We had a nice site on the corner, very close to the river to drop in our kayaks, clean bathrooms and showers.

Nice place but small sites

Sites are small and crowded with some road noise but has everything you need. Close to hiking trails and not far from towns to get things you forgot.

Small quiet campground on the St Louis River

Quiet campground on the st Louis River just south of duluth and close to Jay Cooke state park. Most sites were pretty open but nice spots right on the river. Water and electric at those sites. We stayed 2 nights. Only complaint was the hosts or owners kids running around and being kind of rude. Signage I think was difficult for some people. We had family staying in the cabin and everyone thought they were the host.

Nice bathrooms and shower rooms according to other members in our group. Small playground and sandbox for kids. Horseshoes, ladder toss, and bag toss provided by campground.

Nice city park across the street with short walking trail through the woods and a larger playground.

Peaceful

We stayed here for two nights over the 4th of July. A little crowded on the river front but our site was tucked into a more secluded area not far from the river. The hosts were very nice and accommodating. This campground does not take reservations. It is on a first come basis. We had no problem finding a place to park here. No showers but water and electric were available, only vault toilets but they are kept up very well. No designated swimming area. There was however Horseshoe and bag pits, a small game room and at least one cabin for rental. Self serve pay station with firewood to purchase also. It was a very quiet place and there were many families with children who were playing on the small playground, shooting hoops, fishing, and riding bike. Many biking and hiking trails close by. It is very close to Jay Cook State Park. We enjoyed our stay.

Kitschy Roadside Fun!

-kind campground hosts with quiet but well-used atvs

-easy lake access with docks and shoreline

-free wifi

-this is a good day-of campsite if you’re looking for an adventure or a fun story to tell! It’s not solitude and it’s not perfect silence, but it’s a peaceful place to rest your head and cook something over a fire.
