Blind Sucker No. 2 State Forest Campground
46.6680, -85.7550
Paddlers and pike fishers get the most from this place. Several waterfront sites sit right on the Blind Sucker Flooding, the 7.3-mile Blind Sucker Pathway starts at the west end of camp, and reviewers say it's rarely full even on summer weekends. Bring your own supplies from Newb
The access road is rough and washboard, the hand-pump water sometimes runs brown and needs treatment, swimming is poor due to marshy conditions, and bugs near the wetlands are brutal in warm months. No hookups, no showers, no reliable cell service.

Summer brings the most reliable conditions, with daytime highs in the mid-60s to mid-70s and cool nights in the 40s and 50s. Water levels are best for boating and fishing during these months, and long daylight hours give you time to explore trails and backroads. Weekdays stay quiet even in July and August. The campground is open year-round, but winter roads and sites remain unplowed. Bugs are heavy during warm months. Bring strong repellent.
Best season: reliable temps, best water levels for boating/fishing and long daylight.
