    Land of Memories Campground

    Large park and campground with much to do!

    The park here has a Frisbee golf course as well as soccer fields and a trail system that wraps the campground and park. In the campground, the spots are plentiful, especially if you winter camp like I do. There are accommodations for any size camper, including pull through locations for big rigs. This campground offers electric and non electric sites. The spots with the most privacy are here by the river. Other spots inside the park are more exposed. If you kayak, there's also a boat ramp! I'd recommend that anyone looking to visit minneopa come here if you have a large rig. The logistics are far easier here, and you're still close to the bison.

    Fish Lake Acres Campground

    Quiet, Lake Views

    This campground is great especially when compared with state park camping. Full hookups available, quite a few pull through lots and close to the twin cities! No wifi, so make sure you've got decent cell service and hotspot if you need internet/wifi. Verizon gets ok coverage here, T-Mobile does too. Showers/bathhouses are clean and the hot water runs forever and not coin operated or push button like some others I've been to! Bonus! Good toilet paper in the bathrooms not the cheap stuff. The lake is literally out your door and they do have a small swimming beach and boat launch. MN Horse and Hunt club is about a mile or so up a trail access that is Almosy directly across from the camp entrance. There is an ATM there along with a bar and restaurant. Be prepared to hear gunshots regularly but it's not really bothersome unless you aren't prepared for it. The trail to the club is safe to walk though. The campground ONLY accepts cash so be sure to hit the ATM before you get here. They also charge $2 extra per dog if you have them. Nightly rate for the full hookup site I had was $32 with the dog. They charge .50 c per log for firewood. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. The staff are really nice and laid back. It's a really nice little campground!

    Lebanon Hills Regional Park

    Friendly staff & quiet

    Great location for easy access to mountain bike trails. Friendly staff. Clean facilities. Nice trail within the campground. Some sites are more shaded than others in the east loop so look at photos if you want shade. Sites that back up to the green space are very sunny. 87 is a great site! Plenty of space for a trailer or tent with a private “nook” for the fire pit.

    Fish Lake Acres Campground

    Cozy Lakeside Sitr

    Great pricing and friendly staff. Nice beach. A few spots are pull through which is nice for larger RVs and travel trailers.

    Masonic West River Park

    Riverfront!!

    Amazing campsite! Sites are large and grassy! We had a lakeview site right off the paved walking/biking trail with room for a large tent and the pop-up camper. Fire ring and picnic table provided. A man drives through the campsite close to dusk to sell firewood as there is no traditional office. Bathrooms and showers are located near the dump station and dumpster. Be on the lookout for the code for the doors during your reservation process. We had missed it and had to ask a neighbor if they knew the codes so we could shower.

    Good Campground but Close Sites

    Sites are close to each other, but easy access, clean grounds and facilities, friendly staff, and a K9 fenced area for a pet friendly campground.

    River View Campground

    Our LGBT family wouldn't stay here again

    First of all, the good - we appreciated the campground being able to accommodate our last-minute reservation. The bathrooms and showers were small but nice, and my kids liked the playground. Full hookups. They also have a camp store that seemed well-stocked, and an activity room for weekly Bingo, etc.

    The bad - while the long term sites were pretty, level, and relatively private, our site was definitely none of those. Very unlevel gravel and mud and very close to our neighbors. We were excited for the laundry room but they had to shut it down because of a leak, and the clothes we did wash didn't seem to come out clean. Finally, our LGBTQ family didn't feel very comfortable because of the amount of conservative paraphernalia displayed by both the owners/staff and some of the other visitors.

    Overall, our family wouldn't stay here again.

    Dakotah Meadows RV Park

    Nice modern campground

    Many pull through sites available - most of which you pull through to face another site - great if you are camping with friends and want to share the area. Full hook up sites at a reasonable rate. Secure shower/bathhouses and a large play park for kids. There is an RV wash station and fuel pumps on-site. Shuttle bus comes through the camp if you want to go to the casino and play- it’s also within walking distance.

    Lebanon Hills Regional Park

    Spacious!!

    My family and I took our second trip with our travel trailer to Lebanon Hills Campground locates here in the Apple Valley. It is located on the fringe of a nature reserve with miles of hiking and biking trails. We stayed in the west loop and all the sites are full hook up back in spots. Each site has well groomed grass and plenty of space between campers. Site also came with a XL picnic table and fire ring w/grill grate. The East Loop provides campers with more rustic accommodations. Also in the East Loop is a nice play ground and trails. In between the different loops is a nice pond with groomed trails that go all the way around. About a half mile from the campground is Skills Park which contains over 10 miles of mountain bike trails! One down side is that if you want to swim you have to travel about 4 miles to Lebanon Hills Visitor Center where there is a beach. They do rent paddles boards and kayaks there. All in all, beautiful place and a great trip!!


Guide to Henderson

Camping options near Henderson, Minnesota extend beyond traditional RV parks with sites throughout Sibley and adjacent counties. The area sits within Minnesota's prairie and hardwood transition zone, typically 750-800 feet above sea level. Summer temperatures average 70-85°F with higher humidity, making swimming opportunities valuable during peak camping season from May through September.

What to do

Water recreation at Cleary Lake Regional Park: The lake is ideal for kayaking with multiple access points. "Cleary Lake is a good size and a kayakers delight! The park also has a golf course and is very well kept!" reports Lili R. at Cleary Lake Regional Park.

Hiking trails at High Island Creek Park: Multiple trails follow ravines down to the water. "Beautiful trails leading you down the revenue to a gentle flowing creek," notes Alison O. Hikers can access several miles of trail networks. "I hiked in about 1/2 a mile and camped in the trees but they also have some clearings closer to the entrance, with grills, where you could easily set up," explains Trenton V.

Casino entertainment near Prior Lake: "Casino operates a round trip Shuttle that picks you up and drops you at your site," notes James and Susan K. Some campers enjoy the convenience without visiting the gaming floor. "Sometimes we don't even go there and just enjoy the area," adds Lisa D.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Bathroom quality varies significantly between campgrounds but receives frequent positive mentions. "Amazing bathroom/Showers. Quiet, lots of flies, good spot overall," reports Truly W. about Baker Campground. Similarly, at Peaceful Valley Campground, "Clean bathrooms; my wife actually wanted to take a shower in them," notes Justin J.

Site spacing and privacy: Campers appreciate locations with adequate spacing between sites. "Lots of good trees and space between campgrounds which isn't always the case at the regional parks," notes Scott M. This contrasts with more crowded options like Town & Country Campground where some campers report feeling "squeezed in like sardines. Very tight quarters on roads and sites," according to Claire M.

Accessibility to Minneapolis: Many campgrounds serve as convenient bases for Twin Cities visits. "Highly recommended for a quick weekend stay or a good place to spend an extended holiday weekend," notes Bryan S. Location matters for urban explorers. "Very convenient for visiting Minneapolis—25/30 minutes from airport/Mall of America," reports Beth B. at Dakotah Meadows RV Park.

What you should know

Reservations essential for summer: Most established campgrounds fill quickly, especially those with hookups. "We lucked out and were able to stay 2 nights without reservations....only had to move because they were fully booked for the 4th," reports Beth B. Many campgrounds implement no-show policies. "Bad thing is they don't make you pay to make a reservation so people reserve a spot and don't show up," notes Lisa D.

Free camping options exist: High Island Creek Park offers no-cost alternatives. "Nice clean campground very well maintained and free. Near Henderson, MN which is one of a kind small town well worth the visit for all," reports Mike G. at High Island Creek Park. These sites lack hookups but provide basic amenities.

Cell service varies: Coverage depends on your location and carrier. "Wifi is not great, less than 1MB download speeds from our site, and our Verizon service was pretty poor in our spot, max 2 bars," reports Chris F. Some campgrounds offer free WiFi to compensate for weak cellular signals.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Several campgrounds feature dedicated play areas. "The kids really enjoyed the playground. The owners were very accommodating with our changing situation during the weekend we stayed," reports Justin J. at Peaceful Valley Campground.

Swimming options: Beach access varies by location. "There are 2 swimming beaches: 1 for the campground and one for all of the day visitors," notes Jennifer H. Some campgrounds include pool access. "Inground, heated swimming pool; mini golf; pickleball; tennis; arcade room attached to the office," reports Rachel H. about Cokato Lake RV Resort.

Noise considerations: Campgrounds near highways or casinos may experience noise issues. "We would probably chose a site further from one of the main roads into Mystic Lake Casino. We heard a lot of traffic coming and going well into the wee hours of the night," cautions Michelle A.

Tips from RVers

Site surface quality: RV site foundations vary significantly across the region. "Sites have crushed asphalt base and are decently level. Grounds are well maintained," notes Tonya B. about Rice County McCullough Park. Some parks invest in higher-quality pads. "Cement parking pads with full hookups. The grass around the lots is very green, lush and well maintained," reports Jim M.

RV size considerations: Most parks accommodate larger rigs, but site lengths vary. "Sites are 60+ feet, concrete and level. Each site has their own fire pit," reports James and Susan K. Some parks offer specialized parking configurations. "Sites are two pull-thru's to each site. Your door is opposite of your site mate and you each have your own power pedestal w/water," explains the same reviewer.

Extended stay facilities: For longer visits, look for parks with additional amenities. "There is a RV wash bay available for a fee and the campground even has gasoline available 24 hours a day using a credit card," notes Jim M. Town & Country Campground in Savage maintains year-round operations for extended stay campers.
