Feldtmann Lake Campground is located on the shoreline of Feldtmann Lake, off the Feldtmann Lake and Feldtmann Ridge Trails, on the southwest end of Isle Royale National Park.
Isle Royale National Park is a remote archipelago in the middle of Lake Superior. To make the most of your visit, it is necessary that you plan ahead and prepare. Be aware that many services and items that are available on the mainland are not available at Isle Royale. Due to the unpredictable waters of Lake Superior and its effect on island weather, be prepared for any and all weather conditions.
All park visitors pay an entrance fee. Self-contained stoves only. Dogs, cats, and other pets are not allowed. Quiet hours are from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. EDT/ 9:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. CDT. Fishing licenses are not required for inland lakes and streams on the island. However, Michigan size, season, and possession limits still apply. Only barbless hooks and artificial lures and flies may be used on inland lakes and streams. A State of Michigan fishing license is required to fish in the waters of Lake Superior.
Feldtmann Lake Campground is located on the southwest end of Feldtmann Lake on the southwest end of Isle Royale. A relatively flat and brushy trail leads to the campground. This backcountry campground includes a vault toilet. Ground covering is thick with mostly thimbleberries and large leaf aster. A beaver dam is located on the south side of the lake. Wildlife viewing is common. The Rainbow Cove trail extends from the campground southwesterly to Lake Superior. Rainbow Cove is a rocky inlet upon the shores of Lake Superior. The Rock of Ages Lighthouse can be viewed on a clear day from Rainbow Cove.
