Beautiful, spacious sites. We had 50amp electric. Water spigots were located conveniently throughout the campground. Dump station too. We rode 2 segments of the Mesabi Bike Trail. Very nice.

very nice campground with good spacing between sites. Amazed to see turtles laying eggs at our site. Traffic is a little noising during the day but quiets down at night. There are trains also but only 2 in late afternoon.

We love this Campground however we have noticed over the past few years that other Campers are not following the rules and the Rangers do not seem to care. People are parking and setting up camp on the grassy areas where it is not allowed. There have been more than 2 vehicles per site and they do not fit so they park them on the grass outside of their site. This makes it difficult for other Campers to drive in and out of the Campground. Dogs have been left off their leashes and some have been left outside all night long.
