About

Daisy Farm Campground is Isle Royale's largest and most popular backcountry campground, located in the protected waters of Rock Harbor Channel. The campground sits at the intersection of three major trails: the Rock Harbor Trail, Daisy Farm Trail, and Mount Ojibway Trail, making it an ideal base for exploring the island's wilderness. With 16 three-sided shelters and several tent sites, the campground accommodates 25 total sites, though most are first-come, first-served. Three group sites are available by advance reservation for parties of 7 or more. The campground features a seasonally staffed ranger station, vault toilets, non-potable water, food storage lockers, and a dock suitable for overnight boat moorage with 9-foot depth under normal conditions. Due to wolf activity on the east end of the island, strict food storage guidelines are in effect. Access is by foot, canoe, kayak, or private boat only. During peak season from June 1 through Labor Day, a 3-night stay limit is enforced. The remote island location requires self-contained cooking stoves, as ground fires are not permitted.
