Best RV Parks & Resorts near Crosby, MN

269 Reviews

Several RV parks surround Crosby, Minnesota, providing convenient access to the Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area. Crosby Memorial City Park offers electric hookup sites within walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants, with a shower house and dump station available. Minnesota National RV Park features full hookup sites with 50 amp service situated on a golf course, though the utility hookups are designed specifically for Class A motorhomes. "Our site (33) was tucked way back in the woods, had a nice bit of privacy," notes one RV camper. RV Resort Village in nearby Pequot Lakes provides big-rig friendly sites with full hookups from April through October, featuring concrete pads that accommodate larger motorhomes and fifth wheels. Fiddlestix RV and Golf Resort maintains 143 sites with 30/50 amp service on gravel pads.

Seasonal availability varies significantly across the region's RV campgrounds. Most parks operate from May through October, with limited winter camping options. Cell service is generally strong throughout the area, with Verizon users reporting 3-4 bars of LTE at most locations. Dump stations are not universal - Crosby Memorial City Park offers one, while Minnesota National RV Park does not. One traveler mentioned needing "about 35 feet of electric and water hose" at Fiddlestix due to utility placement at the rear of sites. Pet policies are consistent across most parks, with pets allowed but sometimes incurring additional fees. Minnesota National RV Park charges $10 daily per dog. Leveling blocks are recommended for many parks in the region as sites can be uneven, particularly at lakeside locations.

    Pierz Park

    Too many kids driving golf carts.

    First the negatives. No internet, medium phone signal. The campsites are too small and too crowded. The adults let their young kids drive their cold carts and atvs back and forth from the campground to the beach all day long. I counted one particular one make 34 trips in less than 6 hours. I used to golf and I occasionally used a cart but usually I walked. Kids and young parents are way too lazy now, because it's a small campground and short walk to the beach from the farthest site. I think they do it for 2 reasons, they are bored, and they can. There is only one road in and out so there is constant traffic, and the road is gravel so prepare to eat dust. The sites aren't paved or even gravel, you park on the grass. Now for the positives. Some sites have 50 amp, most just 30 amp or less. Water hookups at most. No full hookups or dump site. There is a beach and swim area on Skunk Creek. A playground by the bathroom and showers. That building is clean, showers are free. Lots of shade from all the trees. Mosquitoes are few, flies plentiful. It is a quiet park after 10pm, but although they say closed after 8pm there was traffic all night long. Ask for a site in the back to avoid headlights shining on you all night long. Rates are $40/night for the pull through site we had w50 amp service. It has a few seasonal sites, all located at the rear. There is a golf course right next door across the creek. That is where the office is located. The town is small, only a gas station and small grocery store, so bring what you need. A Subway and nice drive-in are close by. Oh, the water is in me/my dogs opinion not for drinking. I wouldn't suggest weekends here unless you're into hearing every conversation your neighbors have or want to sleep in. Maybe the week days are better? They do allow leashed pets.

    Father Hennepin State Park Campground

    Great getaway from the city

    Right on Lake Mille Lacs, one of Minnesota’s largest. Walking distance from the bakery and bar! Newer, updated facilities. Boat access. Lake side sites (if you book early enough). You can hit Mille Lacs State Park if you want to knock them both out on one trip! This park seems to attract a lot of long term campers, as I’m sure it’s pretty reasonable to stay at the lake all summer. We went mid-July I think and the trees were literally raining caterpillars… it was tough to want to hang out in our tree canopy-covered site. Sooo.. we ventured outside of the park more at this one.

    There was a festival going on in a town west of here that had a couple rides and a really fun patio bar. If you do decide to venture out at night, ask the bartender for the limo driver’s number; he’s the city’s “uber”!

    Cross Lake Recreation Area

    Crowded but clean. Gets quiet after 10 PM.

    Could just be the current political budget restraints but I tent camped Gull Lake RA for four nights never saw a Ranger. Here there is a security gate you have to go through before you enter and multiple Rangers. Could be that were so close to town here. highway traffic noise even at furthest site. I will ask about dispersed camping and try to report back. They have shower facilities here just like a gull lake. Yes that means noisy Motorhomes, and travel trailers at all sites.

    Gull and Love Lake Campground

    Upscale marina living for RVers

    I am not an RV camper, but thought I would visit as I was passing by and this campground had no reviews yet. For RV camping, this spot is very nice, very upscale for an RV park, and rental of a camp site not only comes with full electric water and sewage hookups but also a slip at the marina. The grounds are immaculate, and the setting on Gull Lake and near Love Lake is very pretty and will appeal to fishermen and boaters fir sure. The only downside is that there is no daily or weekly rental possibility, only monthly or seasonal. The monthly rate is 2500$ for one month, but the seasonal rate for five months (May to October) is 5500$ inclusive. If you hsve you own RV and boat and want to park them for the summer season and go back and forth between home and “The Lake”, this seems like a reasonable option as the price is right and the campground is nice. I am giving it a 4 star rating rather than 5 because of the lack of short term camping options, and also it doesnt seem family friendly in terms of amenities like playgrounds, but I think adults would really enjoy it!

    Mille Lacs Kathio Petaga Campground — Mille Lacs Kathio State Park

    Winter camping- very quiet with the electric hookups

    This is one campground in Minnesota that offers a handful of electric hookups for winter camping. The beauty of this campground, is that while the campsites available are in a row, there's plenty of space between sites and some of them are even pulled through. Making it easy for RVs to pull in and hook up.

    The vault toilet is not easy to find from where the electric openings are in the winter. While these spaces are right next door to a shower house with toilets, this is closed in the winter. The vault toilet is several rows over and down, making it hard to find if you don't already know where it is. But it was clean, and it was available.

    The campfire rings seemed clean, and each had a picnic table as well. We loved the pull-through site because then we were a little more protected from the road, although it's not busy this time of year at all. So it was very quiet except for our neighbors, and they didn't make much noise at all.

    There are trails nearby that are easily accessible on foot from the campground, and you can make loops that come back to the campground as well.

    There are two campgrounds at this park, but this is the one that has availability in the winter time. Ironically, they also have a couple of walk-in spots that are also open this time of year. If you're willing to brave the temps without an electric hookup. Not hard to find, not hard to access, but no electric hookups at these sites.

    Minnesota National RV Park

    Excellent stay if you’re visiting Big Sandy or Minnewawa area - or if you love golf

    This is a relatively new (2016?) campground built right next to the Minnesota National Golf Course clubhouse, and in the corner surrounded by Savannah holes 8 and 9. It’s literally inside the golf course.

    Gravel pads, some a bit out of level. All 50 amp water and sewer. Some great options in here for group camping as there are several loops you could be placed in the have sites near one another.

    Our site (33) was tucked way back in the woods, had a nice bit of privacy.

    No bath house.

    The golf course is amazing - one of the nicer public courses in the state. I can see a lot of folks choosing this RV park as a golf vacation - we were here because we were spending two weeks with family on Big Sandy Lake, just ten minutes away.

    Don’t miss breakfast at the Palisade Cafe and dinner/beers at the Craft House - both are legit culinary experiences, not Sysco reheaters.

    With 50+ sites, park was full for the three days around July 4, but was under 50% the rest of the time. An under appreciated gem.

    Crow Wing State Park Campground

    Nice smaller State Park

    Crow Wing State Park is a good choice if you are looking for something close to the Twin Cities metro area in Minnesota. with this park being just under two hours away from the Twin Cities metro area it’s an easy choice for a nice weekend getaway. If you’re looking to stay for a long extended time it’s also a good choice as it offers electric and water. The electric sites are pretty open and close together so if you like to be secluded and not see other campers from your campsite I wouldn’t use this park. The electric sites are really on top of each other and don't feel like you are camping to me. The non-electric sites are pretty nice and secluded from each other which would make this park a park I would bring my tent to instead of my travel trailer. There is also a group camp That is separate from the main camping area.

    The park office offers ice and firewood for sale. Firewood is 6$ a bundle at the park office. The only firewood you can use is the approved firewood in the local area or scrap lumber. See the Minnesota Firewood law.  Canoe rentals are offered at the park office for $15 for a half-day and $25 for a full day. There is also a water fill station and a dump station for your travel trailer or RV. This is a good park for hiking and exploring. 

    If you wanna stay close to the Twin Cities metro area this is a good park for you!

    Ronald Cloutier - Cross Lake

    Crosslake MN COE campground

    This is a spacious campground with 123 sites, most with electricity, all wooded. The Lake is actually part of a string of lakes friendly to high speed motor boats as well as canoeing/kayaking. Like all other COE campgrounds, it honors campground passes, cutting the fees by half. A COE ranger patrols regularly. It of definitely dog friendly without breed or size restrictions. It is just north of Brainard, MN so civilization is nearby but the turn of Crosslake has All the amenities of city life. As with many other campgrounds, it's not busy Sunday-Thursday but gets much busier on weekend days. I would highly recommend this campground.

    Rock Lake

    Hidden gem for rustic camping!

    This campground is really a hidden gem that i never knew about even though it is within an hour drive of my home. It is a rustic state forest campground with great campsites located in a gorgeous oak-birch-pine forest and right on a pretty lake. Although the campsites are karge enough to accomodate RVs, there are no hookups and no amenities like a bath house, so the campground favors tent campers. Many of the sites are right on the lake, including oarking space, tent pad, fire ring and picnic table, and each of these have a small lake access for swimming or launching a canoe or kayak. There is also a day use area with beach and boat launch, plus a nice nature trail. You can enjoy a quiet family weekend in the deep woods here, but still pop into the town of Pillager which is only 10 miles away. Well kept, quiet and peaceful

Guide to Crosby

Crosby and the surrounding area features numerous RV campgrounds catering to outdoor enthusiasts, especially mountain bikers visiting Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area. The region ranges from small city-operated campgrounds to larger golf resorts with full hookups. Most campgrounds operate seasonally between April and October, with winter camping limited to ice fishing accommodations on nearby lakes.

What to do

Mountain biking on dedicated trails: Cuyuna City Campground offers direct trail access for mountain bikers. "Pump track is great to warm up on. Trail connector with easy access to Bobsled is right there and you can ride to Cruser's Kettle," notes a camper at Cuyuna City Campground.

Golfing at resort courses: Several campgrounds integrate golf courses. "The golf course is amazing - one of the nicer public courses in the state. I can see a lot of folks choosing this RV park as a golf vacation," writes a visitor at Minnesota National RV Park.

Paul Bunyan Trail excursions: The paved bike trail runs near multiple campgrounds. "Rode our bikes on the Paul Bunyan Trail to Nisswa and had some ice cream at The Chocolate Ox. Did a little shopping and got a beer at the brewery," shares a camper at Wildwedge Golf and RV Park.

Winter ice fishing: Unlike most seasonal campgrounds, some locations cater to winter sports. "I'm talking winter camping on the lake on the Ice in an 'Ice castle' catching walleye. Had a great time fishing in the camper, well plowed roads, nice showers," reports a winter visitor at Hidden Bay RV Resort.

What campers like

Spacious, wooded sites: Many RV parks near Crosby feature large, private campsites. "Sites are huge, very dog friendly, quiet, ice and firewood on site, cute little lake with gorgeous sunsets," remarks a camper at Birch Bay RV Resort.

Clean facilities: Campground cleanliness receives frequent praise. "Very nice RV resort with clean campground, clean bathrooms & showers. Full hookups, good resort wifi and good Verizon," notes a reviewer at Birch Bay RV Resort.

Water recreation amenities: Lakes and water activities draw many visitors. "Huge kiddy play area on water, free kayak and paddle board use," mentions a Birch Bay camper.

ATV trail access: Some campgrounds connect directly to ATV trail systems. "Paved walking and biking trails and hundreds of miles of ATV trails connected right to the rv park," writes a visitor at Trails Inn Quadna Mountain Campground.

What you should know

Visitor policies vary: Some campgrounds have strict rules about guests. "We give this resort 5 stars because, despite it not being visitor friendly, they are up front in their policies about visitors and the place is great in all other respects," cautions a Birch Bay camper.

Seasonal occupancy dominates: Many parks primarily serve seasonal campers. "The original/older sites 4-12 and the 30-40 area are currently being used for short-termers," explains a camper at Fiddlestix RV and Golf Resort.

Utility placement considerations: Hook-up locations vary by campground. "The utilities are in the back of site in this CG, so you may need 20+ feet of electric, sewer, or water cord/hose depending on your rig's configuration," advises a Minnesota National visitor.

Off-season limitations: Most campgrounds in the Crosby area close between late October and early May. Wildwedge Golf and RV Park operates from "May 1 to October 1," while RV Resort Village runs from "April 1 to October 31."

Tips for camping with families

Free water recreation equipment: Some resorts provide complimentary equipment. "Free kayak and paddle board use, nice little onsite store," mentions a Birch Bay visitor about family-friendly amenities.

Mini-golf opportunities: Multiple campgrounds offer additional activities. "The kids loved the mini golf and maze and we all loved the cute little golf course that was very well maintained," shares a Wildwedge Golf and RV Park camper.

Explore nearby town activities: Many small towns have family attractions. "Pine River itself is small but has a nice park on Pine River with a small beach area and playground. There are also docks there for fishing," recommends a visitor to Riverview RV Park And Campground.

Check seasonal amenity availability: Pools and water features may not be available early or late in the season. "The pool wasn't ready yet but it is very large," notes a camper at Hardy's Lake in the Woods RV Resort regarding a Memorial Day weekend stay.

Tips from RVers

Utility hose length planning: Many RV parks have utilities at the rear of sites. "Had to get a longer water hose and extension for sewer line... NOT IDEAL," cautions an RV Resort Village visitor.

Bring leveling equipment: Some campgrounds have uneven sites. "The sewer grade is a bit up hill," notes a Minnesota National RV Park visitor.

Check site design compatibility: Not all sites accommodate all RV types. "Biggest negative is that the utility hookups are designed for a Class A Motorhome so for my trailer, they were on the wrong side," advises an RV Resort Village camper.

Reserve early for peak season: Holiday weekends fill up quickly at RV parks near Crosby. "With the pool, new putt-putt golf, and other family activities, the CG was full of people," reports a Labor Day visitor to Fiddlestix RV and Golf Resort.
