Winnie Dam Campground

22 sites · RV, Tent

Okay, so you probably can’t spell Lake Winnibigoshish, but you can spell F-U-N—and that’s what you’ll have at Lake Winnie Campground! The small-ish campground sits beneath the beautiful red pines and isn’t too far from the lake’s banks and the Mississippi River. Keep an eye out for campground critters like porcupines and chipmunks; they love to snatch up the ripe blueberries and blackberries that dot the forest floor!

Mike and Loellen discovered Ruttger’s Camping Resort in the winter of 2005 while driving around the area and scanning websites for trailers. We bought a trailer on a seasonal site and have thoroughly enjoyed our summers here ever since! Our sons grew up on the lake, boating and fishing and exploring the area and we have developed a wonderful lake-family. We have watched Bill and Candy Ruttger build the resort into the beautiful property that it is today and feel privileged to have the opportunity to now share it with you. Under our new ownership and with a new name, Sunset Pines MN in January 2023, we are eager to carry on the legacy created by our friends and mentors. We welcome you to enjoy our piece of “Up North” Minnesota lake-life with your family and friends, and don’t forget to enjoy a sunset or two! Mike & Loellen
