The campground is nice and very well maintained. Lots of shade. HOWEVER our trip was cut short when a raccoon ripped into our tent in the middle of the night despite attempts to scare it off.

We absolutely love this place! We stayed for our second visit last week, we sort of stumbled upon this campground last year, and what a hidden gem. Our daughter spent her second visit at the YMCA Camp Nissokone overnight camp, so we stayed at Monument for two days after dropping her off. Theres so much untouched nature to explore, it’s clean, quiet, so peaceful. If you’re looking to really unplug , relax in some solitude, and connect with nature, yourself, and each other, this is your place.
