    Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Park Campground

    A really excellent stop over, although I didn't need a whole hookup!

    I was traveling Eastward through the upper Midwest and had a really hard time in this area finding a place to camp. I finally came across this place. There was some suggestion that there was some drive in sites that were not reservable, that is. They were first come first serve. But I was unaware or unable to find those. I ended up paying a fair amount of money for a full hookup site. The bathrooms were extremely modern and clean.

    There were some really nice wide trails around the lake. I think those were basically designed for cross-country skiing in the winter. But they made a perfect opportunity for me to let the dog run off. Leash. Probably was not within the rules, but it was very quiet there and the dog didn't bother anybody with her running.

    Older koa

    We stayed at this koa because it was our only way to watch softball tournament. We stayed 5 days and it was fairly nice. People that were working were very helpful and nice. Lost power a couple hours twice because of branches falling g from trees.

    Favorite spot

    This is just the best campground that is close to Minneapolis! Peaceful, quiet, with spacious sites that are situated in a staggered way, so you never feel like you’re on top of each other. The lake was a bit reedy and silty but overall a fantastic and easy option.

    Unlevel sites, broken dump station

    About the only nice thing about this place is the lady who answered the phone, Valerie.

    She was extremely nice other than that it was gravel. Roads that were poorly maintained trucks were parked sticking out into the road making it difficult to get around. The site was very unlevel and the water Spicket didn’t really work very well.. we paid for two nights and bought a KOA review or rewards program to do it… We refused to stay the second night when we called to see if we could get our money back the gentleman who checked us in as a ground tender was rude and choppy he wasn’t very friendly when he brought us into the place.

    The place was packed like sardines… Very difficult to negotiate at night.

    Overall, the worst campground we’ve stayed in in the two RV trips we’ve taken from Florida to Minnesota. There are so many beautiful state parks don’t bother with this KOA not even for a one nighter.

    We were stuck on a back loop. There were a lot of mosquitoes bugs and mud… It just wasn’t a nice experience.

    Bunker Hills Regional Park

    Same day booking

    Went early in the season in the afternoon and had no problems getting a good spot with electric hookups. Better for someone with an RV, and more seemingly a weekend spot for the family.

    Lake Maria State Park

    Overall good

    If you're looking for a beginner backpack spot, with privacy and not too far from the cities, then this will fit your bill. You can either do a short-hike from the parking lot via the road to B5 or a 1 mile easy hike via the trail. The backpacking sites are very spread out, we could barely tell anyone else was at the park with us ever. 

    B5 was beautiful, already lots of mosquitos for May (and appeared poison oak/ivy). I'm not sure what this park does differently than most other parks, but our privy was LOADED with spiders. I get it, it's the outdoors. But still, I've used many in-ground toilets and never had dozens of spiders covering the toilet seat/front. 

    Another reason we chose this park was for birding. The park ranger at check-in was not helpful and then said he's never heard of MN State Parks free birding kits to borrow, though it's clearly listed on several spots on their website. Bummer, but we still enjoyed our time.

    Baker Park Reserve

    Open Spacious RV Campsites

    Baker is our favorite campground when visiting family in the Twin Cities.  The grounds are absoutely gorgeous, with huge hardwoods that provide lots of shaded sites.  RV pads are gravel.  Shower facilities are very nice.  We enjoy walking the grounds down to the lake.

    Lake Independence has occasional bouts of bacteria that can result in beach closings.  So if swimming is an important part of your camping getaway, be sure to check whether the beach is open.  

    I can also say the site D03 is densely shaded, which is great for spreading out on hot summer days, but there is little grass near the pad which can result in muddy conditions after a deluge.

    Great park for a variety of campers

    The "loops" aren't straight so it gives a variety of sizes in the sites. Some loops are electric and some aren't. No water or sewer at any sites. Water and dump station located at the office. Office staff are very helpful. Beautiful park to walk around. Couldn't do anything at the lake due to bacteria in the lake.

    Visited from Red Deer, Highly Impressed

    Being from Alberta my campground standards are high but I also prefer a neat and simple campsite. When Rice Creek Campground opens up again in April I'd highly recommend going there if all you want is a simple camping experience to get away from the city grind. I had my tent, fire and books to read and was the happiest camper in the world. I went there no joke because my driver from tow truck red deer recommended it and I stopped while in the area. So glad I did!

    Best "Smaller" (225 sites) Campground / RV Resort in Minnesota

    Impressed with the distance to/from the metro (less than an hour on Highway 12 heading west to Cokato). Inground, heated swimming pool; mini golf; pickleball; tennis; arcade room attached to the office.  Ice cream shop has 8 flavors of hand-dipped yum! Freezer pizzas can be cooked at the store or bring one home for later. All the incidentals and condiments you might need.  Plenty of fun clothing for sale to bring home and make memories with.  And memories:  here's the place to start your family fun and lifetime memories! Head on out to the Cokato Lake Experience!

    Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park

    A very nice park. County Parks are very well managed in Minnesota

    We stayed here a week. I have been here before.  It's a great campground if you can get in. We came late in the season and got the one spot open for a week.   BTW Camping Worlds huge store is just north on 35E.  Kelly's Bar nearby has a great fish fry on Friday.  

    The campground is neat and well managed. Aside from that no issues except being so close to a large city (Urban campgrounds are not for wilderness campers) and county airport (noise) occasionally. Close to the Twin Cities it is.  Access to anywhere is easy. The Three rivers campgrounds triangulate the northern suburbs. Baker park, Bunker Hills Park, and Rice Creek are all close to the major parts of town.

    Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park

    Great spot right outside the twin cities

    Great campground with all the amenities one might need, including showers, nice bathrooms, a park, a beach, trails. Right next to lakes and a nature preserve. Close enough to town in case you forget some things like we did. A county parking pass is required, they don't like people parking on the grass, and they have staff making rounds to enforce the shortest list of rules I've seen in the last couple of years. My only complaint is that the location of the porta-potties didn't match what the maps showed, so my seemingly perfect plan to be somewhat far from them failed and I ended up right next to one; it was clean and didn't smell, but we heard the door close every time. They have the campsites spaced out better than most other places I've camped and have trees and brush between the sites whenever possible. We tent camped and plan to bring our travel trailer next year. Definitely plan to stay here at least once a season.

    It’s right on the edge of a holiday and a journey

    We stayed a couple nights here on our last major stop, and it was ok. I’ll start with the positives. The people are very nice, and work hard. It’s close to downtown Minneapolis. They have events planned for kids. It has a pool that stays open late, and it’s got some playgrounds. Now, the cons….it’s off the road behind a construction company. It’s clientele was pretty rough on our trip. One of the playgrounds was closed. Small sites and it’s packed in here.

    Great campsites, bad firewood

    Many campsites are fantastic with good spacing and shade. Access to lake is great. Firewood at $7 a bundle doesn't burn, it just smokes. I asked for a refund. Buy firewood elsewhere.

    If you have children STAY AWAY

    We haven’t met a single person living full time at any site that hasn’t felt like family UNTIL TODAY. This is the face of a little boy who got screamed at by a grown man for riding a bike WE RENTED through a puddle. That’s right he SCREAMED at our five year old and took the bike away because - he’s the owner and he “can talk and act however he wants!” There is so much more to this I’m not even ready to get into but moments before this we got hit with a TERRIBLE storm with nickel to quarter size hail, the hail ended up busting out our roof vent covers and likely will need roof repairs. We came outside to asses damages and instead of the park owner checking on us he belligerently screamed at my children( he seemed drunk to me but that’s just my opinion) This is a screen shot during a recording my husband took for our protection because of how the man was acting. We were only there for a short time and quickly left after this. I didn’t not feel safe and would never stay here!

    Always an amazing visit

    Hands down my favorite spot to get away from the hectic week of work, parenting duties, and just all together adulting. It is so peaceful and everyone is so respectful, helpful and kind always every time we stay, which is any chance we get. They have the boat, pontoon and other water toy rentals and the gas/store on the premises that accommodates most needs. The deal sealer for me though is the bathroom/ showers are clean and they have cleaners go in and clean 3 times a day. YES COODOS FOR THAT!!! All around amazing, they never disappoint!

    Amazing stay

    We had a rough start to camping here by breaking down 50 feet outside of the grounds. The staff helped us so much with figuring out what was wrong and chatting us up and welcoming us once it was fixed. It is a 14/30 campground, has an immense amount of space for RVs of any size, lots of clean restrooms and showers, trash and water fill up stations. It’s the bees knees

    Nice quiet campground just outside of the city

    Nice campground with lots of trails, a beach, and many playgrounds. Only recommendation is to get the firewood from down the road and not at the campground.

    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.

    100% Gem

    Absolutely beautiful campground with mature trees. Cedars , white oaks, hickory’s and more. The birds are singing and so are the kids because this place has so much to do for them. Pool, pool table, soccer table,mini golf, swing set, clubhouse, 3 wheel bike racing, and water balloons wars. The bathrooms are clean along with the showers. If this place was close to home I’d be here every weekend. Absolute beautiful weather with a nice breeze no mosquitoes not something you get in Florida in July !!
