The best camping near Minneapolis with fishing

·

If you’re looking to camp near Minneapolis and want fishing right outside your tent, you have over 1,300 options to choose from. Most sites sit near lakes or rivers where the walleye bite at dawn, and you’ll often spot herons stalking the shoreline. Expect to pay around $30 a night, with some spots dipping as low as $25. Popular campsites like Atlas Ad Astra - Missile Silo (115 reviews) and Rusty Nickel Ranch RV (2 reviews) get high marks for clean toilets, pet-friendly policies, and fire rings ready for marshmallows. Off the water, trails wind through cottonwoods and open meadows—hiking, swimming, and wildlife-watching are all on the table. Pack your line, watch for bald eagles, and don’t forget your campfire stories.
