The Best Camping Near Tower, Minnesota

The camp ground was great place for families. Beach, playground, boat landing, and most sites are on Lake Vermillion. Close to many vacaton options with good sized sites. The camp ground manager was friendly and helpful. The place is busy. Campers need to do a better job cleaning up after themselves as it seems that there is little staff. Set up mainly for RV camping, our site was gravel.

Hoodoo point

Clean,and animal friendly. Provides top fishing for walleyes.

Great walleye and muskie fishing!

Camped here a lot as a kid! Great location to town and some sites right off the lake! 

Nice Tower Campground

Nice little campground that isn’t overly luxurious. Mostly built for RVs with hookups as there isn’t much shade and it would be very hot come July/August. So why stay...the fishing. Campers all had boats to get out on The lake. There is some great walleye fishing here, which is why I stopped. Nothing too fancy but they have almost 60 sites that range. Some are able to be near water and others are just in the sun. Everyone I saw had air conditioners are going. 

It’s all about the fishing here tho. 

Great location on lake Vermillion 

This is a campground with good access to Lake Vermilion and excellent fishing, so that would be a main draw. This is a private campground and has some sites reserved for seasonal RV camping, and other sites avaialble for short term RV or tent camping. Many of the RV sites are open and close together, but there is also a loop set back in the woods that has shady campsites both on or off the lake which are pretty nice. The facilities seem a bit worn over all, but there is a basic camp office with some supplies, great docks for boats, a new playground for kids, and a nice picnic shelter.  I think the man draw here is access to fishing, but you could easily get to Lake Vermilion State Park and the Mesabi Bike Trail which arent far away.
