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.

Firewood bundlegood

$5.00

Bring the graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate and leave the firewood up to us. Gather around the fire and enjoy your stay! This is an oversize bundle of misfit pallet wood. It is mostly Oak with some Ash. This is Amish cut and is not treated. It is dry and lights and burns easily, but not too fast. No popping and snapping like pine, just a nice burn.

This campsite offers a spacious and peaceful environment, perfect for those seeking tranquility by the lake. Guests appreciate the large, well-maintained grounds and the privacy it affords, with many noting the presence of open spaces ideal for pets and activities. While some mention the occasional noise from a nearby train or neighbor's music, overall, the site is described as quiet and relaxing. A few reviews point out minor inconveniences like bugs and off-leash dogs, but these seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.

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.

We absolutely loved this private site! It was perfect to play fetch with our dog and hang out by the camper. We also drove down to the beach and went for a swim! It was great and would definitely come back to this site again.

The site was nicely mowed and very inviting. Kids loved flying kites in the wide open space. Definitely will be an annual spot.

Great place to camp! Was a good chunk of land plenty of room for us to camp in our tents and be spread out!. Wasn’t too loud either neighbor was a very nice older man he stopped by to say hi and invited us over to sit In the shop and listen to music with him. Lake is pretty weedy and muddy but if you go out by the tree that’s in the lake it gets pretty sandy and is only about waist deep. Overall great experience and would definitely go back again!.

It was a nice flat open lot. There are no campers on either side of you. The neighbor to the west played a little music in the evening in his garage but it wasn’t too loud and it was from the 60’s and 70’s which I enjoyed.
