"Close to the off road vehicle park. Definitely camping here again next summer!"
GuideBeautiful forested campsite, the middle site is way better than the other two in terms of grassy area to tent/hang out. Dirt road access is good, could maybe get away with low clearance, but the last hundred feet is on a 2-track so maybe not. We saw turtles nesting in the mid-part of the 2-track so watch out for them in the evenings. Medium amounts of mosquitoes.
GuideThis campground is on a fairgrounds by a race track. Thursday nights and sometimes Saturday nights if there are races it's noisy and dirty. Sites are nice with gravel pads and grass. Lots of room to walk the dog. Bike trail close and horse shows to watch. Lake with swimming and fishing pier right across the street.
TravelerCamped in site 14 as part of our visit to all MN state parks. Very familiar with the area due to the BWCA but not this state park. Our site had a great combination of open area for wind flow and sun and shade to put our tent in. Again faced with great bathrooms a short walk and showers/larger rest room a short distance away. The site itself offered some of the more sheltered/remote camping locations of our trip (found those on the North Shore to be stacked on top one another) which is becoming nicer and nicer with the increase in RVs and generators in state parks. Lovely park, friendly staff, would love to visit again!
GuideThis campsite really surprised me and exceeded my expectations. I simply was looking for a campground with a shower, and this definitely delivered that and so much more. Every single campsite has potable water and electric hook up, which I don’t need since I don’t have a camper, but it does come in handy. I was able to charge my E bike battery. Something I would not have been able to do Without it. The town is very small and has a few amenities. But this campsite is delightful. Campos is readily available to assist you and also sells firewood at a very fair price. There is a beautiful aluminum dock for campsite/public use. You are allowed to fish here and if you catch fish, there is a fish cleaning station that is Crisp and clean.
TravelerNice campground has over 100 campsites, some with Full hook up some just with electric and water some on the lake. Very clean and organized place.
TravelerAt this time of year this camps, mine is wide open. It’s right on the lake. There is actually no one else around. Nice big spots.
GuideWe rode ATV to this site and it empty. Right on the river and we needed bug spray for sure. There is a nice spring fed water hose that was close enough to hear while falling a sleep. It’s a bit out there from the ATV trails so we won’t be stopping again but it worked well for us.
ScoutThis campground is one of the best in the area, I was very impressed by the community beach, and also the outhouse is located on the north and south side of the campground. Also, the owners were super friendly and accommodating.
I was impressed by the quality of the bundles of firewood that I received, and also at the price of the ice, it seemed very fair overall, really good campground, will be back
TravelerI would highly recommend this campground,it’s clean,great fishing,swimming,walking. We stayed for a week with our dogs,and our girls had a blast. Thank you
