Shupac Lake State Forest Campground
44.8219, -84.4789
Paddlers and panfishers who can show up early on a Friday. The sandy beach and hand-carry boat launch put you on the water in minutes, and lakeside sites have the kind of unobstructed shoreline access you'd pay three times as much for elsewhere.
Only three sites with no reservations means you might drive out and find it full. Add no showers, no electric, and heavy bug pressure all summer, and anyone expecting even basic modern amenities will be disappointed before dark.
Official information for Shupac Lake State Forest Campground from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.

Summer is the most popular season. Daytime highs typically reach the mid-70s to low-80s°F, with cool nights in the 50s–60s°F. The water warms enough for swimming, and early-morning paddles or sunset fishing sessions feel especially rewarding from the lakeside sites. Insect activity is high but manageable with screens and repellent. Weekend crowds are moderate, though lakeside sites fill quickly on first-come, first-served availability.
Most popular season; warm days for swimming, paddling and fishing, per overview.
Rustic lakeside campground with basic facilities: vault/latrine toilets, hand-pump potable water, picnic tables and fire rings at sites. No electricity, no showers, and no sewer/water hookups.
