We had a spectacular view of the Boundary Waters and Canada from our campsite (8). However, our experience was tempered by noisy young kids on either side of us on the first night.

We absolutely LOVE Trails End. So peaceful and beautiful!! Site #8 has the most amazing view and my son loves to jump of the lower cliff into the water. I love sitting and enjoying the peace and quiet in the mornings with the foggy mist over the water, it's amazing! In the past I've never had any cell service with Verizon. This year I had an AT&T phone and did have 1 bar of service and was able to send text messages. Site #* is very rocky and near impossible to put stakes in the ground for a tent but the the view definitely makes up for it! Bugs can be bad at prime mosquito season but you have to expect that in Minnesota. There is a vault toilet just up the road from site #8 and it is always clean. There was one day it ran out of toilet paper but I had brought some so that was a non issue for us. There is also a water spigot at site #8 which is fantastic to have close by. If you are looking to hang a hammock there are not too many options with trees on site #8 as it is fairly open but there is just enough shade to keep us happy.

The best camping experience I’ve ever had. Great campground with the best views. We were at site #16 and have zero complaints. We wish would have stayed longer!. Highly recommend for anyone looking to camp in the north woods.

Someone is probably better than I am when it comes to the words that can describe this campground. My experience was quite memorable.
