Best Campgrounds near Bayport, MN

The website is a bit deceptive. We came up with our camper with the expectation we’d have electric and water hook ups. For the most part we did. The electricity was not for a 30 amp hook up. It’s 50 amp or us an adapter. We used the adapter and blew a circuit breaker when we used the A/C and the microwave at the same time. The fishing on the property is fly fishing only. My kids were pretty disappointed but we tried it out anyway. It was nice to have kayaks and paddle boards to try for free, but everything else is a charge. Feeding the cow is a charge. We’re from a rural area where people will pay you to feed the cows so it was a little confusing to us. We really came for the state park and that’s where we spent most of the day. I think this campground has a lot of potential but there needs to be a lot of work. Sewer hook ups and upgrades to electrical hooks. Shower upgrades, maybe switch to coin opt showers to offset the price. This is a great campground for adults looking for a quiet weekend. Not a lot of kids and people stick to themselves.

The campground is super easy to find and right outside of Durand. 🏕️🌲🌳 There are plenty of places to shop, grab ice or fire wood etc. 🛒🔥🧊 There is wifi from the baseball diamond near by. ⚾📶 There are not showers so make sure to prepare for that. 🚿🚫 I suggest using thr bathroom as it has drains and stalls. 🚽🚿 I used a solar camping shower to heat water. ☀️🚿 All sites have electricity hookups as well. 💡🔌 The public pool is also near by as well as the walking trail. 🏊‍♀️🚶‍♀️ The tent sites are $20 a night and the RV sites are $45 you can pay on site. ⛺💲💰

This campground is really beautiful. It's big with over a hundred sites, some with power. No water at the site. Water nearby at stations. Large campsites, most with thick wooded areas between the sites. Most of the trail heads start at the campground. Walked about a mile to the falls area. This was really beautiful and was only a the head was only a couple hundred yards from my site. Unfortunately, I was only able to stay one night as my cross country trip hit this campground on the Thursday before memorial day and the whole weekend was booked. It was cold and a bit muddy (though packed gound) but with some management I was able to keep the inside of the tent clean

I have long overlooked William O’Brien because I thought you had to drive a long way to get away. I was wrong! We planned this weekend with friends to camp in our matching teardrop trailers. We have never really camped with friends before, so the point was to just go, not to really travel far. We loved the trails. It was easy to takes hikes of varying lengths. There were so many different kinds of birds, and the wildflowers were blooming and ferns were unfurling -so many shades of green! This was the first really nice spring weather, and the Savanna Campground was quite full. Several people seemed to be there in groups, but we had no issues with noise. The pit toilets were cleaned and stocked with TP and sanitizer. The shower house needs some paint, but had been cleaned.

The river side of the park had been closed for months for construction, but had just opened two days before our stay. The Riverside campground appeared quite full, too.

All in all, I would visit again. There were lots of people, but it was easy to take a walk and get some space and some nature.
