Marquette Tourist Park

2019 West Again, Michigan, Road Trip, States

Marquette Tourist Park west of Pictured Rocks offered a good place to rest our heads last night. We arrived without a reservation but still got Site 43 with electric, water, shade, and soon rain. We were grateful for good Verizon service and spent some time on the phone catching up with family and friends. This morning as we were emptying tanks we spent some time with Nick, a teacher from Tallahassee, Florida who spends his summers each year exploring Michigan’s U.P. while camping in his truck. After a T@B 400 tour, he’s wanting to rethink his sleeping accommodations.
