Old Mill Campground

Wow. Beautiful trees. Grass field with electric. 15$ per night. In middle of cool Swedish town. Trails. Will be back. No reservations. Two other campers in field with about 25 30 amp sites Grassy sites. .

It’s all about the town... the campground is really just a nice shady grassy area with electric hookups. We were the third camper there and it was plenty spacious. There are picnic tables and local police made occasional rounds. Bathrooms but no showers or water hookups (water available across the pedestrian bridge at the museum). The museum though! It’s fantastic. The town is a nice walk into town and the people were so friendly. We will purposefully find every opportunity to return!

Lindsborg is a super cool little town with a good bit of stuff to do within walking distance of the campsite. Lots of Swedish culture (read up on it). Pool, water park, playgrounds, museum and more are walking distance. But the campground is simple and quiet. Separated from the city by the river, you cross an old highway bridge turned pedestrian bridge to get to the town. Main Street is an easy walk with restaurants, a great coffee shop, art galleries and more. The homes around town are beautiful and it’s just a neat little place to spend a day.

Our family’s haunts are usually far more rustic/remote with boondocking and very small state parks top on the list. But this place makes a great stopover on the way home to ease yourself back into civilization.

Grass parking, 30 amp hookups and no water connections (you may fill tanks at the museum) keep the big boys away. It’s rarely full except on holidays and the Swedish family reunion they host each year. Call the Old Mill Museum for details.

There are toilets, but I don’t think there are showers.
