Excellent secluded campsite. It was peaceful and quiet. Can hear the sound of the creek as you fall asleep at night. No cell reception. Short walk in to the site but they provided a nice cart that was very very handy for us. Beautiful short hike to Split Rock and the waterfall that was a highlight. Highly recommend this campsite and campground.

Wonderful property and a hospitable host! Campsite had plenty space for multiple tents. Didn’t get a chance to check out all the trails but plan to do so in the future. Would highly recommend. Thanks!

1 night at Belle Creek Bluff
It was a very sweet setting. We saw incredible amount of native MN woodland plants, and so many kinds of birds, butterflies, dragonflies, and had an amazing firefly light show both nights. The green canopy cabin was a perfect hangout, even in the rain. The only issue we had is we had to cross Belle Creek to get to the cabin, and after 2 days of heavy rain, the creek had a much stronger current and was quite a bit deeper than when we arrived, so the return was very tricky, even a little scary!

Perfect place to let down and rest. Beautiful creek you or the kids can walk down all day. I'm a repeat guest and can't recommend it highly enough. Just an hour from the cities.

Absolutely the very best spot! Quiet, secluded, and beautiful, I'll keep coming back year after year! The owners are amazing, and have gone above and beyond to make sure the site is safe, peaceful, and accessible. They were quick to address any and all concerns, and I can't help love this location even more for it!

This is an amazing spot to camp. JT has done a great job setting this place up. The kids really enjoyed getting accross Belle creek to get to the cabin. When we arrived the water was high. I brought a raft so I was able to get the kids and the gear across. I would definitely recommend this site and we will be back.

I highly recommend this Hipcamp! I stayed at Site 3 and looked at the others, three is the best for sure. There’s a drop in the stream there so the water is very audible, plus it’s the last site so it’s the most private between 1, 2, and 3. It also had some grass to put the tent on where the others looked to be mostly dirt, which is fine except if it’s raining. The outhouse is probably a 5ish minute walk away, and it has a sink with soap to wash your hands outside. You can walk into the regional park that the property is surrounded by, which is also nice. Note that cell service is terrible. I was there 6/14 and bugs were not an issue at all but it was drizzly out. Overall I would absolutely return!

Great little spot! We loved the sound of the creek the whole time, along with the coyotes and owls. The hosts are very friendly and they really do a great job with keeping the camp spots nice. With it being only an hour south of The Twin Cities we will definitely plan another trip here.

My family and I really enjoyed our site. My labradors especially loved being right on Prairie Creek. There’s a bunch of trails to access from the property which was awesome. The sites were well maintained and having a cart to bring our gear back was a great surprise. I would recommend this to anyone.

This campsite was amazing! 5min off the road but completely surrounded by woods. Could hear owls and coyotes at night. Easy access to Caron Park and the waterfall next door. The campsite was clean and taken care of and Stephen was very friendly. Definitely coming again!

We loved tent camping. The fire ring was easy to use and very safe. We hiked to the local county park with a beautiful but chilly stream. Overall, peaceful and lovely stay.

2nd time here at the Bluff. Very secluded besides having a few campers cross the creek and were in the meadow next to the cabin. Firewood has a great price at $1.00 per log, Venmo made it super easy to pay. Definitely will be coming back, thanks again JT.

We loved our stay! The sound of birds and the creek made it really peaceful. No mosquitoes, and the campfire kept the black flies away. The wagon was super helpful for moving our gear. The kids loved crossing the tree bridge to the island and playing in the creek. The only downside was that on one of the days, we had to listen to a mower running most of the afternoon, which broke the peaceful vibe a bit. But aside from that, the experience was great!

This was my first time using hipcamp. What a positive experience! Site 4 was perfect. It was private and spacious. Close to the trails that Steve has designed. My friends and I will definitely be coming back. Stephen greeted us our first day. Very pleasant and takes great care of his property.
