Exploring the North

Really nice free campsites on a beautiful lake, there are a lot more lakes in the area as well as more free campgrounds! Rustic camping, no cell service, garbage pickup, or running water. Pack out what you pack in! There’s an open pit toilet in a great location from the sites and lake; and each site has a fire ring and picnic table. There was a lot of traffic, to the lake and other campers coming in and out, during the two weeks we were there, that’s our only complaint, but who could we blame for coming to enjoy this beautiful place just like us? Definitely will be back in the area again, we’re going to check out Toohey Lake or Lake Harriet next trip. (Lake Harriet is known for the wild blueberries in the campground.)
