Trails End Campground

Great site, very clean. Beautiful view, quiet. Great access to paddle and enjoy the BWCAW!

I love this campground but it has gone down hill as of late. The campsite had litter and debris and the bathrooms were not attended other than dropping off toilet paper. Garbage bins were over loaded. Hopefully just a snafu in operations!

Garbage was overflowing. Outhouse needed to cleaned daily however we did not see that happening. The site that we stayed at where left cleaned.

1st time to Trails End Campground (site #26) - we used it as a 'one-nighter' for our jumping off point for our 4-day Boundary Waters canoe trip. It was a great location with the camping sites far enough away from each other for privacy - and exactly what you'd expect from a nat'l forest service campground - gravel tent site, picnic table, fire ring with water spicket and latrines not to far away from our site - nothing fancy. Campsite was labeled with our reservation along with the following day's user - this made it very clear who was supposed to in the site. We arrived on a very rainy late afternoon in early August - certainly made for a challenging camp set-up...but hey....it's the wilderness! For our one-night stay it was a quiet campground. If you want a great site overlooking Sea Gull Lake, choose Site #s 24 or 25

Sites 18 & 19 are great sites on the river. But, campers continually walk through thinking they are on the portage. Bumping their canoes on your tent in the morning, standing in your site asking “is this the portage?”. Better signage would alleviate that, making these sites more secure when campers are not there, and less invasive when they are.

Great campsites, well taken care of park. Highly recommended!

Beautiful location, great swimming and fishing! Staff was friendly and helpful when I inquired about the area, things to do, and renting a canoe. Unfortunately the trash dumpster was not far down the road from our site and occasionally the smell wafted our way. Also, walking by it on the way to the bathroom was unpleasant to say the least.

I love coming to Trails End. Clean campsites and quiet. My first sight someone had left a large blew stand alone tent that was placed over the picnic table that I wished wasn't there. I prefer the experience to be my own without someone leaving behind their "helpful" tent. The note left behind stated that the tent could be used or thrown away.

Site 4- really great campground

Very clean restrooms.
