Best Campgrounds near Fort Ransom, ND

This is a very well kept park. Lots of open space. It is a perfect place for overnight and for kayaking or canoeing. There is even a grill and picnic shelter.

Spending the night here was very calming and serene. I parked right next to the lake and watched the ducks. The overnight was very quiet and dark, perfect for sleeping. There are trees surrounding the little campground. It's in the middle of nowhere and totally worth the drive for a good night's sleep.

My husband and I packed up our gear one day and just headed out It's just far enough to shed all the city life that weighs you down sometimes. Secluded, clean, safe. A much needed escape....to breathe and reset mentally.

Okay, so we went in april and it was snowy and muddy. Couldn’t park in the campground itself out of fear we would get stuck. You’re driving on crazy dirt roads to get out there. The bathroom was locked. With all that being said, it was really pretty and it’s surrounded by lakes. Great sunsets and you could hear wild life from all angles. Probably great during the summer but there’s only Like 4-5 spots so first come first serve for sure.

A long, very dusty gravel road got us to this spot. By the time we left, our car and camper looked like 2 dirt piles. That said, the spot was very peaceful with a ton of birds. There is a pit toilet there which was locked. It had a sign telling you how to break in, in the case of emergencies. Never have seen such a sign before. Well, I needed to use it, broke in using a screwdriver, and Ohmygod. It’s going to take awhile to get that out of my head. Do not open up the pit toilet, no matter the emergency.

But they are very nice and friendly and I ended up with the best spot ever as it is right on the water and under the only few trees available. There is actually 3 campgrounds and they surround the lake. Some of the nicest tent spots I've seen. Small Frisbee golf course and not much formal hiking but you can boat on this lake and lots of fishing from the shore. Poor cell service but lots of open sky and the sat service is killing it today.

We might be back to this campground, assuming we don't have cell service where we're going. Calling a campground is a stretch. It's a few parking spots near a small park right inside the town. They're cute. They're nice summer in the shade. And I think milner's a pretty town.

Stayed for a few days and thought it was nice. There are two sections and one offers full services and the other just electric service but better shade. The park is well used by the community as there were softball games nightly and the pool was full.

We stopped here briefly in a cross country trip, so we got in late and left in the morning. This looks like a new site, made in a flat field near the vineyard. It is basically an open flat field with power/water hook ups in the middle and 14 gravel spots on either side. There are a few young trees planted, but no shade. No picnic tables, no restrooms, all pretty bare bones. There is one shared fire pit for the entire camp near the dumpster. The grass was freshly cut and there was no litter. The grapes growing next to us was a nice view to wake up to.

The one dumpster was very full, and no camp host or personelle to ask questions to. We reserved online about an hour before we arrived at 1am, and online said there were three other campers out of the 14 sites. Yet when we arrived, there were 4 additional campers there, luckily not in the spot we reserved. Heads up: There is a seven dollar tax/fee added on to our bill we didn’t know about until after we checked out. Don’t forget bug repellent. In as many forms as you can wear.

I think once the trees grow in a bit, and if they get picnic tables for each site, it would be much more user friendly.

Clean, easy booking online, full hookups and less than 10 minutes from 94. 8 sites total. Stayed at site 1 for $25. Great big fire pit but street light is right next to the site and bugs were biting. Overall quiet, safe location in historic town. Next time would like to check out Old 10 Saloon.

Good campsite, located in a huge field set pretty far off the river. It says there's room for 10 tents but really you could host a festival there. There's a couple picnic tables and fire pits and one trash can. There is no bathroom next to the tent sites. There is a pit toilet close by. When you reach the "Camp Rules" sign turn right for the camping and left for the pit toilet.

Parked in a shaded spot. Very quiet and well kept. Used Roverpass.com to reserve the spot. Very pleased

The campground is pretty but exposed would be hot in the summer. Has hookups water and sewer and there's a dump station around the corner. There's a beach boat dock fishing dock and a boat launch right here in this campground. Pit toilets no showers no other amenities. Beautiful view of the lake though and protected by the trees so it's a wildly windy day but not too bad we were camped.

Looks like they have about 15 sites You're essentially parked in the Sun. With hookups and a patch of grass but otherwise no shade and no activities so it must be for people who come to do sports or something else in town during the summer.

This is a well maintained well cared for well laid out county campground. A number of sites kind of exposed to the sun but hookups and bathrooms available. Tiny Lake for fishing and a beach for swimming. And good for North Dakota there's a large tree claim th at helps keep the wind off of you. I barely have Verizon service so if I was going to try to work I would probably have to use my satellite system but other than that it's adorable I wish it had more hiking.

This is an actual campground right next to the freeway right where the directions say that it is. Ignore the GPS or hopefully they'll correct the GPS. I did not stay here but I travel through often so I was curious to see if I could understand what and where it was. There seems to be hookups I have a feeling there is a building that has bathrooms in it and seems like they used to sell gas I'm not sure how much of that is still available.

This is nice spot good price flat spots has a playground lots of grass they have sports equipment you can barrow the dirt road can be pretty dusty but not bad if you go slow

We were the only campers, so there was plenty of space and the sound of the water was soothing.

Bugs were terrible and the train was loud once when we went to sleep and then once when we woke up.

Overall, the camp spot was a convenient and free stop on our road trip out west. Would stay again.

The sites aren’t very well indicating and so we parked next to a fire ring and picnic table. A van pulled up in front of us with plenty of room left for other neighbors. A sign indicates that camping for more than 10days is not permitted and rigs aren’t to be left unattended for more than 24hours. Two docks for the pups to jump off of and swim. Beautiful clear water was calling my name in the evening.
