Good campsite and good view of Fall Colors

Our campsite, #57, was secluded with a good view of the Canal and the fall colors. The staff was both friendly and helpful. My wife and enjoyed having such a secluded place to camp so near to the Michigan Tech campus where our Granddaughter goes to school. We really enjoyed our stay.

Good Base for Fall Colors

We are a repeat visitor. Last time 2015. Really did not notice any updates just maintaining what is there. A bit chilly in Men's bath with only one small electric wall heater. Overall a good stay in #46 but needed 75 feet plus of hose to get to water.

Enjoyable Stay!

Stayed in site 28, was very happy with our stay. Campground has a good mix of wooded and open sites, depending on what you are looking for. Paved roads throughout the campground were great for the kids to ride bikes on. Will go back again

Great Place to Camp

Was so very happy at this camp site, water and elect. at my site (25). Staff was very helpful and kind. Had trees and bushes on most sides of our site so was kinda private. we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Good find

Nice campground on the Portage Canal. Mostly local families. Beach next door, boat ramp in campground. No water or sewer at site but a dump station and water (too close to the dump in my opinion.)

Nice campsite!

Wasn't sure of what a city camp would be like. Was really surprised at the well maintained camp sites. Was extremely quiet, and was not able to hear or see other campers from our secluded site (#58). There is a city beach right next door on the river. I filled up the camper with water before arriving (no water or sewer available at our site). Overall a great camping experience.

Great campground

My husband, kids and I have been camping here a few years now. The best sites are 30, 53, 54 and 58. We shy away from sites near the restrooms because they are more on top of each other. This past week we caught perch, bass, suckers and pike in the canal off the dock and right in front of site 53. Great Beach a short walk away and nice bathrooms.

Great campground near town

We have stayed here several times while visiting the Hancock/Houghton area. Great sites, nice bathroom building, very reasonable rates. Good basecamp location.

nice campground

Stumbled upon this campground and grabbed a spot to have for a weekend while we explored the area . Busy weekend w/ lots of people doing Halloween themes, but not too noisy or loud. Decent enough bathrooms, well kept. My only complaint is people that run hoses from the PUBLIC water sources to their camper and leave them. Almost no place to get water. Would be nice if staff would remind campers that the water sources that the taps are for everyone, not just those lucky enough to get a site near the faucet.

Great place to make your base camp

We first tried the State Park but found it wasn't Big Rig Friendly plus it didn't have cell service or internet and some of the Electric posts needed a second extension cord. Running back into town to get another extension cord we found the City of Hancock Campground and decided to check them out. They are everything the State Park isn't! Since we do some work on the road, this was the perfect park for us. Clean, friendly, several large private sites and some out in the open. Most are easy to get into and walking around we saw the best tent sites we've ever seen in a campground. Almost made us want to go back to tent camping... almost. Great place, well thought out, and priced right.

JULY IN PARADICE UP STYLE

We've been coming here for several years to visit family in July, and you can't find a better park to visit. Its close ot all the great restaurants in Hancock/Houghton MI and surrounding areas ( never found a bad one yet) and is true3ly the gateway to the Keewenaw Peninsula, great trails for hiking, biking
