Dispersed camping on Drummond Island

[Zookeeper]

Has anyone ever done any camping on the state lands on Drummond Island? I know there's the township park and a few campgrounds, but what about heading off into the woods? I know about DNR rules and the need for a permit, so not concerned about that. I'm just wondering if anyone has tried this and how it worked out.

Haven't tried it, but watch out for the poison ivy!!!!

hopefully Lgottler or Brian D, chime in here, I know they used to do it.

I camped with a group down on Marble Head. It was awesome. Woke up in the morning to a beautiful sunrise, grabbed some breakfast, and to leave camp you had to go up Marble Head. Not a bad way to start a morning.

Yep. Kinda hard not to when camping at Marble Head and the sun rises. Your tent heats up to eleventy billion and it's super bright. The two sunrsises I have seen there are really bright due to the reflections off the water and being in an open area.

We did the DOA sunrise run a few years ago. Pulled out around 4:30 am.

What an awesome sight. The photo on my avatar is not a sunset but rather the sunrise at Marblehead! :thumb-up:
