Flour Lake Campground is highly praised for its beautiful, quiet setting, with well-maintained private campsites and direct access to the lake, making it ideal for kayaking and fishing. Many campers appreciate the clean facilities and excellent hiking opportunities, particularly the nearby Honeymoon Bluff. However, some concerns were raised about high fees for additional vehicles and occasional issues with restroom cleanliness, as well as reports of disruptive behavior from other campers.

Great place for camping, fishing, & relaxing. We had numerous Snow Shoe rabbits hanging around. Our only complaint one day after the holiday weekend we had to go to golden eagle lodge to ask for toilet paper, out house was out for 2 days and then again at the end of our stay it was once again out for 2 days who knows maybe longer! When we went to ask how often they service the campground, they said everyday, and I told the girl that the outhouse had been out of Toilet paper for 2 days and she said well that is problematic! Duh! Try wiping without it! I thought the 1st time I would not say anything but then it happened again in the same week. I believe that when they service the campground daily that this would be routine, not just collecting the money, We are coming back in September of 2022 and hope that this won't be a problematic issue again. Thanks.

Vault toilets, no electric anywhere around, a strange drinking water supply system, dark campground, animals making noises all through the night. I took my girlfriend out for a late evening walk to some open space down by the lake hoping to catch the Northern Lights. She held on to my arm wiith a death grip. No show with the lights but got rewarded with the Milkyway. After camping at Goosebury Falls which seemed tame compared to the area of Flour Lake and the Gunflint trail.

The campground was not busy as its late in the season. Our goal was to see a moose, we did not succeed in that attempt. We did see the most wonderful colors of yellow and green with splashes of orange (not many maple in the area) as it was near peak color for the area. The lake views were spectacular. We hiked a number of paths off the Gunflint Trail and drove many miles on the dirt roads. We did see fox, beaver, ducks, geese, loons and many smaller birds.
The campground is nice we had site 22 which was long and level. Great walks down by the water.
Enjoy

The campground is about half way up the Gunflint Trail, making it close to many hiking trails and also about a 30 minute drive into Grand Marais.

Beautiful clean campground on beautiful cFlour Lake! Campground and hiking trails dotted with huge white pines. Campsites are good size and far apart for privacy. Dumpster was FULL every day, but emptied every day due to high use. Put toilets a bit stinky, but that’s expected in late season and high use. We’ll be back!!

The camp ground exceeded our expectations. The sites were large and surrounded by trees, separated from the other sites.
