  Lamb's Resort

  Nice campground on Lake Superior

  Really nice campground, our site was pretty small & very close to others so that was kind of annoying. But the bathrooms were nice & showers were really nice, overall enjoyable!

  Pine Acres Resort and Campground

  MUST STAY LOCATION

  Great primitive campsite to hit on the way to Voyaguers National Park. Everyone says stay at Woodenfrog or Ash because it’s close to the park but those parks are very primitive. If you do not have a portable shower or don’t mind using a “hole-on-the-ground” toilet then Pine Acres is a great primitive campsite. There are portable potty’s around the campsite, out houses but they also have full functioning bathrooms and showers. There is a train that goes through across the lake but it stops around 10pm so horns aren’t going off while you’re sleeping. Wonderful staff very friendly. My go-to-place when I come back up here.

  Cadotte Lake

  Very nice family campground

  Very nice campground for the family. Sort of has a mix of rustic and not rustic camping. Has a lovely beach just a few steps away from campsites. The fishing peer is more like a look out as it’s not in the water and even 20’ out from it it’s pretty shallow yet. Other than that it’s a nice camp ground.

  Sullivan Lake Campground

  Sullivan Lake is awesom

  Been a long time user of Sullivan lake campground. Love the rusticity of it and the quietness of it. So quit you can feel the grouse Drumming’s deep within your soul. Highly recommend.

  Wildhurst Lodge and Campground

  Used to be Much Nicer

  We stayed at Wildhurst about 20 years ago and had a great time, even got to see an mini-air show overhead with USAF F-16s out of Duluth doing maneuvers overhead. So, when the State Forest campgrounds were closed last spring for storm cleanup, we decided to take a cabin there. Not going back. The new owners are trying; I'll give them that. They're friendly, the little restaurant isn't bad, but the latrines (outhouses) really need to be rebuilt. I mean REALLY. Lime on the toilet seat. Early in the season and the biffys by our cabin were horrible smelling, (And I DO understand that they are open toilets. I was the ranger in a state forest campground for 26 years and had to clean weekly and pump out every year 12 of them.) and if the wind was wrong, we could smell it in our cabin. Cabins were smallish, but comparable to a state park camper cabin, they need updates, paint, roofing, and leveling the floors.

  Wildhurst has potential. I wish it was as good as it used to be,

  Birch Lake Campground & Backcountry Sites

  Great Place!

  We arrived late and set up in the dark, but were pleasantly surprised in the morning. Quiet except for the nature sounds - fronts, owls, loons at night. Hiking trails right out of the campsite.

  Superior National Forest Fall Lake Campground

  Perfect combo of modern and rustic

  This will now be one of our new favorite campgrounds. It’s the perfect mix of modern (lots of nicely spaced electric sites, well maintained shower/bathrooms, on-site store, canoe rentals and more) and rustic. (Wildlife, birds, a stones throw from the BWCA, and gorgeous sunsets.) Be mindful of your camping equipment and the size of the sites - it varies widely. There’s no dump station (closest is in Ely), but there’s a spigot to fill your RV’s water tank. AT&T service was good (2 bars, fast internet and streaming), T-Mobile not so good. (1 bar, slow internet and no streaming) Thanks to the great campground hosts for tips and info too!

  Sand Lake Rustic Campground

  Great rustic site

  Two small sites here right next to each other with a fire ring for each. Canoe launch with a small beach. Nice breeze off the lake. New clean pit toilet. No onsite trash. Overall pretty quiet, some fishing traffic, and the nearby cabin owners walk through a couple times a day. We used both sites for the six of us, two cars, a tent, and a teardrop camper.

  Bear Head Lake State Park

  Classic Northwoods camping/hiking

  Campsite was good size and relatively private in the non electric area. Beautiful park overall and love the proximity from Ely and Lake Vermillion. I did find bear scat near our site so be sure to practice proper bear safety precautions.

  Vermilion Trail Campground

  Smaller campground in northern MN

  This campground is great if you have smaller kids or group camping. Campgrounds are close together and a lot of the great campsitess are already taken by permanent campers. They do have nice bathrooms and showers. We do love the area and the beautiful lake the campground and some sites overlook.

  Lamb's Resort

  Well maintained campgrounds

  Nice clean bathroom and great showers that have an extra DRY SPACE and a chair to change into fresh dry clothes.

  Campground is well maintained, sites in the woods are spaced apart. Sites closer to Lake Superior are tight, some are VERY SHORT and tent sites only.

  Good electric power and water at the site we were at.

  Two nice beaches and a river at the campground. Very beautiful sunrise’s over the lake!

  Fall camping will be cool beside the lake so bring warm clothes.

  Close to MANY Minnesota State Parks and super good hiking trails.

  Site 8 with no electricity or water and is great site with super views of the lake.

  Lake Vermilion-Soudan Mine State Park

  Spacious Sites

  There were no problems getting to this state park. We pulled into the dump station just before entering the campground(CG) area to get fresh water. While we were there, a park ranger stopped to check us in, including processing us for a free annual MN state park pass for disabled veterans. We followed the site signage to electric(50/30/20 AMP) only site 110, which was an easy back-in. The site was long enough for our 40’ toy hauler to include putting our back patio down and parking our F-450. We especially liked how ample trees and bushes were separating the sites, and you are well away from your neighbors. The site gave us plenty of space to set up our chairs around a nice fire pit and one fine picnic table. Get water as you come into the CG, as the spigots throughout the park do not have threads. The 300 loop has pull-throughs that will handle large rigs, with 312 being the best. We got 5 bars 4G. on Verizon. We put Starlink on the roof and got a decent signal. There was a nice shower house/restrooms where the park also sold firewood. Formal trail systems are throughout the CG and park, and we enjoyed walking our dogs. We really like the variety of RV sites for all sizes of RVs, but it's too bad the CG area has no water views.

  Eckbeck Finland State Forest

  Private, and usually available mid-summer

  We wanted to do some climbing in Tettegouche State Park, but the state park campsites were filled weeks in advance. Fortunately, Eckbeck campground had sites available for us last minute. The sites are spaced apart, making them nice and private.

  Trail's End Campground

  beautiful, peaceful, but unbearably buggy

  The boundary waters is one of my favorite places on earth. But the mosquito hatch at the end of the summer was truly awful. See video for running around trying to keep them off.

  Big Rice Lake

  Peaceful location

  Campground is small with 3 free campsites, all of which can fit a small Rv or travel trailer. There is a boat landing with a vault toilet that was clean. Verizon cell reception of 2 bars. I was able to stream YouTube video.

  Whiteface Reservoir

  Private Sites

  Whiteface Reservoir Campground, MN: (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good (70 yr olds in 17’ trailer) We are only here for 1 night. So, we this is not as thorough campground examination as I’d do if we were here longer. However, the campground is near excellent, with water access near by and at some sites.
  Overall Rating: 4.7 Price 2023: $13 and &14 per site with the Lifetime Senior Pass. From the entry kiosk information, it appears that some sites have electricity available at an extra charge.
  Usage during visit: 75% full during midweek. Site Privacy: Many sites have a picnic table in a nice, private nook. Site Spacing: SUPERB Site surface: Gravel and pretty level. Reservations: Yes. On Rec.gov, any sites which are available for the 4 days out are listed as first come first serve. We had a few to choose from upon arrival. Looks like first come first serve sites with reservation dates falling within the 4 day first come first serve window have a reservation card hanging. Therefore, we knew how many days the first come first serve sites were available, as we drove by the sites and read their card. Campground Noise: Quiet Road Noise: Absolutely none.
  Through Traffic in campground: No problem Electric Hookup: Some sites Sewer Hookup: No Dump Station: No Potable Water Available: Yes, there is a spigot in each loop.

  Weather: Very nice.
  Bugs: Hungry mosquitoes. Solar: Minimal to none.
  Host: EXCELLENT. This host provides exceptionally clean sites and bathrooms, expresses kindness and helpfulness, and drove by our site after we arrived at sunset, to make sure we were fine. Super guy. Rig size: Large rigs are fine. Carefully check rec.gov info for each site. But, no worries.
  Sites: Lots of great sites. Ours, 17, does not have direct access to the water. Some sites do, which would be handy for canoes. (Sorry, I’m not here long enough to investigate more thoroughly.)

  Sherwood Forest Campground

  Lake Front campground.

  Got there after sunset met the host and easily found our campsite. The next morning we awoke to a wonderful view of the lake. Friendly people all around and would highly recommend this campground.

  Ninemile Lake Campground

  Private, large sites, well maintained

  I secured a first-come first-served site after calling a few other places, and we were pleasantly surprised by this campground. The sites were all a good size and surrounded by trees. I could barely see any of our neighbors, they were far away and kept from view. Bathrooms are clean and management is really kind and helpful. The lake is beautiful, with a little beach and swimming area! Reserve far in advance for a lakeside site—they’re gorgeous and all pretty large! Know that there’s about a 10mi gravel road that takes you to the campground. We bought firewood at a place on Hwy 1 for $5 a bundle.

  Finland State Forest - Eckbeck Campground

  Still one of my favorites

  Right now the campground looks a little worse for wear. They did extreme tree clearing do to moth damage. The cons: ATV noise, the tree clearing. Paying for the site can be confusing. I paid at tettegouche, QR code didn’t work and yodel didn’t work either. Pros: close to climbing, some really great state parks, SHT trail, fishing. Quieter than tettegouche.

  Beautiful campground

  Campground was well kept, not much noise, lots of spaces that have water access. The bathrooms and showers were neat and clean. Easy to checkin online either on-site or before you get there. Very few bugs of any kind.

  Crescent Lake Campground

  Go here.. its worth the drive!

  Don't expect cell service. I had Verizon and was teased with 1 bar, but really no service. The lake side sites are amazing. The Camp Host is great and keeps the place very clean and the pit toilets, don't worry about those, they are great some of the best maintained I've ever seen. This campground is a long way out there, but worth the drive. You can do a trip into Grand Marias, Lutsen or other Northshore areas fairly easily. Don't let it being on a gravel road and right next to the BWCA scare ya.
