Highland Ridge

Complete and utter false advertising, the pictures you had one your website of the campgrounds is extremely misleading. I meant to stay at site G and on the map it implies is private but when I arrived i realized that I’m only 30 ft away from campsite F and there’s another drive in site on the other side of the site that the map implies is much further away. Don’t waste your time here. The “lake” is pathetic and nasty and the overlook is pointless. There’s plenty of better options in Minnesota

We love this park. Great camping spots and the rangers are very helpful and friendly.

Spectacular camp. Scenery. Well separated sites. Camp layout was thoughtful. Clean bathrooms. Love those COE parks! Never disappointed.

We stopped for a couple nights. Was in Site #20. Had a nice view down to lake. Got a few hours of sun but mostly shade. Only about 3 spots will you get any sun Camp host was helpful. Shower house was clean. Water spigots are slow so filling up with water will take some time. There was a cheese factory a few miles up the road to grab some cheese curds. The bird noise can be deafening at times. We would stay again.

Very nice campground. Playground across from our spot. Didn’t check the shower house.

The campground was easy to find. My site was level. I had difficulty opening the door to the power. I small handle would have helped, I needed to use a screwdriver in a seam open it.

Site 33 was beautiful, backing up to a forested hill. It overlooked a trail and we were able to see some horses go by. Lots of shade. This loop is farther away from the full service bathhouse so be prepared to use what is essentially an outhouse or take a long walk. There is a spigot with water at the entrance to the loop.

Great facility. Clean restrooms. Camp hosts were awesome!

We had spot 18 which was full sun and for us was great for one night. I dont think any spot is level, But we figured it out. For COE land it was a great park! Dump station and fill station on the way in everything was great!

Perfect place to escape the Twin Cities for a few nights to be in the woods and away from civilization without having to go too far. Terrific hosts who shared some helpful information. Clean shower and restroom facilities. Generally spacious sites. The one hiking-only trail starting from behind the activity building needs some clearing. I didn't explore the shared trails for horses. The view of the reservoir from the lookout by the campground is now largely obscured by young trees. There is a clearing with a nice grassy area, large fire pit and a couple of picnic tables accessible from a path behind the activity building. The highlight from this early July visit was watching the moonrise through the clearing between sites 20 and 21, while the fireflies were all glowing in the brush all around.
