Downstream Campground (ND)

Beautiful location for camping! Lots of trees for shade and plenty of wildlife at dusk. Sites were spacious in most sites except first come first serve area where it was pretty close quarters. This area didn’t appear to really be first come first serve as the same small tent had been moved over different days to hold the prime spots. Exiting was more difficult for larger units and the wait time for clean out was long and complicated due to the stations location and the accessibility was tight quarters.

The beach and boat ramp and water access locations aren’t important to us but my son and his family would not stay here because they really aren’t convenient for on and off the water daily use.

Is beautiful campground, well maintained. I wish it would be open for few more weeks in September.

Nice level campgrounds, paved and relatively quiet. I would like to see water hook ups and would be willing to pay a little extra for them. The camp hosts this year were very nice and accommodating. They can make all the difference between a pleasant stay and unpleasant. Previous camp hosts have been rigid and unfriendly.
campgrounds are well kept and clean.

Our family loves to camp at Downstream Campground! Its honestly our favorite place to go. The camp sites are all spacious and clean, and the area is so peaceful. We feel comfortable letting our kids bike around the loops on their own because we can keep an eye on them the entire time. There are two playgrounds with swings and jungle gyms that the kids also enjoy. The nature path is beautiful and the sand dunes are so cool. The only down-side is that towards the end of June/July the mosquitoes can be bad, so we avoid the campgrounds during that time. The best time to go there is fall. :)

The check in was really a nice man who let us go pick out a site. Nice hiking trails. Quiet and away from major roads and trains. So a great nights sleep. Really great find.
