  Memorial Forest Park

  Green and Peaceful

  This is a beautiful quiet place to park it for a while. There is everything here from 43 ft Class A rigs to tents. We were the only ones for about four days when we got here and now the campground is completely full. It’s the middle of September, and you wouldn’t know you were practically in the middle of the city with all the foliage. The only downfall is you have to unhook to go dump every so often. Thankfully the dump site is inside the campground

  Bear Den Landing Canoe Camp

  Hidden spots a plenty along road

  The coordinates go to bear landing boat ramp culdesac. Nice views and about one good spot there, but may have someone pulling up to check out if the spot is taken or fish or use ramp. But it was a Fri night for me and just one car of two hunters came checking the spot for birds then left after a few minutes. Calm quiet crisp late Aug night. I honestly recommend take the first spot on right after turn in from main road its about 100 yards from main road. Its private there or theres other small dirt openings along road while going toward culdesac. Obviously if you go to far off bear landing rd you may hit on private property though so watch for signs.

  Vagabond Village Campground

  Clean, lots to do

  Lots of amenities, $60+ /night, guest fees. More open with less “trees and camping” feel so not for everyone but we liked it.

  Heiberg Park

  Clean, quiet, well maintained

  Heiberg Park near Twin Valley, Minnesota, is a gem for anyone seeking a peaceful and well-maintained spot to unwind. The park offers a few modern pieces of playground equipment, making it a great place for families with children. 

  One of its highlights is the serene stream that runs through the park, adding to its tranquil atmosphere. The park also has a picnic shelter that’s perfect for gatherings; it’s just a roofed area without walls, designed to provide shade for those enjoying a meal outdoors. The lawn is always kept in top shape, with the grass trimmed neatly, and you’ll rarely, if ever, find trash littering the ground, which speaks volumes about the care taken to maintain this space. 

  For those interested in fishing, the park borders the Wild Rice River, and while some have good luck with their catch, my experience hasn’t been as successful—but that hasn’t diminished my enjoyment of the setting. 

  The park is a quiet retreat, perfect for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle for a while. Whether you’re there for a picnic, some playtime with the kids, or just to enjoy the outdoors, Heiberg Park is a lovely choice.

  Camp Itasca

  Nice place to explore itasca state park

  The primitive campsites were very spaces but surrounded by poison ivy. An outhouse was nearby and water accesses well. Shows were clean and staff extremely friendly.

  Breeze Campgrounds

  Great place!

  We were scheduled for 5 nights, but extended to 8 because it was such a great spot. Don and his wife were very nice, and super helpful. We checked in late, and Don even helped us set up camp. Nice pool too. Showers and bathrooms are very clean. Laundry is nice. Highly recommend if you can snag a spot.

  Gulch Lake

  Not thrilled with this spot

  This campsite was a bit confusing for me to find and I still wonder if I’m at the right place. It’d be a peaceful night if it weren’t for the generator running all night across from me 😤 The mosquitoes are terrible, but that’s expected. I also thought it’d be on the water but it’s not… The road can also be pretty tough so be prepared if your pulling a trailer. I don’t think this was what I expected

  DeSoto Lake Backpacking Sites — Itasca State Park

  Great hike-in sites

  I recently camped at BP4, on Desoto Lake. They have maybe recently added bear boxes to these two sites (3&4), I didn't see that mentioned in any reviews or the MN park website. The trail was a bit swampy and horrible with mosquitoes but the camp sites themselves were not bad at all. A very nice spot, secluded and beautiful.

  Maplewood State Park Campground

  Spacious and buggy

  For established camping, this park is lovely and spots are spacious. The place is bumpin’ with people but trees provide some sense of privacy but large, louder group was definitely in our vicinity—we couldn’t enjoy the birdsongs as we’d have liked (over 150 species can be found here). Staying at Grass Lake, we might have been able to launch our paddleboards from our site, but would have been a little tricky. Energy was better spent on keeping a fire tended with onslaught of unavoidable mosquitoes. Also, park doesn’t permit burning of found woods in the pits…

  Beautiful Area

  This will be our 4th time up here. Great Place to stay at. Lake is beautiful and good fishing. Has a boat dock and parking. Site we were in is kinda smaller but we made it work. Facilities are clean and well taken care of.

  Deer Park Lake Backcountry Campsite — Itasca State Park

  Remote, beautiful, trumpeter swans, loons and beavers!

  I stayed for 2 nights.  it was beautiful and serene.  There is a bear box which was helpful to store food and supplies since I was Hammocking.  Great trees for Hammock.  I was also able to get internet so I was able to see a big storm coming.  The birds and insects were suddenly silent and the clouds came in fast.  I was able to check weather apps and go to the shelter a mile toward the parking lot and wait out the storm.

  Bear Paw Campground — Itasca State Park

  Beautiful LARGE State Park

  Many bike and walking/hiking trails. Well maintained park. Many Campsites are level and we just backed in and set up.

  Men’s bathroom is cleaned twice a day! Showers are clean and water is hot!

  Drinking water is good.

  Great trails to hike. Super nice Visitors Center with great interactive displays to learn about the park.

  View from the fire tower is spectacular! Beautiful wild flowers blooming along the trails. Took many pictures of loons on Mary’s lake.

  Paul Bunyan State Forest Dispersed

  Large drive in camping spot

  Very large easy to access camping area. Could easily get 4-5 campers in this one. It is a bit rocky and not extremely level but open and better for less bugs. ATV trail leads right off camping area.

  Hungry Man Forest Campground

  Lakeside Primitive Camping

  Camped at site #7 on Oct 10-11, 2023. Beautiful wooded state forest campground along Hungry Man Lakes. I was able to bank fish right from the campsite. Dirt surface campsite with table and metal fire ring. Trash containers along campground road. Two clean vault toilets with tp & air freshener. Two hand water pumps. Some sites are not level; #7 was level and pretty large. The campground can accomodate a truck camper and smaller; would not recommend larger rigs. A gravel road looped through the campground, offering a pleasant walk through the pine forest. Can not reserve a site here. Had to use the Yodel app to pay. Loved camping here.

  Swan Lake Resort & Campground

  Beautiful Quiet Campground

  Wonderful office staff, very kind and helpful. We intended to stay at the tent site but when we arrived we saw a lovely cabin overlooking the lake and decided to give ourselves a treat. It was very clean and comfortable. You can tell they work very hard to make the interior inviting and the kitchen well supplied with nice kitchenware. Highly recommend.

  Beers Hike-In Site

  Great backpacking site to take your family

  Take the Maplewood church road into the site. There is enough room to park 1 (maybe 2) vehicles. The walk is an easy walk. There is a nice fire pit and good area for fishing right at the site. Also there is a picnic table and a vault toilet. Surprisingly there was toilet paper there!

  Gulch Lake

  Views, water access

  Great views here! Stayed right next to the lake! Had easy access for kayaking and had a fun girls weekend! Site 7 was a short hike in from the parking lot and the site was large enough for multiple tents. We had a 3p and 2p backpacking tent. Picnic table and fire ring provided at the site. There is a self pay station and the rates were pretty cheap! we enjoyed a rainy weekend and were even able to rig up an awning with some dead branches in our site and extra rope we brought to help us keep dry. Great location for water access. we had an inflatable kayak, traditional kayak, and inflatable paddleboard between the three of us!

  Buffalo River State Park Campground

  Nice Little State Park

  This campground(CG) was easy to find. Because it was a Tuesday during the off-season, the check-in gate was not open, so we proceeded back to site 24, which was electric only(50/30/20 AMP) for our two-night stay. This small state park has many trees, but with the road being wide enough, the trees weren't in the way, and with no ditch this was an easy back-in. The sites here are also nicely spaced. A park ranger came by later and gave us our post and vehicle tags. There was highway and train noise. There are mature trees in the CG, but we were able to get enough north sky for Starlink. On Verizon, we got 3 bars. There is potable water at the dump station, which is at the park entrance. The shower/restroom facility was in good shape and clean. We enjoyed the trails, some interpretative, around this state park. As the nights were cooler, we opened our bedroom windows and noticed that trains ran almost continuously through the night. Overall, we had a good visit and would consider staying here again.

  Everything you need

  Good state park campground with everything you need. You can make your reservations online once you get there, and it’s nice because there’s no online transaction fee. But watch out that you pay the $7 daily state park entry fee as well as the camping fee, because otherwise you'll get a friendly visit from a ranger! 

   There are two loops, one slightly larger one with 50 and 30 amp power (no water or sewer) for $34, and one smaller one with no power for $24. We stayed in a power site because we couldn’t handle the heat anymore, otherwise the smaller one looked a little nicer and quieter and we would have stayed there. 

  Showers were nice and clean and free. Bathrooms were nice. 

  Very nice walking trails all around the campground and throughout the park as a whole. Trash dumpsters here as well as an assortment of segregated recycle bins. Good cell reception with Verizon and ATT. Firewood available at office for $8 and ice for $3. 

  Group camp is off from the main campground a ways, but connected via a little walking trail. There is a dump station and potable water fill at the campground exit. 

  No drinking allowed at any Minnesota State Park campground!

  Maplewood State Park Campground

  Amazing fall colors

  Second visit to the park but first time camping. Our spot was not private and a bit of a walk to the toilet but everyone was quiet and respectful. It is a very large park with miles of hiking trails and some pretty great mountain biking routes. It is a gem with the fall colors and was full the night we were there.
