The campground is very hilly so sites can be uneven. The sites are closer together than most Minnesota state parks. The campground is walking distance to the lake, a great beach, many planned naturalist activities, and access to the Paul Bunyan state bike trail. Overall good experience, nice campground.
Really well kept park. The reasons we didn't rate higher was that there is no swimming and the nearest town is about 30 miles away. If you're looking for a Minnesota woodsy (out in the boonies) location with all of the amenities, this is it.
We love this campground. There are 17 miles of paved biking paths, swimming beach, boat and bike rentals, 2 restaurants, Mississippi River headwaters and hiking.
The park is convenient to town. The view is not actually of the lake but of a river way and the view across the riverway is of an industrial building. The bathrooms are clean and they are the family style bathroom (sink, shower and toilet all in one room). All of the sites are pull throughs and have full hookups. This park had alot of older people with some BIG rigs.
Very clean, neat, and beautiful park. The only down side for us was how far the park was to the historic scenic road and some of the other activities that we were interested in.
Stayed at this park 2 nights - once going out to the West Coast and once again on the return trip. The park has new owners as of this spring and they are very friendly. The park is very clean. The only down-side is that you have to drive through a pretty rundown part of town to get to the park. The owners came around with free ice cream each night.
