What visitors say

The Rossport Campground is the smaller, lakeside half of Rainbow Falls Provincial Park, set right on Lake Superior beside the highway. Campers rave about waking up to water views, with some sites on their own stretch of rocky shoreline and clear water. Several call it a favourite on the upper Superior shore.

There's a loop of 30-amp electric sites and a non-electric loop. Reviewers mention clean flush toilets and showers, some of them heated, plenty of potable water taps, and a water fill station for RVs. The sani-dump is a few minutes away at the main Whitesands campground, where you also check in unless you've pre-registered.

It's a good overnight or multi-night stop on a Lake Superior road trip. Visitors hike the Rainbow Falls and nature trails at the main campground, walk the rocky beach looking for sea glass, and track down the red chairs in nearby towns. There's a path for walking dogs, though dogs aren't allowed on the beach.

Sites are open and some are cramped, and there's some highway and train noise, though lakeside sites sit furthest from the road. One camper found the firewood poor, and nights can be cold, so tenters should pack warm layers. Follow the park signs rather than GPS, which has sent some visitors down the wrong road. One EV owner found the 30-amp posts wouldn't charge their car.
