Pulled in around suppertime weeknight grabbed a spot and set up. Road a bit nearby but shady old trees and the rolling river made this campground idyllic. $25/night

This campsite deserves all the stars! I hesitantly write this review because I’m selfish and don’t ACTUALLY want anyone else coming here and taking up spaces at the campsite. The location is scenic while also very conveniently located. I typically have gone in the fall when the colors are changing and the weather is cool. Waking up to the colorful tree line and the flowing river is so peaceful. The grounds are near a BP gas station and a few small local bars. Typically, if we venture out we hit up one of the nearby state parks. The on-site canoe/kayak/tubing rentals are very fun in the summer and offer a pleasant break from the campsite. The people working on the grounds are also very welcoming. Mike was the first to greet me when I arrived to set camp for my group and was so friendly. Sully came by later in the evening to offer firewood and collect the site fees. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to the campgrounds and we enjoyed chatting with/getting to know him. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quick weekend away.

THIS CAMPSITE DESERVES NO STARS! There is an older guy with long hair and long beard that drives around drunk on a golf cart, not sure what his role is but works at the campground. He approached our campsite earlier in the day. I had questions in regards to the wood. Was the wood we purchase from the campground kept under shelter and also the latest we could purchase wood as rain was in the forcast and I was waiting to see what the weather outcome would be. A few hours later, the drunk guy on the golf cart drove up to our campsite and parked as we were gathering with friends. He welcomed himself to a conversation with us. Drunk guy said he would talk to everyone at the site and with rudness he said exept for me, the one who was questioning him on purchasing wood. What an insult !? After feeling the need to defend myself he then said "I feel bad for your husband, IF you have one!" In front of my children and friends. This in return triggered my son as my husband, the father to my children had recently just passed away. This then triggered me enough to pack everything up and leave at 10PM with my kids. The guy showed no remorse when I explained the situation regard my husband and kids father passing. He continued to degrade me and argue. I wouldn't recommend this site to anyone one EVER!! I would also like all of my money back including all the extra money to make this trip happen! This was the first time we had tried a tubing/camping without their dad! The drunk guy crushed us! :( $100 for tubing & $50 for the site. $200+ for additional expenses. And an APOLOGY to me and my kids !!!! I will continue to share my story and the name of the campground as long as this drunk guy works there!!

The camp host is extremely rude. He deals with so many ppl that I feel he can't handle it anymore. His staff are nice but he is not. I would not recommend this place to anyone!!!

Owner accosted us for parking in the parking lot and trying to dock our tubes in the river, after 2 of his staff said it would be ok as long as we moved the car. You can buy better tubes and a pump online, also there is public access to the river .25 miles down the road.

It was a great time tubing down the Zumbro River! See a lot of wild life and got some great memories.
