Very nice campground close to the Boundary Waters. Quiet and well kept. It's next to a lake, and on a paved road. There is a fishing pier and a swimming area. I will be back!

Perfect jump off for our BWCAW trip. The campground was well maintained and it seemed most campsites were situated with significant privacy. Great experience

Campsite was very clean and well kept. The host was very kind. The area and lake are gorgeous.
Access to the lake from campsites was not the easiest and noise from the resort/rental cabins across the bay was pretty constant and louder then I wanted to be around on my "Northwoods" vacation.

Nice clean campground. If there was water available, I couldn't find it!

Small rustic campground on a peaceful lake near the BWCA. Some site maintenance was very well done since prior season. We go same time every year. Love it.

Beautiful site that appears to have been recently updated. Having the fire pit down the steps form the parking space created a great secluded site. Small trail for access to the lake from the site

Our group was astonished at the kindness, hospitality and concern of the camp hosts. They greeted us with tips on how to see the Northern Lights, took photos of our canoe venture at our request, and made special arrangements for us to stay an additional night. It would be hard to imagine a more gracious welcome, not to mention the amazing sites. Fenske is the perfect balance between rugged and glamping. The ideal gateway to the Boundary Waters. We will certainly return.
