Hand-pump water is available on-site, though the official information indicates potable water is not available, so campers should plan accordingly. The campground operates seasonally from May 3 through November 30 and requires advance reservations through the Huron Shores Ranger Station. No fees are charged for individuals or small groups of 74 people or less. During winter months, the area remains accessible for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, though the trail is not groomed. The site offers a quiet, primitive camping experience in the national forest with basic amenities suitable for self-sufficient campers and their horses.
