It would be nice to have a few more primitive camp sites available. Fall Lake is set up well for the RV crowd but isn't too good for tent campers and those planning to canoe the BWCA.

There so many wonderful experiences during the week we were at Fall Lake I know I won't remember them all. The staff at the campsite were the best! They were over the top focused on the clients that came there. I witnessed this for us personally, and for others that stopped in to the main building. Oh, and at the main building I found cookies and cupcakes that were baked the night before by the staff and set out for visitors to enjoy! Who does that these days? The staff at Fall Lake, that's who! And the facilities were always clean and ready. They were well maintained and very clean. A welcome sight for people simply wanting to enjoy camping, kayaking, campfires and some fellowship with friends. We will be back.

The park and host couldn’t have been any nicer. We where a little disappointed in the weather, but no fault to the park. When we return we would to love to take advantage of some guided fishing. Cleanest bathrooms we have ever seen in a Rv park. Definitely *****
