Kewadin Casino in Manistique, MI
Overview and Visitor Guide

Previous Reviews:

Kewadin Casino in Manistique: RV camping area outside of casino parking lot. There are several spots on the grass with 20-amp hookups along with picnic tables. There are a few 30-amp outlets at the post right where the parking lot meets the grass. This area was honestly nicer than some paid campgrounds where we have stayed. No dump or water here – but thankfully we had taken care of all that at their other location in St. Ignace.

The casino is small but fun enough to play some slots. If you happen to get drinks in the bar, be sure to get your free popcorn! Staff were all really friendly and helpful. We were able to get on their wi-fi while inside the casino. Get a players card and you’ll get $5 of slot play! It says to check-in about RV camping, but you really don’t need to – we just did it as a courtesy.

About This Location

Kewadin Casino in Manistique, MI brings together small-town friendliness and a taste of Vegas-style gaming up in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. It’s open every day and welcomes both locals and travelers who want to try their luck on the slots or catch some live entertainment. You’ll spot the casino right on US-2, so it’s pretty convenient whether you’re just passing through or planning to hang around a bit.

The Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians owns and runs Kewadin Casino, blending tribal business with a hometown feel. Even though it’s not huge, the place stays busy thanks to a steady stream of promotions and events. If you want to stick around longer, you’ll find easy parking and camping options nearby.

Personally, I like how Kewadin Casino manages to keep things lively without losing its welcoming, laid-back vibe. The tribal connection means the business runs smoothly and supports the local community—even after some tough setbacks, like those ransomware attacks they dealt with not too long ago.

Key Takeways

• The casino’s easy to reach and open every day.
• It mixes local flavor with gaming and entertainment.
• Tribal ownership keeps things stable for the business and community.

If you want to step outside the casino, Manistique has some cool spots. Kitch-Iti-Kipi, or The Big Spring, is nearby and worth a visit if you’re into nature. Palms Book State Park isn’t far, either, and has some pretty unique scenery.

Some spots have 30-amp hookups, too. No water or sewer, unfortunately, but the electric’s reliable for basic needs. The Kewadin Casino in Manistique is easy to spot from the highway, but keep an eye out for signs as you get close.

Parking’s free for RVs in this section, but don’t expect full hookups. The ground’s grassy, so if it’s been raining, it might be a little soft for heavier trailers.

Take Kewadin Hessel RV Park, for instance. They charge $22 per night for sites with electrical hookups, and $17 per night if you don’t need electricity. It’s a solid option if you want to stay close to the casino but still get some outdoor time.

We don’t have permit or paid camping directly in Manistique. But if you check out nearby towns like Sault Ste. Marie or St. Ignace, you’ll find campgrounds and parks with permit and paid options. Some spots offer seasonal permits or daily fees, and you can usually book ahead for busy times—think Christmas or those packed summer weekends.

If you’re rolling through the Upper Peninsula and want to mix gaming with camping, stopping at these places can really make things easier. It’s smart to check local rules and see what’s available before you show up.
