There are National Forest camps in the area also--Blind Sucker, and Lake Superior NF east of Grand Marais. And Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore has 10 Mile Beach and Hurricane River CGs. Others more inland but September should be okay for finding sites?
Love the UP! We lived there 34 years.   less

Jerry Beasler Mon at 6:27 PM I believe it is Fort Wilkins. Copper Harbor Mi. Nice campground

John And Debbie Maxson 13 hours ago Carol below gave good info. There are a few casinos also for a overnight. We stayed at one just entering UP on right while we made further plans.

Betty Erter Mon at 11:11 AM Hi,, not much to tell other than Be Safe & have fun in your Roadtrek,, I have a  2002D190P & the nice thing about them is we can park them anywhere you would park a car..

Suzan and Art Mon at 2:44 PM We travelled from NY to Montana dry camping all the way across.  Some real boondocking, some parking lots etc.

The Easterbunnies Mon at 3:44 PM Are you going through ND or SD?

Ron & Ina Johnson Mon at 5:22 PM If you swing slightly south thru Nebraska and Iowa; there are a lot of small twons with nice city parks where camping may not be free, but very low cost ($20 or less)

Denise Washington April 11 Don’t know what they offer or cost, but we have AAA with the RV option. Costs less than $150 year with one 200 mile tow and 3 100 mile tows.  Have not used it yet, but a friend has it and she has used it several times with good results

The towing service they sent was also a fleet services company with a 24 hr mechanic on duty. He got us fixed and on our way at 8pm on a Friday evening.   less

Author Toni Mariani April 13 So sorry they Pissed you off. Take a few deep breaths, count to ten, and get back out there. A woman walked right into our camp space on Thursday while we were just setting up, and allowed her dog to Crap on our site! Oh, talking about pissed! I was hot 🔥!

Seann ( the Canadian) April 6 I will also vote for a barker 42 gallon tank you always want to get one that has a dump valve on the side some of the ones that you can buy have to be lifted vertically to dump and if you have health issues it"s not the thing you want to do.

I also got a macerator pump and the tank now sits in the back of my truck and I drive it back and forth this trying to pull it on the ground going 2 miles an hour is ridiculous. Since I always boondock the dump station can be 15 or 20 miles away. also try and get one that's larger than your holding tank so you don't get any nasty surprises  less

Terry & Diane April 6 THANKS EVERYONE! That points me in the same direction I was headed

John & Diana April 6 One more input. Don't get one too big. I have a 35 gallon Barker that gets pretty heavy when full.Also, you need a place to store it when traveling.It's big and bulky.

Dealing with the portable tank was always a hassle. A 40 gallon tank weighs 320# and is not easy to drag around. Even if you can tow it to the dump station with your car, you still have to pull it to the front of your campsite by hand. If you have health issues, is that feasible?  less

Lowes, Home Depot, and Walmart are stocking their Garden Centers and that means water available.  However the long green rubber hoses they use might not be the best for taste and quality, so be sure to use your own water filter on the fill.  less

Collins and North Park (Walden area).  There are also a bunch along US40 over Rabbit Ears Pass towards Steamboat Springs, and I believe there are several places up near Stagecoach Reservoir up there.

Here in Central Colorado, there are some nice spots up near the top of Kenosha Pass on US285, and I really like the FourMile Creek Road area near Fairplay.  Several of the boondocking location shots in the RV Nomads movie were filmed along Trout Creek Pass near Buena Vista.  Once the snow melts and the seasonal roads start reopening for the summer, there are also some nice places up in Taylor Park just off Cottonwood Pass between Buena Vista and Crested Butte.  I believe there are also some nice spots along Kebler Pass between Crested Butte and Paonia.

Just a few ideas to get you started.......   less
