I had an awesome time at Lake Minden Thousand Trails! The bathrooms were clean, which was a major plus. The lake was beautiful, and there were tons of fun activities to do. Plus, the staff was really friendly!

Awesome park in a quiet area. We stayed in their cabins for 2 nights and our children had a blast watching the wildlife in the pond, playing at the playground, and running with our dog at the dog park. The cabin was very clean when we got there and the beds were comfortable. We will definitely be planning another trip here again soon!

We always have a wonderful stay at Thousand Trails Lake Minden! This park is incredibly family- and kid-friendly, which made our stay even better. The playground and mini golf were big hits, and it was so nice having safe spaces where the kids could play outside freely without us constantly worrying. The lake adds a peaceful, relaxing feel to the campground, and the grounds are well maintained and clean. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, and the staff was friendly and helpful during our stay. It’s a great place for families, especially those traveling with kids, as well as long-term RVers looking for a comfortable and safe environment. We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again. Highly recommend!

Well, lots to be said about this campground. First, the assistant manager was very helpful with me when an entitled woman decided to remove my laundry from the machine. Thank you for your help. The staff here are great, the campground could use some TLC. Far too many potholes on the path around the lake. The laundry needs a plumber to install proper drainage so it doesn't flood. The lake itself is rather muddy, and the fish consist of Catfish, Carp, and Small mouth Bass. The park hardly had any sewer sites so be prepared to use public bathrooms or dump stations. I have stayed here 3 times and the water has been turned off for at least a day during all 3 visits which I found odd. Park has too many people on the verge of homeless staying at it, these people bouncing back and forth between the local thousand trails parks around. Like that's not what the parks were designed for and it shouldn't be allowed. Outside of that most sites are 30 amp. The grounds are fairly well kept, bathrooms are clean, overall 4 out of 5 stars.
