Devils Lake State Park Group Campground — Devils Lake State Park

Went with an outdoor adventure class, views were beautiful, climbing was great! Campgrounds were clean and had easy access to water, got a visit from some local raccoons at night, overall experience was great!

Spent a weekend here in one of the group sites (G3) in mid November 2021. It was in the 30s at night but got up to the high 40s during the day, great camping weather!

Spent about 5 hours hiking the East Bluff, it was challenging for some of our younger hikers, bd when we decided to head home most were excited.

I’ve been to Devils Lake before but forgot just how beautiful this place is. Everyone was impressed by Devils Doorway. Would love to go back and hike the Western Bluff.

Camp life was awesome, we ate very well since we brought two Dutch ovens. We are Cowboy Casserole, Mountain Man breakfast, peach cobbler, 7 can soup, hobo dinner and apple sausage casserole. I would definitely return to Devils Lake!

Weekends are pack with campers. The beaches have hard pebbles and rocks.

We went during the week and it kept the crowds to a minimum. The south shore beach was best and we took the East Bluff trail to do some rock climbing with the kids. Reserved the group camp for three families, cost was $40 a night for a secluded, spacious, clean group site. we had a great time and will definitely return. The birds near the group camp are cool, but can also sound like a large pack of dinosaurs squawking at each other...very loud.

This is a review for the group camp sites:

The group sites are well spaced out from each other and offer pit toilets and full bathroom facilities with sinks, toilets and showers within walking distance from all sites. You can even drive to the bathrooms as there is a small parking area next to them. Next to the bathrooms is a water pump where you can collect water and haul it back to your site.

The sites are heavily wooded which protects from rain but also means they are dirt with a ton of leaves.

There is a beach and camp store/ concession stand (south) a short drive or longer walk away. At this area you can rent paddle boards, Canoes, kayaks and paddle boats. I found during our stay that this store was not always open which means you have to drive to the North one. This is a 20 minute drive.

The Park offers a lot of hiking trails with amazing views.
