Great location in Detroit Lakes area for RVs or travel trailers. Full hookups (power, water and septic). Reasonable prices. Friendly staff. Location was quiet. Recreation room with showers and restrooms. Fire pits. Gravel pads to park. East access in and out for my 24 ft travel trailer. I believe they are a veteran owned business. The campground is near the lake and they have a playground area for the kids.

Very well kept campgrounds. The owners, Todd & Karen are wonderful hosts. Very attentive, very personable and you can tell they take great pride in their campgrounds. The sites are spacious and just enough shade. Unfortunately we were there for fly season but besides that, fantastic! Karen makes the most delicious homemade bread and you can buy a loaf for $10. It’s a huge loaf and absolutely delish. We had the Italian Parmesan outta this world! Thanks for making our trip enjoyable! Site 21

I have been traveling ever since for 10 years now. This campground is definitely in my top 5. To 20 for value. First, the campground is gorgeous, spaces are comfortable, and the staff is amazing. The grounds are beautiful, green and manicured. The campground is perfectly located to all the activities Detroit Lakes have to offer.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A hidden gem with the kindest hosts! We had the BEST stay here! The owners were absolutely fantastic — genuinely kind, helpful, and went above and beyond to help us get our new camper set up properly. It made such a difference, especially as first-timers! On top of that, we were given a menu of fresh sourdough bread flavors to choose from at check-in — and sure enough, the next morning we were greeted with a warm, freshly baked loaf. It was such a thoughtful and delicious touch! The amenities were top-notch, and the entire campground — from facilities to individual sites — was spotless and beautifully maintained. You can tell they take great pride in this place. We can’t wait to come back. If you’re looking for a peaceful, clean, and welcoming place to stay — this is it!

We have been on the road for almost 10 weeks and have been to 30 campgrounds. This Campground is by far our favorite. It is absolutely perfect and welcoming. The host was so friendly and she even bakes Sourdough bread and sells it for $10 a loaf which is a steal. Everything is clean and it’s quiet and we would love to return someday.
