Ojibwa Casino & Campround Marquette, MI

 


      We have been visiting here for several years.  Most notably when they offered 7 free campsites with electricity with water refill available.  There was not only no charge, but when registering every day, they also gave $5 play credits.  It is a small casino with plenty of charm.

     They have spent the past 7 years remodeling not only the casino, but the parking area with not only overnight spots (admittedly these are not very level) but an RV park as well.  We decided that after 4 straight days of OTRing across from Montana we would chill for a couple of days.  


      They only recently opened the RV park the first of May, so were some of the first to check it out.  The new park offers full hookups as well as picnic tables and fire pits.  They also offer a central bathroom/shower facility.  We camped here for 3 days recovering a bit from the stresses of our nightmarish winter travels.  We'll get home soon, but Barb could use the break. 
 

      There are 57 total new campsites, both back in and pull through.  All seem to have full hookups, but there is a dump station with potable/non-potable water.  


      The spots are level, but I still needed to use 1 board to level mine.  Not a big deal, that is why I carry it.  There is also a very clean bathroom shower facility with both men's and women's sides, each with their own showers.  Also, there are 3 other shower doors including unisex (?) and a family shower (??)


      We were in spot #15, which is closest to the bathrooms on the end our row.  It was about a 40-yard stroll.  The campground is on the bottom of the slope from the casino, about a 300-yard walk.  Camping is the same for either back in or pull through sites.  A bit high at $43.70 per night, but it is brand new.  The Grand Opening was only 5 days ago, and we are the third customer and of course the first in our spot.  The facilities are top notch, being new.  Let's hope they stay that way.  By the way, Barb said the casino itself is also very nice, but I wouldn't know.  I am content to play Camp Bitch.
