This park is beautiful and has the kindest hosts. We were here in offseason (January 27-February 1st) but the entire park was well tended to and everyone was so nice. The kids sifted for quartz and crystals in the lake (there is a crystal mine nearby), beautiful sunsets, extraordinarily clean campgrounds and bathhouses were some of the best we have encountered on our journeys. I’m sure this is a VERY busy park during season but most certainly worth a trip any time of year.
We were in RV site 25, which had a huge amount of space to roam. Weather wasn’t great for our 5 night visit in late January but we really enjoyed our stay. Windy roads, hills and GPS took us the “scenic” route into the campground. It’s just a few miles from the Mississippi River which this time of year had huge beach front to explore and watch the barges go back and forth. The bath houses need some work, there is NO cell service (which I kind of enjoyed) but other than that a beautiful park with plenty to do.
This park has beautiful sites. We stayed in the premium waterfront (January 15th for 6 days, during offseason) and while there were quite a few other neighbors we felt like we had the place to ourselves. I’m sure the place is hopping during season. We kayaked, fished, hiked and the kids geocached, biked and scootered. Great cell service (my kids homeschool). The bath houses were extraordinarily clean and we saw them cleaning them at least once a day. The camp store was a little bare but had a great selection of live bait and tackle. Would definitely return again
This campground was beautiful. The sites are fairly close together but they are spacious and the wooded area makes you feel like it’s your own little spot. Just a short walk to the beautiful clean beach with lots of shells. We hiked along the beach to the lighthouse. Beautiful views from the top of the lighthouse. We hiked one of the many trails back to camp. A very short drive to amazing local seafood restaurants that overlook the water. Everything was clean and well kept and the staff was kind and helpful in every interaction. This place is a must visit!
My family and I spent five days in early December at this gorgeous campground. It was perfect! We arrived late which was no problem with their contactless check in. The rv spots are flat and clearly marked and very easy full hook ups. We pretty much had the place to ourselves due to the season. We were steps from the beach and enjoyed fishing, shell searching, and the beautiful views. The grounds have mini golf, tennis and basketball courts which the kids loved. Everything was extraordinarily clean. We will definitely be back!
