    "I didn’t love our campsite, it was small and not very private. I liked the look of the primitive campsites so I think that’s what I would book in the future if I didn’t need any power."

    Leistikow City Park

    Park is beautiful but utility hookups are horrendous!

    Good: green, lots of trees, big dog park, adjacent city park and trail, cute town. Bad: hook-ups are awful—they are behind your RV spot, shared with the RV behind you; shared power pedestals so only one gets 50amp, whoever gets there first; the 20amp breaker was useless; sewer connections are 90° angle and 1/2” off ground so almost impossible to use sewer elbow and they have sewer flies; water is a pex tube coming out of the ground, shared, and had a unremovable fitting that did not allow me to connect my pressure regulator. Some sites have utilities on the COMPLETE OPPOSITE side of standard RV connections requiring two additional sewer hoses and extra power cord. Ridiculous.

    Icelandic State Park Campground

    Clean Facilities, Great Host, Crowded on Weekends, No Privacy

    We stayed at Icelandic State Park Campground and were very impressed by how well-kept the place is. The restrooms and showers were genuinely clean— no bugs, no bad smells, and consistently hot water... unless someone next to you opens a faucet. Pro tip: the family shower room has reliably hot water at all times. 

    The campground host was excellent— friendly, helpful, and clearly takes pride in the place. 

    The grounds are large, clean, and well-maintained— freshly mowed and very tidy. That said, there’s almost zero privacy at most sites, so don’t expect any seclusion. We were there on a weekend, and the place was fully booked— it's clearly a popular destination, so reserve ahead. 

    Note: in addition to the campground fee, you also pay a park entrance fee($7 per vehicle per day, or per entry— not entirely clear). 

    Our Starlink connection worked perfectly— open skies made for a strong, stable signal.

    Beautiful space

    I didn’t love our campsite, it was small and not very private. I liked the look of the primitive campsites so I think that’s what I would book in the future if I didn’t need any power. The bathrooms and showers were very clean and modern.

    Icelandic State Park Campground

    Quiet nature and hisotry on the prairie

    This is a small quiet state park in northeast North Dakota that offers a nature preserve with rare plants and birds in a cool bur oak-basswood  stand with spring fed fens around it. A nature trail with little footbridges carries you through. There is also a native prairie restoration, and historic exhibits about the different cultural groups who made their homes here from prehistoric times to today.  A nice little oasis! The campground is set on a pleasant little reservoir, as we are tent campers we loved that the tent area was in the so called "primitive" area  with only tents, with sites all along the shore and close to the nature preserve. It was a weeknight, and no one else was there so it was very peaceful! Fo folks who have campers or rvs, there are three well set up loops with hookups and all the amenities. We also appreciated that they have a dog park on site! I havent seen that in a state park before. The staff was really friendly and helpful. Due to covid restrictions there are more rules to follow and limited programming etc, but you can still swimm and fish and boat on your own. The only drawback is that you can hear road noise from trucks on the highway nearby which is noticeable at night.

    Icelandic State Park Campground

    Wonderful camping

    We have stayed here twice and will definitely go back again. Playgrounds is great for the kids, bike/ hiking trails are very nice. Beach is great for those hot summer days, they also have an ice cream shop down by the beach. Bathrooms and showers are very nice and clean. We normally stay in the North Loop and have water and electric sites with dump station very accessible when leaving. They have different kids activities worth the Park Rangers and some theme weekends.

    This place has really clean bathrooms.

    This campground has a lot of shady spots, a nice dog park and access to great hiking trails. The museum across the highway is also worth a visit. During the week everything was pretty quiet. They clean the bathrooms like three times a day.

    I did not see a dog off leash unless at the dog park.

    They don’t seem to have enough staff though. If you want to rent a kayak or if the rental bikes aren’t working, there isn’t anyone to help. The kayaks were all just sitting on the beach however, so you could help yourself.

    There something for everyone, whether it’s fishing, educational, or camping

    Came here during the week and it was very nice. There is several things available from kayak rental to paddle boarding, there’s a nice area for families to swim at and also an area for those who want to fish. Many historical sites can be found on the area including the museum in the visitors center.

    Icelandic State Park Campground

    Beautiful!

    Great campground with large, mostly shady sites. Very large (150+ sites) but doesn’t feel that big. Some sites are quite uneven so be sure to have lots leveling equipment if you aren’t familiar with your site. I did notice poison ivy in the wooded area surrounding our spot, so be aware for yourselves and any children. Bathrooms were recently remodeled and are super nice! The beach is large and very nice with soft sand and shady picnic areas. Rental kayaks and paddle boards for great prices and a concession stand as well. Lots of trees perfectly spaced for hammocks and to hang clotheslines!

    Icelandic State Park Campground

    Very likely the premier State Park for North Dakota

    I spent a week here working and exploring the area. There's just so much to see and do both within the park and in the surrounding area. There's the museum across the street The hikes in the park the beach the boating the lake. If you play golf that's right around the corner and has a paved trail that takes you there and down into cavalier. And if you can drive a little bit there's the Pembina River gorge, the state forest and those hikes and those lookouts, Walhalla with its historical sites. There really is a little bit for anyone who might be interested and close to the area. By the way I was here the week before Memorial Day week and for most nights I was the only person in the park it was quite nice.
