Nice campground. Would be nice to have hooks or shelves in shower areas to be able to put dry clothes on.

Space #9 was very nice. Had good shade for our 27 foot travel trailer. Restrooms and showers were clean. We stayed four days and enjoyed the park as well as the area shopping. Price was great using our lifetime senior pass. Highly recommend!

Small Corp of Engineers park on the Mississippi River. You can not see the river from the campground. There is an area immediately before the campground where you can fish the river. The sites are a gravel/dirt. They only have electric sites, which were for the most part level. The sites are shady and plenty of space between campsites. Very clean dump area. Get your gas, groceries and firewood before the park as there is nothing around. The town of Bemidji is about 30 minutes away.
