Loomis Landing Campground

Loomis Landing Campground is a campground in Wellston, Michigan, situated on the backwaters of Tippy Dam, which spans 9,000 acres at the mouth of the Pine River. The property is surrounded by thousands of acres of Manistee National Forest land and serves visitors looking to fish, hunt, camp, canoe, kayak, pontoon, or boat the surrounding waters. The campground also operates a marina on the same site, giving guests access to the water alongside overnight accommodations. The Pine River at this location is part of a Nationally Designated Wild and Scenic River System, and the backwaters still hold the Michigan state record walleye, caught in front of the property on January 1, 1951, weighing 17 pounds 3 ounces.

The grounds are described as a true waterfront property within the Manistee National Forest, with natural four-season photographic opportunities throughout. Large fish are common on these waters, a pattern documented over many decades. The original founder, Dewey W. Loomis, caught numerous walleye in the 12 to 16 pound range along with several trophy pike, and his catches earned him Field and Stream Magazine Master Angler Awards for one walleye and two pike. The current host is Steve Bussell.

The campground sits along Husier Road in Wellston, Michigan, tucked into the national forest. Reservation requests can be submitted online, sent by email, mailed, or made by calling 231-878-0989. Guests are welcomed as visitors seeking a haven to nature within this stretch of northern Michigan forest and water.
