Weekend Trip to The Lodge & Cabin at Eagles Roost

The cabin was perfect—it had everything we needed right there. Bill and his wife were amazing, helpful hosts. I’d recommend this place to anyone and will definitely be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Two Bees & A Bud, Flower Farm Camp

If you're looking for tranquility, this campsite is a hidden gem. Nestled right on the lake, the views are stunning—especially at sunrise and sunset. The site was clean, well-maintained, and quiet except for birds and other animals. Definitely recommend for anyone who enjoys nature without the crowds. I can't wait to go back once the flowers are blooming to see the flower farm in full bloom!

Weekend Trip to Two Bees & A Bud, Flower Farm Camp

If you’re looking to feel like you have the entire woods to yourself, this is an excellent choice. Christine is a wonderful host- I arrived and my fresh farm eggs were waiting for me on the campsite picnic table! I brought way too much gear for a single overnight stay, but there is a handy heavy duty wagon right next to the grass parking area. It’s about a 5 to 7 minute level / easy walk to the single campsite, which is HUGE. We only used a small 3 person tent, but the pad could accommodate a mobile barracks. There’s a fantastic fire pit surrounded by several log seats, and firewood was provided! We feel asleep to a wonderful chorus ensemble including frogs, coyotes, and an owl. The campsite sits only a few hundred feet from a decent sized pond / lake- which contains so much wildlife! We woke up early and from our lawn chairs we saw trumpeter swans, a few common mergansers, herons, a great egret, ducks of all sorts, chipmunks, several deer, a muskrat or two, sandhill cranes, and a turkey! I will definitely be camping here again in the future and hopefully taking advantage of some of the unique offerings at this site (the eggs were delicious)!

Weekend Trip to Ham Lake Resort

The campgrounds were a very pleasant surprise. Very well maintained, clean, quiet at night, and the staff were all very friendly and wonderful (including maintenance guys who helped me with a plumbing leak issue). Nice petting zoo, dog play area, little beach on the lake, and trails around the grounds. Some RV spots are a little close together, but the overall grounds are large and spacious, so it didn't feel crowded. Kind of an under-the-radar hidden gem for the Twin Cities!

7 nights at Tiger lake Ranch

The property is pretty much open prairie land. I saw so many different types of birds to include eagles, water fowl, (didn't hear any loons but doesn't mean there aren't any) saw a few wildlife (deer, turkey, ground hog, a couple meadow voles. ) Andrew has a farm and there are a few horses and some very friendly goats, and super friendly dog. Andrew always answered my questions and was available if I needed anything. The farm is down a long dirt road which makes the stay very peaceful, quiet, and relaxing. Thanks Andrew for a great stay! I would stay again.

Weekend Trip to Two Bees & A Bud, Flower Farm Camp

I loved this campsite! It was so clean and cute, with a great view of the lake. There were swans every morning! The campsite itself had a nice fire pit, little lights, wood, a nice table, and stumps. The trails were nicely cut, and it was easy to get around. The family is so sweet and helpful as well! It’s close to town which is nice if you want to grab dinner, but it still feels like you are miles away. I will definitely be back.

1 night at Tiger lake Ranch

Everything about it was great, large oak trees and even a grill!
