I've camped here 3 times. Twice we camped in a trailer and the last time in a tent. The campground location is scenic, but has flooded several times over the years. I paid $37 for a tent site which is the same price as you would pay for a site with water and electric. I feel this is quite high especially considering that they also except you to pay for showers. I have never run into that situation before. The campground has a nice pool and playground nearby. However, there are several other smaller play areas scattered around in various stages of collapse. The mini-golf course is old and neglected yet costs $3 per person. They will nicely deliver wood to your site if you chose to buy it. However, the wood I received was very, very wet and despite strong efforts would not remain lit. Based on this experience and the previous lackluster experiences, I would not bother to stay here again and would not recommend it to anyone. We camped here in a Tent.
We've camped here a couple of times and we've had a good time. They have fun activities. Nice pool, horsey rides, decent playground. Easy, beautiful hiking around the river. It's a nice quick drive from Minneapolis/St. Paul. My only complaint is that the bathrooms are not well maintained. The toilets have a hard time flushing. The paper towels run out. So by the end of the weekend, the bathrooms are in a sorry state. If only they would put a plunger in each stall and add another paper towel dispenser. There is one main bathroom/shower house. Everything else in the park is porta potties. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We camped here on a very hot, muggy weekend in July so it was great that this campground has lots of very shaded sites! Most sites looked pretty level & easy to get set up on. The exceptions being along the river. It is true that the road & sites along 164-173 gets very muddy (not sure when it rained there last but there were no other muddy roads or sites in the campground). The site we had (#205) had great spacing with a good size field by our site for activites. Our site was very close to the bathrooms but some sites did require a little bit of a hike to the bathrooms/showers. The bathrooms themselves were not too bad. Showers could have been kept up better but overall not too bad. The pool at this campground is clean & large. As you can imagine it was very busy given the weather when we stayed here. The staff was very friendly & helpful! Saturday night bingo at 8pm was fun! We didn't partake in tubing, mini golf & some of the other activities they offer but will the next time we come back. This campground is showing its age a little bit but nothing that should keep anyone from camping here. It is a campground that I will camp at again & would not hesitate to bring children to. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Staff was friendly enough and there were a lot of activities for kids. Pool was in very nice shape. They had a band on Sunday evening and other activities for adults to participate in as well. Campground was fairly well maintained but many sites either have no shade or the ones that do have shade are crammed in very tightly. 4 sites share water and electric which can make it difficult when you have a tent trailer and two travel trailers all via'ing for the same power and water. Overall not bad, recommend sites 121 and 122 for good shade and size. Try to stay out of the Little John's area, and the Greens. Bathrooms were clean but showers were filthy. Lots of porta johns that needed to be cleaned. We had to request that the one next to us get pumped as it was very smelly by the second day into the trip. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Campground is on the Zumbro River. Had a site along the river. Lots of activities for the kids. On the negative side, the road at our campsite was mud. Almost got stuck on the way in. "Rent-A-Jon’s" scattered throughout the campground, but they were not cleaned out at all during the weekend. Smelled pretty bad by Sunday afternoon. Might be OK on a regular weekend, but not a holiday weekend. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We camped here for about 4 days, most sites are nice with some shade depending on site. There is one main bath house and we saw many people driving there vehicles up to the restrooms because they were in the further out sites. The bathrooms and showers were OK, often there was dirty floors from kids (?) dirty feet getting tracked in. The store is small with a few booths to sit down, nothing fancy. I'd maybe go back again but won't be in a hurry. Camprounds were a mile or so back in off the highway on a gravel road, too bad it wasn't blacktop. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
