Boondocks

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Boondocks sits adjacent to the Boondocks Bar and Grill along the highway corridor leading toward Voyageurs National Park, with the Rainy Lake Visitor Center roughly 30 minutes out. The campground has 21 gravel sites with 30 and 50 amp electric and water hookups, a dump station at the exit, and pet walking areas behind the property. Sites 1–14 accommodate big rigs, and at least one or two pull-throughs are available. The campground opens earlier in the season than many nearby options, which matters for campers planning spring itineraries. Woodenfrog Campground and other public sites in the area fill up or stay closed into late April, making this a practical fallback. International Falls, about 20 minutes away, has shopping and laundry facilities.

Beautiful New RV Campground

Brand new, well designed RV Campground next to Boondocks Bar & Grill. They have 21 spaces, 50/30 amp electric only sites. Sites 1-14 are good for big rigs. Management is fantastic, we really enjoyed the park and the restaurant. Will come back here in the future.

Our go to campground for Voyageurs NP

We loved this campground, It is beside the Boondocks Bar and Grill and is owned by the same people. Dez and Kirk were the consummate hosts, friendly and so nice, we could not have asked for better. We cold called them last minute in late April, most of the other campgrounds were not open for the season, but they welcomed us, which saved our butts because we literally would have had to drive hours and completely redo our itinerary. The Bar and Grill is next door and has great food, awesome drinks, friendly locals and bingo on Thursday nights. The campground is easily accessible and the sites are not difficulty to back into, all were graveled and we had minimal leveling, even with the water and mud. I think there are at least 1 or 2 pull throughs but due to the snow and standing water we parked in site #2. They have 30 and 50 amp, potable water (wasn't on throughout the park when we were there due to the weather) and a dump site at the exit. They are pet friendly and there are areas for walking leashed pets behind the park. It is conveniently right off the highway and we did not even notice any traffic noises in the evening. International Falls is approx 20 minutes away, with shopping, laundromat and the Canadian Border. Voyageurs NP, Rainy Lake Visitor Center is approx 30 min. This is now our go to campground when we visit Voyageurs NP.
