Set at the northern tip of Wisconsin, the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore encompasses 12 miles of coastline and 12 islands, which are fondly referred to as the "Jewels of Lake Superior". There are campgrounds on 19 of the islands as well as one on the mainland, and as many of the islands only have one campsite, advance reservations are required.

Most of the sites can only be reached by boat, and although amenities vary from campground to campground, campers can typically expect to find a fire ring, a vault toilet, a bear-proof locker, and a picnic table.
