Amazing campground, well cared for and quiet. Bathrooms were clean, and not busy as there are multiple facilities throught the area. Sites are spacious, and private - everyone we met was kind and offered to assist with anything we needed. Beach, park and walking paths were well taken care of, and the perfect size for our kiddos.
Everyone in town was great, bear center was a hit and planning to return next summer to the wolf center. Hike to the local falls was easy even our toddler made it. Absolutely no complaints and one of the nicest campgrounds we have visited.

We rented canoes from Packsack and they delivered them right to the fall lake entrance point with the motor and paddles. We stayed at the fall lake came site and found that to be a very quiet and pleasant experience.

The campground is clean and well maintained. The bathrooms are excellent. Ely is only 8 miles away and there is fun stuff to do there. Ideally located for serious fishermen with their own motor boats. Numerous lakes nearby.
