Robbins Pond Camp

About

Robbins Pond Camp offers a secluded, primitive camping experience in the northeast corner of the Watersmeet Ranger District within Ottawa National Forest. This dispersed campground features three campsites positioned along Robbins Pond, a quiet trout pond tucked into Michigan's deep northwoods. The campground caters to anglers seeking solitude and excellent trout fishing opportunities. Non-motorized boats such as canoes and kayaks can be launched for fishing or paddling. Bank fishing is also productive along the pond's shoreline. Facilities are minimal: a pit toilet is provided, but there is no potable water, trash service, or other amenities. Campers must bring all water and pack out all garbage. Sites and access roads are maintained from May through September; the campground remains technically open year-round but access closes when snow accumulates on forest roads.
