Baker Lake Rustic Campground

Darkness envelops campers at this dispersed campground where sites spread far apart across the forest floor. Baker Lake Rustic Campground operates under US Forest Service management within Superior National Forest, offering drive-in access to spacious individual sites. A restroom facility exists on-site, though maintenance appears inconsistent based on visitor reports. Firewood availability tends to be good, which proves helpful during cold nights when temperatures can drop significantly. The remote setting means limited lighting and substantial distance between camping spots. Campers seeking more developed facilities might consider Crescent Lake Campground located 2.1 miles east.

So quiet

This place was pretty scary to camp at. T=Its just you at night and the darkness. You are in a pretty big site and campsites are spread out pretty far apart. The site did have a restroom but wasn't maintained. There was a lot of firewood an dat night the temperature got really cold.
