Camp Seven Creek Kayaking Guide
Two different Upper Peninsula streams share the name Camp Seven Creek. The one documented as a protected trout stream runs from its source in T47N, R13W, Section 30 to the East Branch of the Fox River, and it is included in the Fox River Natural River district, meaning development and use along it are managed to preserve its natural character.
This Camp Seven Creek is a small tributary of the Fox River system in the central Upper Peninsula — brook trout water running through low, wet forest country. It is not an established paddling destination: no canoe or kayak route, no put-in or take-out, and no public access point specific to this creek appears in any published paddling source.
A second stream with the same name, Camp Seven Creek in Delta County near Garden Corners and Isabella (mapped near 45.93941, -86.58570), is likewise only a name on a map as far as paddling is concerned. The map below marks the Schoolcraft County creek included in the Fox River Natural River plan; treat the location as approximate and verify it against a current topographic map or the county road commission before visiting.
