This is a nice place to camp when visiting St. Paul and Minneapolis. It's in the country with pines all around, but less than 1/2 hour from the cities. We stayed in the section with just water and electric and liked these sites very much. They were spacious with shade and some privacy. The full hookup area appeared to be more the typical tight spots you find in private CG's. Bathrooms were fantastic! Clean, nicely designed, even had flower arrangements! Small pool and a basic playground. No store to speak of, just ice cream and firewood. Nice selection of used paperbacks- on an exchange, you bring one and then take one. Seasonals were plentiful (a lot of people staying there while working in the area), but all were neat and kept up nice. Quiet at night. This is not a destination CG, but a great little spot to camp and discover the area. No website, but here is their phone: 651-437-5269. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
A quiet campground even when full, that was nice. Some of the sites were hilly and the grass was very weedy so there were a lot of ticks in the area. The park was nice and there are a lot of activities. On the fence if we would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed here while visiting the twin cities. Overall, a good experience. The campsites in the water / electric section are pull through and pretty spacious with good separation. I would estimate that the sites are at least 50' apart in most cases with trees scattered throughout for privacy. The electric only sites seem to have smaller pads and in some cases are closer together than the water / electric sites. The primitive sites in the woods were very private but only big enough for tents. The bathroom was clean however the showers were looking a little old and probably in need of new floors. There is firewood available in the campground or at the office for $4. It's probably the most quality firewood I've received for that price. A good deal. The campground host was very friendly and helpful but not intrusive. There are several walking trails throughout the park and some are paved. The beach was clean although it's a river so no telling what the water conditions are or what's floating by the day you want to swim. There is also a boat launch. I don't know that I would classify this park as a destination itself for more than a weekend, but it's a great place to use as a base while you explore the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A very well thought out county campground with a section of pull-thru sites that accomodates even the biggest rig. Other areas are more for trailers, popups and tents. No sewer hookups but there is a dump station. Several large playgrounds throughout park for the kids and a boat launch on the St. Croix for the bigger "kids". You park on gravel, but most of the rest of the site (except the heavily wooded ones in the tent area) is nice and grassy. Most of the ones we saw were fairly level. Some sites may have low hanging branches but quite a few are out in the open if you need satellite. Very active camp hosts. Besides the nightly fee you also need to purchase a day pass each day you are there ($5 per day). Out in the country but within 1/2 hour to the Twin Cities and lots of picturesque river towns and scenery. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
