2 nights at The Camps at the Vineyards

This place is located on a beautiful piece of land. The directions are clear and campsites are well marked. There is some road noise as mentioned in other posts but The river was the crowning glory of this site! I would definitely camp here again!

1 night at Velkommen to Norske Camp!

Cool camp, there are lots of extra amenities on site, paper towels, charcoal, lighter fluid etc. Nice fire pit with all the tools you could need to stole the fire and cook. The outhouse was clean and had sanitizer inside. It's directly next to the Paul Bunyan trail so that is a plus. The owner was helpful and and sent me info prior to my visit and was available if needed. There was also a cool black cat named Boo that hung out with me, it was an unexpected bonus.

Weekend Trip to Harvest Loon Camp

We loved our stay at the cabin and hope to visit again

Weekend Trip to Harvest Loon Camp

The cabin is clean and cozy. The kitchen has everything you need - you don't need to bring any pans or cooking utensils. Important note: the description says that the bunk is a twin bunk. It is not. It is two full-sized beds (not queens), bunked one on top of the other. There is another bed in the other room which is a twin. The kitchen and bathroom have separate heating that was very warm. The main sleeping/living/dining room has baseboard heating and the wood stove, and that room was a little harder to get warm - bring warm blankets and sleeping clothes. It was very quiet, not many homes on the lake, and the cabin is far enough off the main road that we couldn't see or hear cars. We were able to find the cabin easily from the directions. We wished it was closer to hiking trails; like a lot of the state forests in that area it seemed that a lot of the trails are for ATVs or snowmobiles. But we will keep looking. We did get snow while we were there and got out on the lake in snowshoes which was wonderful.

3 nights at Harvest Loon Camp

Perfect combination of rustic cabin with luxurious creature comforts. We loved the main cabin for relaxing around the wood stove, but we also loved the luxurious modern bathroom. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Harvest Loon Camp

Harvest Loon Camp is a very secluded cabin that was perfect to disconnect for a short weekend. It is a nice mix of a rustic atmosphere with some modern amenities. We even had some decent cell service. We spent of our time hiking the nearby trails and catching up on our reading. Our German Shepherd spent most of her time napping and keeping warm by the wood fire stove. Thank you for a great getaway!

Weekend Trip to Harvest Loon Camp

We had a great time here! We were really impressed by all of the upgrades that have been made, while still keeping the original charm of the cabin. The wood-burning stove in the main room was a highlight and a cozy way to keep warm all weekend. We will return next year, maybe to watch the leaves change. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Weekend Trip to Harvest Loon Camp

We fell in love with this place! Charming and perfect balance of rustic and modern touches. We loved spending time at the fire pit outside and also chatting around the wood stove inside. The kitchen is well equipped and the added bathroom is great too. We loved reading about the history and comparing the old photos to what it looks like now. We want to come back every season!!

Weekend Trip to RV There Yet Campground

We loved the spacious sites, very private. The pine trees are beautiful.

Weekend Trip to RV There Yet Campground

Spirits of the Forest

13 sites · Lodging81 acres · Mora, MN

How we ended up in Knife Lake Township on 81 acres of forested land. We began looking for land in late fall of 1996. After several months of searching, we happened upon a tiny newspaper ad for 81 acres of land described as "Beautiful, secluded, mature hardwoods, tall pines w/creek & beaver pond, many gd bldg sites & great hunting". We toured the property, covered in almost two feet of snow, on a snowmobile in January 1997 and fell in love with it. We have been stewards of this piece of land for 25 years and are still enamored of its beauty and diversity. We are lulled to sleep by the sounds of owls and bullfrogs and the distant yipping of coyotes. Spring through fall we are often awakened by the rattling, honking of sandhill cranes and a wide variety of bird songs. Besides deer and lots of small critters, we've seen bear, bobcat, rafters of turkeys, quail, grouse, pheasant, owls, hawks and eagles. The sky, on a clear night, is breathtaking. We have always visualized sharing the land with others, so come and immerse yourself in this bountiful space.
