This park has something for everyone. The trails take visitors around wet lowlands, oak savanna, and grasslands. Albert Lea Lake and park marshes draw hundreds of waterfowl during migration. Oak savanna and prairie landscape, including wetlands, dominate most of the park. One of the more unique aspects of the park is the 116-acre Big Island, covered with maple/basswood forest. Another is the glacial esker located in the northeast section of the park.

A family-run campground originally designed to give I-35 construction workers a place to call home back in 1976 has transformed into a home away from home for many as they venture out for weekend getaways, cross country travels, and participate in numerous sporting events in the area.
We are open April 15-October 15, weather permitting, as Mother Nature decides on the last and first hard freeze of the winter, not us. Originally an old dairy farm homesteaded in 1853, remnants of the big woods from Laura Ingalls Wilder tales and organic cornfields surround the grounds, giving plenty of space for lightning bugs to play and incredible views of the Milky Way at night.
Full-service hookups available, a playground for the kids, a small convenience store and the Historic Straight River Bridge Pavilion can be found here. Fishing, boating, bird watching, hiking and more are all close by.
An hour south of the Twin Cities(Mall of America, Prince and Charles Schultz Museums, etc.), 15 minutes from Medford Outlet Mall, and ten minutes north of Owatonna, you will find us at Exit 32, just across the freeway from Hope, MN, which happens to be home of the best better in the world.
