South Kawishiwi River
Reviewed Aug. 7, 2021

Great find near Ely, MN

We wanted to visit the North American Bear Center so looked for nearby camping. The South Kawishiwi campground is a lovely forest service campground with 30 amp electric in many of its large sites. There are spotless vault toilets, a dumpster, aluminum recycling and a very friendly camp host. Cell service is variable…sometimes fast but occasionally very slow.

There’s also a lovely beach with designated swimming area and a boat launch for small boats, canoes and kayaks.
