".🌲🐶 Tucked away near the archery range(don’t worry—nobody’s aiming at your pup), this campsite offers a solid patch of peace where dogs can sniff, stretch, and settle in by the fire."
Scout30' class C motor home. Some overhanging branches on the road in scrape the top and sides. Campsites are nice, mowed, gravel parking. Fire rings and picnic tables at each site. Sites range from open and flat to secluded and a little hilly. Most sites are fairly private and well spaced. Higher elevation sites for air tv reception. 2 bars of 4g service made it a little difficult to pay online over the phone. No reception in lower elevation sites. Pay immediately or the camp host will nag you even if you have to walk to higher elevation to get signal. Very beautiful and lots of deer on the trails.
ScoutChecking was easy with owner on site. A little steep getting up to x Some of the site. Bathroom and shower house were great
ScoutFacilities are great no complains, the beach is a bit over run my goose so is a little dirty, there is a great spot below the dam to cool off if needed.
ScoutThis hidden gem is a PRIVATE RV Park where each lot is individually owned and most owners live South in the winter. Individual owners can rent their lot with restrictions and those rentals are between the owner and the renter. The owners association is not involved in these rentals or the disputes that sometimes arise. That said, we own a riverside lot and absolutely love it here.
GuideStayed here for an overnight stop through MN. Close to downtown which was nice for us coming through. Water fill stations readily available so we loaded up prior to continuing out west. Easy late check in with campsite hosts. Lots of site options from open gield options to pretty tree covered areas. Fire grates and restrooms ava. Your reservation fee does NOT include the daily parks fee of 7 dollars just FYI. Lots of mosquitoes but it's MN so that's to be expected. Close to a top 10 disc golf course if that's your thing (it's ours)
GuideWe stayed at Site 133 and found it to be fairly spacious. One downside was that there’s a trail running just behind the site, and several campers cut through our area to access it, which disrupted the sense of privacy.
While the walk to the running water bathroom was a bit longer than we preferred, the facilities themselves were clean and nicely updated.
There weren’t many mature trees or good spots for hammocking, but the dense sumac in July offered great natural privacy. We also appreciated being in a no-generator loop, which kept things peaceful—though highway noise was noticeable in the evenings.
Overall, a solid site with a few trade-offs.
TravelerTheres alot of hiking trails, the rustic sites are very nice, swim pond, fishing pier.
ScoutSites are large with varying degrees of privacy. Well spaced out, just some have less undergrowth. Be aware that the undergrowth is at least 25% poison ivy. Sites are large so they are clear. If you’re susceptible, not for you
TravelerClean bathrooms with hot water, clean laundry room.
