Welles Memorial Park

3 ReviewsAdd Review

Welles Memorial Park operates as part of the city fairgrounds, creating an unusual campground setting with sites integrated into the event grounds. The City of Breckenridge, Minnesota manages this facility, which provides electric and water hookups for RVs along with basic amenities including restrooms and an outdoor shower. Most sites offer minimal shade coverage.

Campers can access bike trails across the street and walking paths down to the river. The campground sits within city limits but maintains a large open space feel, with several oversized sites available. Reservations are available through a somewhat complex booking process, and the facility allows pets throughout the grounds.

Camping in the county fairgrounds

The campsites are integrated into the fairgrounds which is different but nice. Very little shade for most of the sites and the reservation process is a bit difficult to navigate but the sites is nice and quiet. There is a bathroom and an outside shower but way better if you have a full camper. Nice access to town and bike trails and across the street and some trails down by the river.
