Didn’t appreciate the A Class RV across from us in space 12, running their generator for multiple hours in the early evening. In a small campground like this one, generators should not be run during the supper hours.

Trail's End Campground is a stunning location for anyone wanting to easily explore the BWCA. Most of the sites had amazing water access and views, and the small rapids running along the sites make it a very special campground. I'll definitely be back.

Beautiful campsite. We love going to trails end because it feels about as remote as you can get without actually traveling into the actual wilderness.

We ABSOLUTELY love this location, it's literally one of our favorite campgrounds. With that said, the pit toilets there are just minimally cleaned. They are the least pleasant of all of the USFS campgrounds we've been to in MN. No hand sanitizer, no waste basket, an abundance of flys and cobwebs. For this reason, and this reason only, I've given Trails End Campground a 4 instead of 5 stars. We'll still camp here but it would really be nice if more attention was given to the latrines.

Space #2 was rented for a week,but they did not show up. A shame that that beautiful campsite from8-23 to 8-31:was not used by anyone. A C Johnson rented it but did not show up. We used space #7,very nice.

Trails End Campground set my standards for any campground I encounter in the future. This was a wonderful first experience with camping. The rapids were extremely peaceful, and the area felt secluded even with a site next to us. We will be back!!
