campground has wifi).We loved being able to hike the Porkies during the day and then walk along the shores at night looking for yooper rocks.

The wife & I just loved this place! Right on the lake with a great atmosphere. Its a little tight in place with rigs over 38' but well worth the effort! Lots of activities nearby and groceries about 12 mile away. We were pleasantly surprised this park! It has a very nice beach in which to enjoy sunsets.

This campground was in the perfect location for visiting the Porcupine Mountains. The sites were fairly small with no privacy barriers in between but our site served it's purpose and there was a bit of a view which was an added bonus. The bathroom/showers were very clean with hot water and the small store on the property was well stocked. I also loved that there was beach access right across the street and that we could hear the waves from the lake at night.
