The Double J

Welcome to the Double J!

Of the 71 acres we own, about half is tillable and the other half is woods and pastures for our horses. Within that, there is a beautiful secluded 3-acre meadow nestled down along along a beautiful 1,200 foot stretch of the Zumbro River where we have 5 spacious tent/RV campsites.  While the campsites are all adjacent to each other along the river, they are each very spacious (the smallest being 100' wide and 75' deep), with some mature trees scattered around.  Each sites (except Site #1) is able to accommodate up to 8 people and more than one tent or RV.  There is a small meadow above all the sites where campers can play catch or other games.  We provide and maintain a centrally located outhouse and keep the entire area mowed throughout the year.  All sites offer great shade trees (perfectly spaced for hanging up a hammock) and access to the river - great for those hot summer days! 

Water activities to be enjoyed include fishing, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding and tubing (equipment not included).  Some campers will drop in upstream at the Covered Bridge Park and float down to their campsite.  The Zumbro River, especially in the fishing hole, offers great fishing including Trout, Small-mouth, Red-horse, and an occasional Northern or Sauger.

Campers are welcome to to meander out into our pastures to pet our two horses, Shiloh and Champ.  Also, we are just over a mile from town where you can visit Covered Bridge Park which has a Frisbee golf course and a nice play area for younger kids.

Reserving adjacent sites, or all of the sites, makes for the ideal setting for a large family or group camp-out.  In order to prevent overcrowding, we do reserve the right to limit number of sites, or campers per site based on overall parties/campers in the camping area.  We will notify you if there are any limits at the time of your booking.

We enjoy being able to share our property with others, and it is our desire to promote a safe, peaceful, family-friendly environment, therefore, be sure to note, we do have a NO ALCOHOL policy. 

PLEASE NOTE: Be sure to read the "RV Details" on the site information page as the road to the camping area may limit the type or size of RV due to a couple dips, a sharper curve, and it's steeper slope.   Also, keep in mind, we reserve the right to cancel any reservations due to heavy rains or floods that may require our sites some additional time to dry out sufficiently.

For updates and notice of last minute cancellations be sure to follow us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/DoubleJCamping

As is customary for most campgrounds, we ask that if you bring in your own firewood that it be kiln dried.  Dry firewood can be purchased for $5.00/bundle.  

TIP - Being we do not reimburse campers in the event of rain (unless campground is flooded or too muddy), we highly recommend campers take advantage of Hipcamp’s Weather Guarantee option when booking.  With Minnesota’s unpredictable weather it allows you to get reimbursed for any days it rains over a specified amount, even if you choose to stick out the rain!  The cost is very reasonable making it almost a no-brainer! 

Don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions!  We look forward to being able to serve you!

Twin Folk Farms

Previously a 100 acre&nbsp;century farm, this fertile land was tended to by generations of old time&nbsp;farmers. Their dairy cows pastured in areas which we now graze sheep.&nbsp; The restored quarry provided gravel for the nearby highway restoration and local projects.The property is currently a mix of hay ground, cropland, pasture, forest, and quarry. Twin sisters, Darla and Kayla,&nbsp;and their families live across the road from each other and own the surrounding 140 acres. They keep busy planting/tending trees, making hay, moving fence for grazing animals, operating a farm business called Twin Folk Farms (pastured meat, camps, etc), and raising their families.Learn more about this land:- This site is at the edge of a restored quarry, sheep pasture, and wooded hillside.- The site is tucked down a flat mowed path, so it feels very private and protected. -  You can hike up a path to the sheep pasture.

Kids under 16 camping with their parents do not count in pricing.

This campground is managed by Stephen and Molly on land owned by them and their father Ted.  In 1961, Stephen's grandparents bought this farm. In addition to farming they also operated a trail riding stable here. Over the years, the arable land has been sold, but we retained the wooded areas which are twice crossed by creeks.  About 30 years ago, a 60 acre county park bordering the south and west sides of our land was created.

We are very excited to host campers as a way to preserve and share this beautiful property.

The Split Rock!  This enormous feature is a granite glacial erratic.  It was deposited here as the Wisconsin Glaciation receded approximately 18,000 years ago.  
Its natural split is wide enough to walk through and the view from the top is excellent!

The terrain is mostly deciduous forest.  A creek meanders through the main camping area.
