Tahquamenon Falls 2 State Park campground
Tahquamenon Falls 2 State Park
The camping area offers 147 sites, including both rustic and modern sites with electrical hookups. There are also showers, restrooms, and a dump station for RVs. Reservations can be made online or by phone, and the campground is open from early May through late October.
One quirky fact about the area is that the water in the Tahquamenon River and Falls appears brown due to tannins from cedar swamps in the surrounding area. This unique feature adds to the beauty of the falls and river.
The best time to visit is during the summer months when temperatures average in the mid-70s. However, visitors can also enjoy the fall foliage in September and October when temperatures range from the 40s to low 60s. It is important to note that the park can be busy during peak season, so visitors should plan accordingly.
