We moved yesterday to a very nice campsite at Penn Lake Park and Campground. This campground is owned and operated by the Town of Marathon, ON. We have full hookups and 50 amp electrical service. As you can see, there is nothing behind our site but trees, so we have a good deal of privacy. There are only 18 serviced and 9 unserviced sites.
Marathon is on the shore of Lake Superior about halfway between Sault Ste. Marie and Thunder Bay.
The campgound sits on pretty little Penn Lake. Across this end of the lake you can see the sandy beach.
The other end of the lake is rockier and more wild.
There’s a nice trail that goes around the lake, but neither Bud nor Matey has wanted to walk around it with me yet. This is just the section behind the tent sites.
This morning we drove across town to the beach at Lake Superior.
The beach is down a bank. At the top are benches and lookouts.
There’s a steep bit of trail down.
Pebbles indeed! These rocks were the size of cantaloupes.
Very pretty to look at but not a place to lay your towel down for sunbathing.
Bud then went grocery shopping while I pushed Matey back to the campground in his stroller.
There are several pedestrian walkways, including this culvert under the railroad tracks.
I think that post is there to keep ATVs from using this, as there are also ATV trails through the town.
I stayed on sidewalks and pedestrian walkways.
It was a nice walk and from Lake Superior back to the campsite, crossing the whole town, was only a bit over a mile and a half.
Now Matey and I are out relaxing in my tent. Yeah, I think this place is pretty nice.
On the Roam Again 
What a great spot for a campground! Right on a pretty little lake and within walking distance of Lake Superior! I hope you get a chance to hike around the little lake before you have to leave. That Pebble Beach not only looks like a bad place to lay down on your beach towel for a tan, but it looks like a difficult place to walk. It is pretty though!
