64km from Fergus · 10 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Detroit Lakes, MN
This old homestead belonged to my belated brother Steve, and after he passed unexpectedly, we decided to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere for those interested in sharing a peaceful and modest property. The old barn is a work in progress to eventually become the base to accommodating more travelers and outdoor enthusiasts as finances permit. My son Logan, after having worked in the service industry bartending for 14 years and hosting 100+ global travelers via CouchSurfing out in San Diego, is well-versed in creating an inviting space, enjoying the merits of hard work through the hospitality industry. We look forward to meeting you and sharing/swapping stories around the campfire! Learn more about this land: Our property and profile are in constant change as we are in a stage of development, but we look to share our land with those seeking to enjoy a warm, welcome environment for those fellow wanderers, outdoor enthusiasts, vagabonds, and globetrotters. Logan is a well-traveled backpacker and together we share 5 1/2 acres here in a bustling little touristy town. We enjoy the company of those who endorse small footprint, sustainable practices and like to establish meaningful connections.  All we ask is that you respect the property, our neighbors, and make an effort to add one more new friend before you depart.

⛺️ Since 1949, we've been a family-operated resort & campground on Swan Lake in Fergus Falls, MN. We offer lakeside cabins, tent camping, and full hook-up, pull-through RV sites. Here, there is time to slow down, room to breathe, and lots to explore. 🏖️ Soak up the sun on the sandy beach, hike through the hidden trails, and take the pontoon out for a cruise. Be sure to turn the tech off and challenge a rival to ping pong, crack a cold one, and explore the water on stand-up paddleboard. 🍦 Bring the little ones and get messy at the arts & crafts table, catch a sunfish off the docks, and indulge in s’mores around the campfire. Don’t forget to show us what you got on the volleyball court and savor an ice cream at the camp store. Curl up in a hammock and get lost in a good book, smile at the flowers and gaze in awe at the night sky. Just be.

Sweet teepee setup on private deck tucked in the trees. Close to porta-potty and community fire pit. Came with pillows, bedding, lights, electricity, fan, heater, and even a fly swatter. Host stopped by on 2nd day to remove leaves from deck. Hosts attentive and friendly.community spaces outstanding! Shared fridge/freezer and Venmo snack pantry. Perfect hip camp.

We had to go back again before it starts getting cold! I have a tiny dog named Bean who’s favorite thing is now finding acorns and convincing everyone she’s part greyhound by running everywhere she possible can. 💚🫘 The bed is super cozy, and i feel like ‘cozy’ pretty much sums up the whole experience.

Dave was a great host, communicative, friendly, and punctual. Showed me around when I got in and offered me a cup of coffee and friendly conversation before I left. The campsite was well stocked, would have stayed longer if I could because the barn offered a cool hangout and the tents mattress was super comfy. It was raining while I stayed and the putter patter on the roof of the tent while was perfect for sleeping.

Tent camping at Tumbleweed was simple, peaceful, and exactly what I needed. I loved being surrounded by green grass that felt like a soft meadow, wildflowers in bloom, and the surprise of cool mushrooms scattered throughout. The biodiversity of the ecosystem was beautiful to witness. I came for solo respite and retreat—and left feeling refreshed, grounded, and renewed.

This was a quaint place very well placed to give seclusion yet close enough for any need. I will be excited to see how they continue to grow as I will definitely return. I will say having a communal grill would be a great upgrade.

Staying here was such a delight! Everyone was so kind and welcoming, including JuJu the cat :) We had a wonderful time getting to know everyone and exploring the space. We stayed in the TeePee and it was very cozy. The lights were a great added feature! The barn had so much character and it was clear that lots of love was put into this campground as a whole. 100/10

We felt so welcome, and everything was super cozy and clean. The teepee is on a raised deck with comfortable flooring inside and a wonderful king-sized mattress furnished with sheets, blankets, and pillows. The teepee has electricity run to it as well! For more creature comforts, the barn is only a short walk away. If you’re bringing a lot of equipment, they will lend you a wheelbarrow to move supplies as it is a short walk over lightly hilly grass to the teepee from the parking area. Definitely pay attention to the instructions they provide about how to get to the site without taking a super long gravel road as Google Maps may direct you to do!

We booked this spot last minute and we're glad we did! It was so welcoming, clean, and cozy. The hosts were so kind and made sure we had everything we needed. There's a shared fire pit, so it's perfect if you're trying to meet fellow campers. Great spot for troll hunting as well!
