We stumbled upon this campground after spending a night camping in a parking lot along the Hennepin Canal. Another camper walked right over and said he loved it here. They were already going on 2 weeks at Francis Park. It's charm won us over quite quickly.

The campground is small and almost like an open field among tall trees. We drove along a road but part of it was driving on the grass. Sites are marked with electric but I'm not sure if it worked since we are solar. There are many picnic tables but most are piled up by the pavilion. We bring out own table and chairs so we didn't need to pull one over. We didn't see the host but the number is there to call if they have run out of papers by the office.

There is a playground and pavilion. Restrooms are there but closed up. There is a beautiful house that is made into a museum. It was closed due to covid but it looks intriguing. This is a nice, quiet campground tucked in among farmland.

Children would have fun running around the big grassy field but we drove on looking for a longer hiking trail. We found some nearby along with some nice small farm towns.
