Fall Lake Campground is praised for its beautiful, well-maintained sites, friendly staff, and clean facilities, making it a favorite among campers. Many appreciate the private, wooded areas and proximity to hiking trails and the city of Ely. Some minor issues were reported, including occasional odors and the need for a nearby dump station, but overall, visitors enjoy returning to this peaceful and scenic campground.

The Fall Lake Campground is always wonderful. Clean and well maintained. Rix and Sherri are always so friendly and accommodating as are the other campground hosts and helpers. We have been camping here for 20+ years and so have some of our friends that we recommended the campground to. It is always nice to see some of the other regulars we have met over the years.
A class operation.

Staff/Camp hosts were very helpful and super friendly. All sites and facilities cleaner than any other campground I have been to. Excellent.
Be aware boat launch is busy with motorboats heading south or into BWCA at Fall Lake. I guess there are special permits, so you will have boaters zooming around near the campgrounds.

We have been staying here annually for over 18 years and have never had a problem with the excellent facilities. This year there were issues with the toilets and showers but the hosts did what they could to remedy the situation. They were very nice and worked hard to help us through our stay
