We stayed at Baker as a family for our first camping trip, and it was great. Fire pit with swivel grate for cooking, bathrooms, and plenty to explore.

Pardun’s Jack Pine Campground
This is for Pardun’s Tube Rental. Don't give this man your business!
If I could give this company negative stars I would. I would never recommend this company to even my worst enemy. This was our second experience with them. The first time took a long time but we knew it wasn’t their fault because the river was low and that’s out of their control. Our tubes were also good. The owner’s dad(Jerry?) picked us up and was so nice and sweet. We laughed at all our hiccups along the way.
This time around, it was just my friend and I and we were having a wonderful time for the first 2.5-3 hours. Then we realized we weren’t moving and the wind was blowing us upstream. We kept trying to go, waiting to see the landing. By the 5 hour mark we kept trying to call Pardun’s to mention that we were trying to come back and to let them know that we’d probably be later than expected and to see if they had any tips. Since the cell service is almost non existent, the calls would not go through. By that time, we didn’t know what to else to do but call 911. By the time we were able to get a hold of someone to ask for help, we were nearing 6 hours on the river. They called Pardun’s to let them know and the owner(Guy?) and his son were waiting to pick us up. As soon as they saw us, the snarky disrespectful remarks started and they began making fun of us. The owner was relentless. It was one rude remark after another. This was at about 9pm. When I started crying and asking him to stop talking to me, the a-hole dug in even more and had to get the last word in. It kept on until I screamed at him to shut the F up. I couldn’t take it anymore. He then stopped and started trying to kick us off the bus. I was sitting in the seat, sobbing while my friend was nicely asking him to just please go and please stop with the comments. He wouldn’t. Once we got back to Danbury, he stopped the bus and walked away. His son helped us get our stuff out and his wife eventually came out to make sure that we had our keys and let us know she had called the other people involved to let them know we were back. The son was initially being kind of a jerk when we got on the bus but he apologized to us soon after. His waste of a human father didn’t.
Please do not give this man your business. I have never been so humiliated and made to feel as awful as he made me feel. The blatant disrespect and language from the minute he saw was unbelievable. This man is the most awful human I have ever encountered. I sure hope he treats his wife and his mother with a little more compassion and empathy.

Top notch for a county park
I’m still a little miffed that this was a county campground—it’s better than some state (non-MN) campgrounds I’ve been to. Unfortunately I only had one quick night here, but it was a quiet, relaxing stay.
There is a dump station and playground, but I didn’t come across a bathhouse when walking the inner campground loop—it’s likely I just missed it. I had poor cell service with Verizon, but it was good enough to text although web browsing was a bit slow. Be aware there is also an additional $7/day vehicle fee required upon entry, which is not included in the price of your campsite. It can be paid at the visitors center and I believe there is a kiosk if you arrive after hours.
My only complaint was the 5 piles of very large dog excrement in my campsite, which says more about the previous campers, but it was prevalent enough that I found myself wishing the park staff had cleaned it up.

Old Logging Trail Campground — St. Croix State Park
Nice campground, but…
The campground is nice and has more woods/bushes and more privacy than the other two campgrounds in the park. The bathroom/showers were relatively clean and functioned well with nice hot showers. The electric sites functioned as expected but, they all seem very well used. Not much in the way of grass (bit of a drought at the time) and lots of little bits of garbage all over our campsite. All the electrical sites were occupied while we were there and a lot of the other sites near the modern bathroom were occupied. If you want privacy and a less worn campsite I would suggest booking a non-electrical site further away from modern bathroom. Oh, another plus water from spigots around campground was good.

Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Park Campground
The Bertram Park pass was an asshole
Me and my nephew came to camp at Bertram Park in Monticello and the boss came up to him and was being an ass telling him that he can’t ride his dirtbike that has the battery in it and he said it in a mean way and he said if he catches him again, he will kick us out of the park. I don’t recommend coming here. The bus could’ve been a lot nicer about it.

Lots for kids to do, big place
Was a nice place. I didn’t see any truly private sites. All are stacked on top of each others. I didn’t look around too much, it was just a quick overnight stop.

Guide to Lindstrom
Camping opportunities around Lindstrom, Minnesota sit within the St. Croix Valley at approximately 900 feet elevation. The area features a mix of oak savanna, prairie, and river ecosystems that create diverse camping environments. Winter temperatures often drop below 10°F, making winter camping in a heated yurt or cabin particularly appealing in this region.
What to do
Snowshoe along the St. Croix River: At Wild River State Park, winter visitors can explore snow-covered trails with views of the frozen river. "The park is huge and beautiful. We snowshoed and skied. I really enjoyed the snowshoe hike along the St Croix River and watched the full moon rise," notes a camper at Wild River State Park Campground.
Attend seasonal events: Winter candlelight skiing events provide a unique way to experience the parks after dark. "The candlelight ski was great and the routes were marked with different colored luminaries - for hiking and skiing," explains a Wild River visitor who stayed during February.
Try tubing on the Rum River: For summer activities, the Rum River offers sandy-bottomed water recreation. "The tubing is a plus... Key thing is the river is very clean and sandy bottom," shares a visitor at Country Camping Tent & RV Park on the Rum River.
What campers like
Private wooded sites: Many campgrounds in the area offer secluded spots among the trees. "The campground was very nice. The sites are private, couldn't see any neighbors as there are a lot of trees. The park rangers were very helpful and informative," reports a visitor at Wild River State Park.
Star gazing opportunities: Clear nights away from city lights provide excellent astronomical viewing. "The star gazing area was great! Intermittently had 1-2 bars of T-Mobile with LTE Internet. Wi-Fi is available at the park entrance," mentions a camper at Wild River State Park.
Variety of accommodation options: Beyond traditional camping, yurt camping near Lindstrom, Minnesota provides unique lodging experiences. "Campsite C1 offers basic yet essential facilities, including clean showers and well-maintained restrooms. The convenience of these amenities makes it easy to enjoy a longer stay without sacrificing comfort," writes a visitor to Baker Campground - Baker Park Reserve.
What you should know
Remote backpack sites require planning: Some riverside sites require significant hiking to access. "Backpack site Buck Hill is right on the river, beautiful view to the east. Circled by flowers, brush and trees. End of the path so zero foot traffic/passersby. No drinking water (we brought a bladder)," explains a Wild River camper.
Campground proximity to roads: Even secluded sites may experience some road noise. "Only downside to the site — you can hear cars on both sides (river and opposite side of forest). It was a 2.37 mile walk from the parking lot, mostly shaded," notes the same backpacker.
Bathroom facilities vary by location: While some campgrounds offer full facilities, others have more primitive options. "The primitive toilet smelled so bad it burned!! It needed to be emptied and wasn't the entire time we were there," cautions a visitor at Afton State Park Campground.
Tips for camping with families
Look for campgrounds with play amenities: Some properties offer extensive family activities. "This campground is great for everyone! It has a heated pool, splash pad area, BIG playground area, indoor game room, HUGE sites!" shares a visitor at Country Camping Tent & RV Park.
Consider camper cabins for family convenience: Yurt and cabin camping near Lindstrom provides more comfort for families with young children. "Perfect little cabin nestled in the southern half of the park! Screened in porch, heated with electricity, and two double bunk beds!" describes a visitor who stayed at a camper cabin in Afton State Park.
Check site location relative to bathrooms: Families with young children may want to prioritize bathroom proximity. "Only one shower house and we had to drive there... if we did come back we would definitely camp closer to the shower house," advises a family that camped at Wild River State Park.
Tips from RVers
Sites accommodate various RV sizes: Many campgrounds can handle larger rigs. "This place does have 30amp and 50amp hook ups and has pull through spots and sewer sites... Max trailer length that I've seen here is 70'. Anyone can fit in here!" explains an RVer at Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park.
Power reliability varies by campground: During peak season, electrical systems can be strained. "Had one issue with power dropping so we had to pull the surge protector off then it was fine. Also very hot and humid so everyone was running AC to the max," notes an RV camper at Country Camping.
Some campgrounds offer suburban convenience: Locations close to the Twin Cities provide urban amenities with natural settings. "We love to camp here. Access to lake independence. A lot of biking trails. Nice clean bathrooms. Nice park for kids just a small hike away," comments a camper about Baker Park Reserve.
