Willow River State Park Campground

It’s a great park conveniently located near the twin cities making it a great spot for a quick getaway.

Stayed in the 100 loop. The sites are secluded by sumac trees. Sites are level, electric power and fire ring. The back side of the 100 loop where we stayed was a ways from the bathhouse. Bathroom and showers were clean and fresh. Very few bugs. Because we were there during the week, the loop was probably 70% full.

T-mobile reception was good. No reception in the other two loops as they are down the hill farther.

Lots to do here. Hiking, Mountain Biking, bird watching and Campin! Three great campgrounds with the 300 loop being the oldest. However, it is the only one with lake sites and has a night playground in the center of it for kids. Great trail from the campground to the falls as well with very little elevation gain. 200 and 100 loops are newer and the 100 loop has the best shower facility as well as a small playground. The draw back for 200 and 100 is more road noise (Cty A) and less tree cover. Cell service is solid 5G in the 200 and 100 campgrounds. 300 isn't quite as good as you are in the valley more and have more trees.

We've camped here in every season by winter and at multiple sites.
