Backcountry in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore


Backcountry in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore

Leave-no-trace camping is permitted on both of the Manitou Islands and on the mainland. All sites are open year-round, but the only access to the island sites during the off-season is by private boat, because the ferry doesn't run year-round (see "Get around"). A $5/night backcountry permit is required (good for 1-4 campers), except as noted.
