Northern pike fishing draws anglers to Rice Lake County Park, where a small lake provides boat-in access for campers seeking water-based recreation. The county-managed park offers a handful of free campsites with no water or electric hookups, making it a basic option for self-sufficient campers. Some residential homes sit around the lake perimeter.
Located near Minot, the park serves weekend visitors looking for a simple lakeside setup. Campers wanting more amenities can explore camping near Minot or check out Nelson Carlson Lake to the south.
