This Campground is quite and we'll kept. Camp sites are fairly spacious and some sites are located by a pond. They have a nice community building to utilize and bathrooms located within. Would not hesitate to go back.

This place is amazing! Beautiful landscaping, well cared for buildings and solid full hook ups for your RV. Roads are a little tight but maneuverable. Good water pressure and electric was solid. We will definitely be back to spend more time here.

We stopped at this campground on our way back down towards Texas. The sites are very roomy and big rig friendly. The owner was very attentive and understanding. We ended up having to extend an extra night due to issues we were having with our truck. We were so glad to be stuck at a place that is well kept and has beautiful views. If we are back in Minnesota we will for sure stop back here!

Beautifully laid out RV Park with mature shade trees and amazing landscaping. Large, level gravel spaces with plenty of room for an easy back-in. It has a small lake with a walking trail and large grassy areas that my dog loves. I found this gem while planning a trip to North Central Minnesota and stayed here both coming and going. Looking forward to stopping here again on my next trip thru!

This is a very pretty park. Pond is lovely as well as the entrance. There is a path that leads to this grassy area that is just gorgeous and not used for anything. It would make a nice dog park or something. The landscaping is so pretty with all the flowers. The reason for the 4 star is the trees upon entering need to be trimmed. We had one of the two pull through sites which was quite large but our slide was in the branches. That needs to be addressed. Other than that it was a very nice stay.
