Summary

Winnie Campground is praised for its friendly host, Nicole, who has significantly improved the campground's cleanliness and maintenance. Campers appreciate the spacious, beautiful sites, immaculate vault toilets, and the peaceful atmosphere, especially during less crowded times. However, there are some concerns regarding bear activity in the area, which has prompted campers to be cautious with food storage.

The campsites are very large and beautiful. We had the entire campground to ourselves for the first few days so very peaceful. It was wonderful to be able to use generator as we travel with medical equipment. Also, the vault toilets were immaculate and smelled like peppermint. Can't beat the price either.

The campsite was wonderful. But the boat landing was too shallow and I was hoping to be able to buy firewood.

Camp host Nicole and her husband do a great job of maintaining campsites. Best we have seen for a long, long time. The path along the lake could be trimmed out a little better.

Our campground host (Nichol) is 'rock solid'. As a 'Native American' she understands the need to connect with nature thru camping in the outdoors. The walking trails and campsites were mowed to keep back the poison ivy and mosquitoes. The bathrooms were always furnished with toilet paper and clean. I even saw her distribute some free firewood to the campsites.
The unfortunate thing that happened was a bear breaking into a sleeping tent during the day. The Conservation Officers told us we had we had to leave at 7:30 PM, if we slept in a tent, or receive a citation. This whole thing was blown way out of proportion with the limited time frame. Packing up and going home made families travel all night to get home at 5 AM in southern Minnesota. What will USFWL, do to compensate us for having to leave 2 days prior to our paid departure date?

  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
