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.
