Welcome to Maplewood State Park Campground! This spot is a real gem, especially if you're into hiking and mountain biking. The park is massive, with miles of trails that wind through some stunning scenery. If you time it right, the fall colors here are absolutely breathtaking.
The campground itself offers a mix of tent, RV, cabin, and even glamping accommodations. It's got all the essentials: drinking water, electric hookups, showers, and toilets. You can also bring your pets along, and yes, you can have a campfire—firewood is available for purchase at the park office.
One of the standout features here is the spacious campsites. Some folks have mentioned that a few sites are a bit slanted, but overall, there's plenty of room to spread out. If you're lucky, you might snag a spot with a great view of Grass Lake. Speaking of lakes, there are eight within the park, perfect for kayaking, fishing, or just soaking in the peaceful vibes. Beers Lake is a favorite for its calm coves and good fishing.
For those who like a bit of adventure, the park offers boat rentals and has a swim beach and picnic area at Lake Lida. And if you're into wildlife, keep an eye out for loons, beavers, and even the occasional muskrat.
The park is conveniently located near Pelican Rapids, so if you forget any essentials, a quick drive will get you sorted. Plus, the nearby towns of Fargo and Moorhead offer additional activities if you're looking to explore the area.
So, whether you're here for a night or a week, Maplewood State Park Campground has plenty to offer. Enjoy your stay!
