We had a great time. We heard a bear come into a campsite near us, but the trick is to put all your food AND coolers into your vehicle. My granddaughters did not like one of the bathrooms due to the smell but there were other choices! The path around the lake was a good hiking bonus

Campground provides wooded sites next to lake. Sites are spacious and private, but there are none with views of lake and access is minimal. Footpaths to lake are narrow and overgrown.

This is generally a pretty good national forest campground. It is well-maintained. Good for families, RVs, campers. Many people seem to come back here year after year. Tent pads at the sites are mostly gravel and dirt, fairly hard. Ample clean water available. Restrooms cleaned daily. There are several sites with easy access to the lake, for canoeing, and fishing. These sites, and a few others, that face to the south and west, get good breezes, air circulation around the campsites. Other sites can access the spots via paths. There is a well-maintained boat launch. Good firewood can be purchased at the nearby friendly Golden Eagle Lodge , who maintain the campground. They also have some provisions, some fishing lures bait, canoe rentals and souvenir clothing items.Hot showers are available in a clean bathroom, for $6..
Some scrap pine tree trimmings from thinning are available around the edges of the campground roads, and if they are browned, and dry enough, make decent kindling.
There are a few good restaurants, and a store, within easy short driving distance.

Stayed at a new site this time. I won’t tell you which because it was so awesome. The vault bathrooms were the best I’ve seen in my three trips here — please make a habit of spraying out the old single toilet at least weekly. It makes a huge difference for everyone.

Camp site was clean and nice - no issue here. However, there was a noisy family (kids and more - playing and yelling loud) near by that ruined the experience. Went on for several hours. Would have been nice if someone would have asked them the quiet down.

I was impressed with the lay out of the camp ground and how spacious most of the sites were. It would have been better without all the rain! But you can't control for that.

1st time camping since I was a child and it was such a great experience! Flour lake is such a great spot. Clear enough sky to see stars/galaxy, while still being close to a restaurant/stores for supplies and ideally located halfway (or so) up gunflint trail!
