Timber Creek Campground is a Forest Service site in the Baldwin Ranger District of the Huron-Manistee National Forest in Michigan. It sits near a small impoundment, though the impoundment is not a popular fishing spot. The campground's main draw is the North Country National Scenic Trail trailhead, which makes it a natural base for hikers on the trail. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run to highs around 81°F in July and 72°F in September, with July and August seeing the fewest wet days of the year. The site has vault toilets, and a fee is charged. ORV use is prohibited in the campground, and in winter the site is plowed, giving access to the Ward Hills Snowmobile Trail. Sulak Campground is about 2 miles away, and Elk Canoe Backcountry Campsites is about 2 miles off. Bowman Lake Backcountry Campsites and the Bowman Lake Area fishing spot are both about 4 miles away.
