Campground was excellent. This was my 46th consecutive Mn fishing opener on Winnie. The boat dock in to the lake was installed on the the wrong side, making it difficult to back a boat trailer in to the lake. It was also causing the lake to wash out along the side of the ramp.

The trip this year wasn't so great as we had LOTS of thunderstorms and huge amounts of rain. Ended up cutting our trip short. It would be nice if the campsites were mowed more frequently - especially #13. This is the site we really like but every year that we get there the grass definitely needs mowing. We love camping at Winnie and will definitely be back again next summer.

A lot of the campsites have been allowed to grow up with brush and grass. The picnic and bathrooms by the boat landing have been closed down. The lagoon got filled in. It’s just not as inviting as it was a few years ago.

Campsite was very nice, beautiful scenery. However there was no host so therefore no firewood to purchase - not a huge deal. The big thing for us was that there was a very large group a few sites over, maybe 15 people between two sites, that partied loudly until about 2/3am every night. Very rude and with no host there our request to them to be quiet after 10pm went unanswered.

There was no campground host in the campground and a tree fell down in our campsite which never got removed all week. Overall was a fair week. They finally mowed and lifted the docks after some phone calls and internet threads about the mowing.

Grass had not been mowed for weeks if not longer. Pads for tents in campsites are not being maintained.

Love this place. Not much for “amenities” but that is why I love it. Quiet, clean, abundant nature.

Love this campground. Like the size of the campsites and the privacy they provide. Lake sites are awesome. Due to the dry weather this year there was no problem with unmowed grass which we have experienced in the past and this is the main thing I think could definitely be improved upon. Mowed grass in the campsites is a BIG plus in my book. But overall would recommend this campground to anyone who wants to just lay back and relax and listen to the song of the loons.
