I guess there are no previous remarks because this place is so unremarkable. Sites are gravel on mud (with leaky taps) in a field behind a CW bar. Don't pay for the sewer connection unless your pipe is at the extreme aft end of your rig: with my mid-mounted pipe I had to use the dump station, which is slanted the wrong way. The new restrooms are huge, modern and spotless. Overall an OK place for a night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The campground is close enough to Duluth to commute from, but far enough away that you don't feel like you are in the city. This is not an RV resort, it is a campground, so you should know what to expect. We camped in a 36' 5th wheel. We had plenty of room although the campground was full. We arrived during the week, when the park wasn't full, so had no trouble pulling into our spot. Later when the park was full, it might have been more difficult. The there were two park hosts who rotated days. Park was clean, bathrooms were clean. We used the laundry facilities, which were nice. Local campers and out-of-towners were friendly. There was one rowdy bunch who shot off fireworks, they were immediately shut down. Not much gravel on the pads, spots were not level. But that is what a campground is like. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This place looks better on the website than it really is. It is a small, extremely crowded park with everyone crammed in right next to each other. There were lots of local people who had come in big groups to party, so it certainly wasn't peaceful or quiet. There was not a lot of maneuvering for a large motor home, partly because of the narrow roads and trees and partly because of the way the sites are laid out. It was okay for an overnight stay, but I wouldn't return here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Indian Point CG, Duluth, MN. Stayed here for one night June 30, 2007. Nice CG in a somewhat unusual location in South Duluth. Easy to get to from I-35. Directions in Woodalls are right on the money. Clean, quiet, well run CG. The only thing I would caution is to be sure you emphatically specify the size of your rig when you make your reservation. Many of the sites are quite narrow and close together, although there are some nice big rig sites. We were put into a spot (Site #15) and I was assured that it was an easy fit for my 35ft 5er and my 25ft truck. NOT! I never would have made it in were it not for the fact that the sites across the road weren’t occupied and I was able to maneuver into and out of them. But overall a nice place with very friendly hosts. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
If you are requesting an electric site, make sure when booking that electric means at least 30 amps. We were under the assumption that it was, and when we arrived we found out that our site was only 15 amps. After complaining we were moved and everything was fine after that. A lot of tents at this campground. It really didn't get quiet until midnight. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Wooded, quiet. Lovely setting. Wish it were nearer the downtown Duluth area, but it's very close to the Munger Bike Trail. There is a playground nearby which looked like fun for little kids. We camped here in a Tent.
In city campground in Duluth's west side right on St Louis river. Close to Canal Park and all attractions. Sites are fairly level with good shade. TV reception pretty good. Now for the bad: Badly understaffed, poor city worker was at end of his rope by 3pm on Saturday of 4th of July weekend. Bathroom/Shower buildings were in terrible physical shape and generally unclean. All this from a city that extracts a 12% tax on even a Big Mac. Despite being "City" park did not see one cop in 3 nights. Expect to pay the 16% lodging tax on your patch of grass. Location is this place's saving grace. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We had previous reservations for a local campground on the mountain and ran into problems beyond our control. We were left with no choice but to look for new campgrounds. We found Jeff (campground manager) at Indian Point Campground and although he was full, he jockeyed us into a site for our week stay. The campground is very pleasant and well kept. Jeff was bar none the most hospitable campground manager that I have encountered. He put forth a great deal of effort to ensure not only a high level of comfort but made it possible for us to stay in a wonderful campsite close to Duluth for a solid week. In my opinion a campground can only be as good as its manager and if Jeff managed a camground in a different location I would rate it a 10. The location is a bit blue collar, but this forgotten quickly once entering the campground. I recommend this campground highly. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Camped in pop-up 4 nights in Aug 2005. Grounds are good with mostly grass to some gravel, some mowing was needed in areas but not bad. Large open area around small playground located near bathhouse. You can see most other campsites from anywhere. Large trees on grounds with partial to no shade depending on location. Laundry room was good. Bathrooms were OK. Mens room had 1 air dryer so no paper towels are used at all. Showers are OK, though the changing portion of the showers were small, hardly any room to change and only a hook to hang clothing on. No shelf or stool in the shower to set your clothes or shower bag on. Shower is on concrete and the small portion to change on is a small wooden step plank so at least you are off the floor, but can be dirty if someone previously was standing with dirty shoes. 2 showers in men's room, wife had to wait on weekend to use shower as it was busy. Wife said there was a puddle of urine in one of the stalls for a day. We later realized there is a mop in the laundry room which could have been used to clean up. Only one grounds attendant manages the grounds for the city. Overall, I would stay again, it wasn't home, but wasn't bad, and it was about the only campground this close in to Duluth that we were aware of. The area is generally quiet except for occasional sound of nearby train track and occasional sirens of emergency vehicles on nearby Grand Ave. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This was a decent campground. It is on the water and has a small dock but does not have a swimming area. The showers and restrooms left a lot to be desired. Did have a problem with a loud group across from us and couldn't find any staff after 10 p.m. to quiet them down. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Pretty good setting if you want to do some fishing. Good piers and boat ramp. Very bad road into camp. Not close to any areas such as shopping or restaurants. Gravel areas to park in and some grassy dirt areas with small swimming area at lake. Park was sort of old style and good sites had fulltimers or seasonals in them. It was clean and the lake was pretty. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Be aware that this is a “sea-worthy” camping experience; in other words, not the usual stuff but well worth it. This is a paved parking lot, on the waterfront with easy and convenient access to the city. Be prepared to attach your pressure regulator to the site’s water faucet. TV reception is weak. What a great experience to park with the big boats. We “camped” for three nights and would do it again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great location for tourists. Lots of great restaurants nearby. Unique campground since it's really a marina. The water pressure is 110 psi, so bring a regulator. Free washer and dryer in the harbor house. Dump station requires that you use their hose and it's right at the entrance gate. I was little surprised when I asked if I could stay an hour longer and was told no...there was only about 3 other RVs in the RV area and lots of spaces for newcomers. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Excellent location on park point just over the scenic lift bridge. The Duluth aquarium, sandy beach on Lake Superior and 2 maritime museums as well as several top notch restaurants are in walking/biking distance. We spent a week there. Owner is somewhat indifferent to the campers as he is really a boat basin and dock for yachts. Spaces are adequate and paved-no grass. Back in only. Hookups are all top notch 50 amp, sewer etc. WiFi is $8 a day-Ouch! Would stay again just for the location-services are adequate but not exceptional. It is fenced in with card access through a gate so security is good. Showers are free and fairly clean. No swimming or recreation in the park really. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
It is not a fancy Campground but it is right close to the Downtown area. We enjoyed watching the boat traffic coming off the lake and meeting a few of the people who dock their boats at the Marina who were very friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.
What a great place to park your RV. Welcome change from the normal parks. Right on the waterfront of a busy harbour and a short walk to the city centre. Somebody had a bright idea to use the space used for winter boat parking. Sure, it does not have everything that an RV Park normally has but the benefits more than make up for that. Would definitely call in again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great area to see the lake, shipping traffic, lift bridge and the local attractions. At night, overlooking the Duluth harbor, it is beautiful! We are returning this year in July. The weather in Duluth in September is very cool. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Despite the full hookup sites, RVers need to know that this is not a "campground" per se, but a marina in which the owner rents empty boat storage lots to RVers during the summer (when the boats are all in the water). While the owner (Joel) is a very nice man who is very accommodating to his guests, RVers should not expect a campground atmosphere (i.e., showers, bath houses, pet walk areas, etc.). That having been said, this place DEFINITELY has it's advantages (and disadvantages, as well). THE ADVANTAGES ARE: 1) The view! As this is a marina, many of the sites are directly on the water (like 60 feet away), 2) It is very close (less than 5 blocks) to downtown Duluth, and Duluth's famous aerial bridge is only 2 blocks away, 3) It's proximity to restaurants, downtown, shopping, etc. means that you don't have to use your toad if you don't mind walking a few blocks. THE DISADVANTAGES ARE: 1) The water pressure is HIGH (like around 100 psi), so PLEASE BE SURE to use your regulator, 2) As this place is located on a marina adjacent to an active harbor, you may hear the fog horns and/or ship heralding horns (which are VERY loud) at any hour of the day or night (but we were there for 2 nights and heard only 1 such horn), 3) There is very little grass here for walking your pets (as it's a marina), but there is a small patch of grass (about 40' x 10') near the office. All in all, it is a nice place. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We really enjoyed this park, because of its location. It is right by a boat dock, with the Duluth harbor in full view. We watched ships come through the channel, and the aerial bridge raise to let them in or out of the harbor. It is somewhat tight for big rigs, but the view is worth the maneuvers to get parked. We had a front row seat for the awesome fireworks on the 4th of July! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nicely kept, quiet park with large sites. Quite open at moment since trees have only been growing a few years. Washrooms, showers and laundry very well done. Several large ponds within the campsite layout add interest. A large number of additional sites being added around another pond. Wireless internet worked very well. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Signage to campground good. Confusing where to park rig to register. Owner friendly and efficient although only accepts cash or checks. Campground appears to have been developed in old gravel quarry. Access roads good within campground. Slightly soleness, open aspect serried rank style level sites with full hook-ups. A lot of small insects around. Campground is 10 miles north of Duluth. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice open park with friendly-helpful office person. 10-15 minutes North of Duluth. Cleanest rest rooms I have encountered in awhile. Nice rec area. Aprons are gravel but reasonably level. Several small lakes and wandering geese added to ambience. Very peaceful setting. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice for a couple of day's stay. Large grounds to roam and a couple of small lakes. We used this location to travel up the west shore of Lake Superior. Small play ground for the kid's and a very nice modem location. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
People were nice and the park looks fairly new. Trees are newly planted. Two or three small lakes around the park area. Good place to stop when passing through. Very close to highway but far enough away to be quiet and just outside Duluth. Gravel roads in park. Big wide open sites. RV wash building on site. New check in buildings. With Duluth close by, shopping, RV service shops, restaurants and Lake Superior are all close. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had reservations (used internet site) to stay at this campground for one week. We arrived on a saturday afternoon about 4:30 p.m. Found my site and had a good idea that my 29' travel trailer was not going to fit although I was told previously that it would. I backed in, and the tongue of the trailer was in the road. The door of the trailer opened into multiple trees and a thick patch of poison ivy. When I made reservations there were only two sites open at the time. Since the site I reserved was unusable and inhabitable, I went to the office to see if I could move. There was nobody at the office and I called two phone numbers that I found from the Minnesota campground guide and nobody answered the phone either. I had no choice but to find a different campground. We left a note explaining our situation and they called 1 day later saying that they would refund all but one days worth ($25) due to policy. I felt that this was unfair because I did not back out of the 'deal'. I showed up on time and there was no alternative for me due to lack of personnel. I give this campground a rating of 1 because 0 is not an option. If I had a full refund they would have had a 3. It is a nice location and the sites are small and private, good for tents and pop-ups. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We only toured the campground since we were in the area (we have a popup). Sites are all set in heavily wooded area so most if not all sites are quite private. Restrooms located at each of the 3 main loops of the grounds were clean and good showers and sinks. Showers even had rubber basket-weave mats in them, a plus in my book. Sites were often small to average size, some with little free space in them for added play room. Sites were not all level and a few would require an extra eye for backing in. A few sites were pull through. Overall, rugged grounds at most sites, some were nice so we marked them in our pamphlet for future reference. Grounds are located at top of the hill above Duluth just off I-35. Gravel roads on grounds. If you like private sites in heavily wooded area, you will like this. Be sure to tour the grounds before deciding on a spot if available before committing, as some of the sites are rugged, being small or unlevel, with some small sharp valleys next to the site which may make a challenge in the dark going from your camper to the picnic table. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
