Lac qui Parle County Park

Lac qui Parle County Park sits on bluffs above Lac qui Parle lake in western Minnesota, operated by the county as a free camping destination. The upper campground area lacks mature trees, which creates open views across the water and allows breezes to reduce insect activity. Campers with larger RVs can access the sites, with one reviewer successfully camping in a 26-foot travel trailer.

The park provides basic amenities including drinking water, restrooms, and picnic tables, with firewood available for purchase. Cell coverage reaches the campground, with T-Mobile 5G service reported at two bars. For campers wanting more developed facilities, Lac qui Parle Upper Campground — Lac qui Parle State Park operates northeast of here with additional services.

Beautiful views from the Upper Campground

We had a lovely weekend overlooking Lac Qui Parle from our campsite. The lack of mature trees on the upper campground bluffs is a plus. A gentle breeze keeps the bugs down and allows for nice views. We have a 26’ travel trailer and got 2 bars of T-Mobile 5G service.
