We dock in the village on South Manitou. This is where the ranger station is located. There are restrooms in the village with running water and a drinking fountain/pump. There are NO showers. There are outhouses at the Bay Campground, the Weather Station Campground, and also at the Schoolhouse. There is a water pump in the village. There are no water pumps at any of the campgrounds.  Fires are allowed in the designated group fire-rings at the Bay Campground and the Weather Station Campground. No fires are allowed in the Popple Campground.

***WATER PUMP CHANGE ON SOUTH MANITOU:  THE ONLY POTABLE WATER ON THE ISLAND IS IN THE VILLAGE BEHIND THE BOATHOUSE.  NONE OF THE CAMPGROUNDS ON SOUTH MANITOU HAVE POTABLE WATER.
