Everett Park

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Municipal-run and priced at $15 to $20 per night, Everett Park sits lakeside in Welcome, Minnesota, open from mid-April through late September. Sites have electric and water hookups, and a dump station is on-site. The campground is first-come, first-serve, so there are no advance reservations. Anglers and paddlers find the location especially useful, as the park has a dock and is accessible by boat as well as by car.

Water access comes up repeatedly in reviews. The dock and lake proximity are consistent draws, and several visitors note the sites are large and well-spaced. One practical note from reviewers: fill your water tank before getting set up, as hookups are electric only at the sites themselves. The shower facilities are dated but functional, with reported good hot water pressure. The campground stays clean. Noise levels have varied; at least one reviewer noted late-night activity from other campers on a summer weekend.

Carla A. sums up the campground plainly: "Reasonable and it's clean." Staff responsiveness has drawn mixed feedback across the review history, ranging from attentive and welcoming to curt, so experiences may vary depending on who is working. Pets are allowed throughout. Campers traveling through the region can also look into campgrounds near Fairmont for additional options in Martin County. Those wanting a different setup nearby might consider Korte's Checkers Welcome Campground or Cedar Hanson Co Park to the northwest.

Many visitors highlighted the lakeside location with clean facilities and good amenities at reasonable prices. Staff service varies significantly between friendly and unprofessional. Noise levels depend on timing and other campers present.

One night stay

Perfect for just a relaxed evening after a long day of traveling. We paid $25 for electrical hookup. We arrived about 9pm on a Friday and there were plenty of options for sites. Right on the lake so we had a great sunset. A bit on the buggy side in the evening but the morning was big free. Check in with the camp hosts and pay for your site. It was about 5 miles off of I-90w partly on a dirt road.

Quiet and Serene

The spot was stunning, private, and well-maintained. The host was curt and cold. My husband: “What a beautiful spot!” Host: “Yeah. Keep it that way.” So much for hospitality.

Quiet, off the beaten path.

Friendly and helpful staff, very accommodating. Beautiful spot, close to the lake. Water fill station, 30A power, washroom & shower if needed. Great price $25 per night (20 if tenting). If you have kids, looks like a great playground, plenty of room to run & play. Sites are large and well spaced.

Beautiful, peaceful, not too far out of the way.

It was serene and beautiful. The sunset over the water was absolutely amazing. Breathtaking scenery. There is a shower and toilets. And it costs $20 for a tent sight, $25 for a power hookup sight. We'll worth the stop, I almost didn't want to leave. I would stay here again!

Typical small town campground.

Decent little dock and shelter house. Dump station. Campfire rings and picnic tables. Bathrooms were decent. Electrical hookup only. Kids screaming and people partying super late.

Would not recommend due to poor customer service.

Disclaimer: I have not visited this park. I planned to visit August but decided against it due to the poor customer service and lack of professionalism. The number provided above is correct, but whoever is answering the phone immediately sounds annoyed and gives the impression that he couldn't care less. I also filtered "reservable" campsites into my search. This campground is first-come-first-serve. Not sure why it popped up on the map.

Nice place right on the lake. Campground manager is nice. Sites are electric only. Fill with water before setting up. Reasonable and it's clean. If you like to fish you want to come here
