    Community and county campground

    This is an “event” campground clearly designed for the convenience of county fair attendees, as it is wedged conveniently right in between the Kittson County Fairgrounds and the Warren City Park. However, the location and quality of the campground would make it pretty good for family camping at non-Fair times as well. There are lots of sites with hookups for RVs, though they are pretty close together. Tenting sites would be less crowded. The campground is right adjacent to a Fair arena and stables, so easy to stay close to your horse or whatever at rodeo time or Fair time. But also smack dab next to the beautiful Warren City Park, which is treed and shady, and is complete with nice swimming pool, beautiful playgrounds, well kept picnic shelters, an enjoyable disk golf course, etc. The town is nice and has several options for shopping, supplies, meals and more. I wouldnt necessarily come here as a destination vacation, but if coming to town for an event it is a great place to stay

    Legion Park

    Very nice city owned RV park

    Legion Park is a city operated RV park in Greenbush, Minnesota. Very nice grounds with grass sites and many large oaks trees around each site. There only ten sites with water and 30 amp power. Sites are $15.00 per night. No sewer hook up but there is a free dump station on site.The grounds are well maintained. Minnesota Highway #11 runs right alongside the park so there is road noise durning the day but decreases when night falls. There is a very nice 9 hole golf course, a nine iron away from the RV slots. $12.00 to play nine holes. The RV park is first come, first served with no reservations. I recommend this campground for either an overnight or extended stay. We camped for 4 days in July.

    Inner city camping

    Was a bit curious about staying at a place that, on the map, was between two towns on a river. This campground was really nice. If you did not want to cook, there are 4 restaurants within 3 blocks of your campsite. And a Cabelas within 4 blocks, so if you forget anything, it’s close by. There are also other stores and restaurants within 5 miles of this campsite.

    The nearly full hookups were nice even though we were staying in a tent. The restrooms and showers were nice also.

    My only complaint was two things: if the wind is out of the south or southwest, the smell from the Crystal Sugar plant was miserable. And the trains with their horns blaring at 4am was annoying.

    Otherwise, I would stay there again, maybe with a camper or tent trailer to drown out the smell and excessive noise.

    Gilbert Olson Park

    Small park in front of a golf course just outside of a neighborhood.

    Park has electric and rv outlets throughout. It's located on a small river, in front of a golf course and behind a neighborhood. It has a pool open during summer, as well as showers and bathrooms. There is only one hook up for water. All and all it's a quaint little park if your rv camping. No tents allowed.

    Huot

    Camping is free, no reservations required. The unfortunate side effect, sometimes, is camping around irresponsible campers. Avoid major holidays. Besides that one issue the campsite allows tents and RV's, has latrines, and a boat/canoe launch on the Red Lake River. Each site has a picnic table, fire pit and trash barrel nearby. There are some sites with trees for hammockers.

    Classic Maple Lake experience

    An affordable way to enjoy Maple Lake near Mentor, Minnesota. The park is located on the West side of Maple Lake. A nice sandy swimming beach is nice for the kids for lakeside playing and swimming. Enjoy Maple Lake by boat as you utilize the boat launch and docks. Shower house. Well maintained grounds area.

    Small town campground near Hwy 2

    This is another typical small town campground located within a city park. The park has large shade trees, playground and picnic shelter, and shares ball fields with the adjacent school. It is clearly a nice outdoor community gathering space that also has an area where camping is allowed. The “campground” includes a horseshoe drive along which a few RV’s could park, but there are no hookups. There is an adjacent grassy tenting area that is very nice for tents, but be advised that the only “facilities” are a portapotty, albeit a clean and new one! This is of course would be a good place for a scout group overnight or a family reunion campout, but is not a vacation destination campground. If you are on a roadtrip travelling somewhere on Hwy 2 this would be a safe, clean, quiet spot to stop overnight, being convenient to highway access but far enough away not to hear road noise all night. The leafy setting is peaceful too, and you can get gas and supplies in town

    An RV camping experience, unless you're walking

    If you're looking for somewhere to park a big RV, this campground is modern, convenient, and nicely-equipped. There's no privacy or nature to be had, though. It's a grassy plain with straight rows of pull-throughs.

    However, there are a handful of walk-in sites off to the side that looked quite nice. That's definitely the way to go if you'd like to pitch a tent and have a little peace and quiet.

    Thief River Falls Tourist Park

    Quiet city RV park, trees, river, walking trails, everything close by.

    Nicest city-location RV park I've found in the past few years. Very "green" with mature trees, river and city park with walking trails. And, for a city park, especially nice/clean restrooms and showers.

    Both FHU and electric-only sites, 30-amp only. Potable water close by for electric-only sites and free dump location across the street. Weekly pump-out service, if desired.

    The electric-only sites on the park's east side are the nicest, most spacious, and most quiet because they back up to the forest and river (see photo). The FHU sites are more crowded.

    Small town, so everything is very convenient, literally within 3-4 minutes drive -- Walmart, Ace Hardware, Dairy Queen and fast food.

    I stayed at the Thief River Falls Tourist Park for several months while workamping at a walking-distance distribution warehouse. I will certainly stay at the park again if ever in the northwest part of Minnesota. I rated the park only 4-stars because of the electric-only sites and the tight FHU sites. For my style of camping -- mostly boondocking -- it is a 5-star location.

    City camping at ita best

    Not going to say anything that everybody else hasn't said in the reviews but I thought it was charming there's space between the campers and well there's no privacy there tends not to be in city campgrounds. Also it's right on the River trails so if you're a biker it's fun to do the loop that goes from both the North Dakota and the Minnesota side. The bike trails also connect you to the larger city and there's several other very charming parks and downtown neighborhoods or downtown houses to see. The walk-in sites near the river are quite nice I wouldn't come here if you wanted to be in a quiet state park but that's not the intent of the park and it's a good use of the green space. I'm fully self-contained so I didn't use the bathrooms I've heard their little bit older but there's water there's sewer there's electric sites their sites with electric only and then their sites for just camping also group sites.

    Highly Recommend

    We followed the instructions on the confirmation email across the bridge from Grand Forks to East Grand Forks, MN to check into the campground (CG). After going through the Avenue of Flags and near the Blue Moose Bar& Grill there’s RV parking in front of the little check-in cabin. Check-in was easy and as disabled veterans, we got a free Minnesota State Park Vehicle Pass. We then proceeded to the Sherlock CG, which is the camping area and site 106E. Site 106E is a long pull through with FHUs. Pulling in was super easy and utilities are placed in the middle of the long pad. The utilities worked great with water pressure at about 50 psi. We got two bars on Verizon. There are trees in and around the sites, but we were able to get a clear north shot for Starlink. The sites in our area were well spaced apart, which we really liked. We were on the back row where the cement walking/bike trail is located far enough away that you still have privacy. There are a lot of sites in this CG mostly pull throughs but there are back-ins. They are serious about the vehicle permits and you cannot just lay the pass on your dashboard. It must be adhered to the windshield. We went to the office to clear our ticket, which didn’t cost us anything as we were prompt to respond. The office also has t-shirts, which we purchased. There was not a formal dog park, but plenty of areas to walk. Red River is one of the better CGs we have stayed at in our 5 years of“Most Timing.”

    Karlstad Moose Park Campground

    Moose, pines, prairies, and northern lights

    This is a community campground in the city park of a small farming town near the Canadian border. The park is clearly a source of pride for the town, as it is well kept with landscaping, beautiful gardens, great playground, picnic areas, disk golf, and campground with full hookups. It is several hours drive from our home town, and it isnt a place we would go to as a camping destination in and of itself, but we often take long trips up into Canada and if it is late when we are heading home then this is a good stopping point to overnight before going the last few hours drive home. There is also a great Scandanavian restaurant down the block with lots of local ethnic heritage recipes that is a big draw for the region. We have neighbors at home who are originally from this town, and the campground is good for family reunions and other special events. The surrounding area has a lot of moose, so one special event is the annual Moose festival which is worth attending. If you are into birdwatching this is a stop on the Pine to Prairie Birding Trail, just as the nearby Twin Lakes WMA nature preserve is a seasonal stop for migratory birds and waterfowl. The town is also along the “Dancing Waters Scenic Byway” , a scenic road that runs roughly parallel to the Canadian border and is known for views of the northern lights and for great views of the Milky Way in case you are interested in Dark Skies and astronomy.

    Disadvantages: the campground is more oriented to RVs than tents; its on first-come first-served basis, which usually isnt a problem but could be on an event weekend; and, unfortunately, a train line with occasional trains does pass by the vicinity which creates some noise.

    The campground doesnt seem to have its own website, but here is some info: its $12 a night for campsites, bathrooms available, hookups abailable. Call (218) 436-2178 at the city office if you have more questions. See community website for more info on the town, including the park: http://www.lakesnwoods.com/Karlstad.htm

    Worth checking out; bring bug spray

    Nice little campgrounds. Our favorite part was checking out the Old Mill & settler’s cabin. Unfortunately, the bridge & swimming pond were closed. Electric & water hook ups on the inner loop. LOTS of mosquitos when we visited - bring bug spray & extra bug spray! Great little self serve firewood spot in the campsite. Kept clean. Trails were neat, but we spent minimal time on them due to the bugs. Playground is a swing set.

    This was a really cool park to go to, there’s a couple historical building for those interested in history and mills. Many trails to walk on and there’s a beach area for those who like to swim. Campsites are nicely spread out and everyone is friendly.

    Fab HC Trail in July!

    Park is on the smaller side compared to other state parks but was great with a very nice beach. Scenic prairie trail with tons of wild life to watch like butterflies, frogs, chipmunks, grasshoppers, and caterpillars. Wild Raspberries grow along the trail as well.

    A Park with Quiet Beauty

    While this park isn't a take your breath away experience, it is a solid park for hiking and solitude. We went in fall so we didn't get to enjoy but there was a beautiful sand beach to swim at that would be perfect in the summer time.

    Nice little park with more then expected

    The campground is tiny but there are showers, bathrooms and water readily available and I think it is a lightly used park. Good trails, nice exhibits and a surprising amount of wildlife. The river was very high and overall very wet summer so far but green.

    Small park and campground

    This park and campground are both pretty small but still a great stay! I was here early in the season...a lot of the trails had flooding. The hiking club trail was particularly bad as a good portion was at least ankle deep. My dog had to be carried so I wasn't able to get pictures of that 🤣

    This is a place for locals to come over and over

    The campground is really nice. It's full of regular repeat campers every week. Not really a place, I would come and stop for a night or two. There's a tiny lake and it's very pretty, but it's not really. A place designed for travelers or overnighters, you could do it. There was a price on the wall, but I think most of the people here are people that are here every weekend.

    Newfolden City Park Camping

    Community park campground at Newfolden

    This is a well kept campground in a beautiful town park in Newfolden. It would be a good option for a stop if travelling through the area, or wanting a smaller quieter option than the busy campground at nearby Lake Bronson. Much of the park facilities have been renovated in recent years, providing a beautiful picnic shelter, gardens and play areas. Bathrooms are provided. It would be a great place for a family reunion or other group gathering  for folks from the area. 

    Note: no fires are allowed currently, especially with the drought and fire danger throughout the region.

    Really nice----I enjoyed my stay:

    I stayed at the campground last fall and I found a really nice spot in the back where the trees also line the river.  Privacy was most important as I brought my 2 dogs with me.  I am now going to digress for a minute---how many pet owners know that when they cross the borders, they MUST have a dog passport with them with strict rules and regulations to follow?  I don't know about Canada but for sure if you cross the border into the States.

    Anyways, the camp host was a little annoyed that I showed up without a reservation,but when he saw me pull out the exact amount of the fee --------  It turned, out he was a nice guy!

    This year I spoke to a female camp host.  She said this was her first year, and I think some of the responsibilities  were overwhelming. We verbally made a reservations for 4 nights ..... the same spot as last year, with her and said I would email our discussion.  I emailed to the address that was shown on your web page and got a very curt reply telling me they didn't take care that.  I am disappointed as  I thought I did what I was supposed to do, so she probably won't even remember my call to her, or get my email.
