⛺️ Since 1949, we've been a family-operated resort & campground on Swan Lake in Fergus Falls, MN. We offer lakeside cabins, tent camping, and full hook-up, pull-through RV sites. Here, there is time to slow down, room to breathe, and lots to explore.
🏖️ Soak up the sun on the sandy beach, hike through the hidden trails, and take the pontoon out for a cruise. Be sure to turn the tech off and challenge a rival to ping pong, crack a cold one, and explore the water on stand-up paddleboard.
🍦 Bring the little ones and get messy at the arts & crafts table, catch a sunfish off the docks, and indulge in s’mores around the campfire. Don’t forget to show us what you got on the volleyball court and savor an ice cream at the camp store. Curl up in a hammock and get lost in a good book, smile at the flowers and gaze in awe at the night sky. Just be.

Enjoy a spacious 2-acre lakefront RV site in a natural Minnesota setting, perfect for spreading out and relaxing. The property sits along a quiet, dead-end gravel road, just a short drive from a paved county highway.
Please note: The lake bay directly connected to the site is shallow and weedy, so swimming is not recommended, and fishing from the shore or dock may be challenging. However, the scenic lake views and gentle slope to the water make this an ideal setting for your RV retreat.
Location Reference:
• ~25 miles west of Alexandria, MN
• ~90 miles northwest of St. Cloud, MN
• ~155 miles northwest of Minneapolis, MN
• ~95 miles southeast of Fargo, ND

• Mostly open, grassy lot with full sun exposure and a few small trees along the perimeter.
• Located ½ mile off a paved county road, with minimal traffic on a dead-end gravel road.

We stayed here with another family and had a ton of fun. We had a 27’ travel trailer and they had an ice castle. It wasn’t too bad to get them both situated and set up. Kids had a blast running around and biking up and down the long driveway. Very close and convenient to downtown DL for something to do. Quiet area, with minimal neighbors. Picnic table and fire pit were nice add one. Everything listed worked well and there were no surprises.

We had a very peaceful afternoon & evening hanging out by the lake with our pups. There were lots of birds. There is a neighbor pretty close and you can see a few of the neighbors, but they are far enough away to feel somewhat private.

This was our second time at Russell’s and its safe to say we will be back again! We had to cut our trip a day short due to some bad weather, and Russell was so kind to offer us a place to stay to ride out the storm. Can’t say enough good things about Russell, his hospitality and the awesome spot we cant wait to come back to soon!

The land is very beautiful. You have a beautiful view of the lake. It’s very private. There are other campers there, but they’re far away from you. The only drawback is you have to take your trash with you. But I believe it was worth it. Good price for what you get.
