We went towards the end of march and luckily stumbled upon the park on a snow day. Was so magical, felt like we were in Narnia. We didn’t make it all the way to upper falls sadly because one of our group members didn’t like the ice so we turned around after 45 minutes. I thought it was a perfect day. Definitely need to come back to see the other falls. Lots of parking availability and very peaceful.

Had the best two weeks here. Campground is perfect. Only issue is there is no dump station there. Sunrise and sunsets were magical there. The trails all around the park are awesome. Best area for waterfall chasing

What a beautiful state park! We hiked the hiking club trail and it was around 3 miles that followed the Temperance river. What a spectacular gorge! Very short treck from 61 to the top. Be very careful with children!

Temperance River State Park is one of the most underrated and a hidden gem in the North shore. One. Would never get enough of the lake Superiors view from this park. I have camped here twice and the experience was amazing. I recommend camping at the lower campground and sports particularly 42-44 for the best experience. I am glad that I chose this park for my vacation. The amenities are good overall. They have an onsite shower and toilet facilities which are well maintained. Bug spray is a must because the park can get damp .

Beautiful park! Great nature trails for hiking, beautiful views of the river as it flows rapidly toward Lake Superior. During spring/summer definitely need some mosquito and black fly repellent due to the moisture and dense foliage.

Beauty at its best. A natural wonder you should not pass up if your in the area! Close to so many other fantastic places as well

Wonderful campground with activities for the whole family! Clean, well-kept, showers and bathrooms. Great campsites for the money. We hiked up to Carlton Peak (6 miles). Highly recommend!

Spent several days camping here. Absolutely loved it. Private campsites, amazing scenery, clean facilities. Will definitely be back. We came from out of state so didn't know we had to have a parking permit, but the officer here was super helpful and got us sorted straight away. Minnesota really does State Parks the right way.

Beautiful but too close to the noisy road.
