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.

Great campground. The sites and bathrooms are very clean. Lots of space between sites an the sites are large. Only issue is that the bathrooms have limited shower and toilet capacity so plan accordingly. Also, cell service was good at site 18. Three bars, but down to two bars by the lake. We have Verizon.

Easy to find and no check in made for less stress. Beautiful area. Wished we could have stayed longer!

We always enjoy our stay at Fall Lake Campground / State Park. The campsites are great and all facilities are clean and kept up to date. We hate to leave every year after our weeks time there.

This is a BEAUTIFUL campground! Very well kept, several bathroom/shower facilities well placed and clean, huge drive thru sites, nearly all are wooded and private, quiet, great paved roads in the campground for walking kids and dogs, great hiking trails, close to Ely for tourist activities, restaurants and shopping-Ely has a nice big park in town with a great playground if you need another place for kids to get more exercise! A good base if you fish or canoe and surrounded by more than you can count outdoor adventure opportunities. I LOVED it here. I will go back again and again! KUDOS to the employees for making this a hidden GEM in Northern Minnesota!

This was our first trip the the Fall Lake Campground, and will not be the last! Beautiful, quiet campgrounds with a lot of privacy between sites. The bathrooms were clean and the toilet paper stocked. The folks working the check in station/store were very nice and helpful.
