Creature comforts
Enjoy the comforts of home at some sites—including flush toilets, showers, and a kitchen.
Located just 4 miles outside of Ely (on the edge of the Boundary Waters), Silver Rapids Lodge is located on a vast private peninsula with water on three sides, allowing for some of the best fishing around! We have electric/water sites, and full hookup sites available. Tent and van camping is fine by us. Bring your boat...bring your canoe! Heading in the boundary waters? We've got parking packages, too.

Lakeside RV Camping
Great spot right off the road. Traffic calms down at night and the bar is a great spot to hang out. I will definitely be back if I’m ever in the area again.

Very quiet spot to put our 17’ camper. Beautiful setting. Would definitely camp there again if we have the opportunity.

All sites were lakeside which I really enjoyed! Right across the street was the Lodge/Restaurant which served lunch and dinner and had regularly scheduled live music.

There’s a reason they have openings

Lakeside RV Camping
If you are desperate and there is no other place to stay, then sure. It is rustic and could be nice, but the lack of pride of ownership means grass is 10 inches tall, buildings are rotting and falling apart, and the fishing docks that they falsely advertise as having are all broken, rotted and lying on shore. In addition, there must have been hard rains earlier in the summer because most of the roads have foot deep washouts for meters- a massive broken leg and lawsuit waiting to happen!! And good grief- don’t walk into the lodge/bar and hope to get waited on. Went in to see about renting a kayak, and three people stood there. Two kept looking at me at the desk and turning away, and a third girl sat with her back to me playing on her cell phone. I assumed that the reason the other two didn’t help me was because it was phone girl’s job, but wouldn’t they at least tell her a customer was there?! Stood there for what seemed like an eternity (5 minutes) as they did nothing, and I finally had to interrupt phone girl’s scrolling to get help. Thought we’d stop over for a drink the next night and phone girl was working the bar. There were TWO people in there who already had drinks, and she couldn’t be bothered to wait on us. An easy $100 passed up for the business, and clearly she didn’t need the tips either. No problem- we saved money, and they have even less to invest back in their substandard business. This place needs a bulldozer, new facilities and definitely new workers!

Check in was easy. Everything as advertised. Enjoyed hanging out at the resort bar and eating pizza. All service interactions and other campers were very friendly. I would not hesitate to book again.

We really enjoyed our stay! Each site had its own water & electric hookup and fire pit. Beautiful lake views and easy access. Very clean and well maintained. Would absolutely stay here again.
