So nice we’ve done it twice
This was our second trip here. Caribou Lake is THE PERFECT place for kayaking as a family. The moon rise here is part of the reason we came back. There’s nothing like it. Take it in from a provided kayak or maybe bring your own canoe. It’s quite the drive from the nearest store, (45-50 mins) so plan to come prepared. Great spot for bird watchers. Loons, hawks, eagles and ducks having a ball. We plan to return in the next year or two as it’s a 5.5 hour drive for us. Worth it 2 Families of 4 kids aged 3-8.

A beautiful location right on the lake! The hosts were responsive to all questions, an 8-person tent was available and spacious, a propane grill was provided along with a picnic table, fire pit and other seating. There are a lot of things to do in the area and the hosts graciously provided information for local attractions. The bathroom/outhouse was very clean as well. We absolutely loved our stay and plan for a return visit! Great hosts, amazing location if you're looking to unplug and get away!

What a wonderful getaway! An awesome spot for people who want to completely disconnect. We cooked every meal over the campfire and saw moose, a lynx, bald eagles, and loons!

Wish we had stayed longer!
Amazing view with great tent site and fire pit with ample wood. So many little details: maps, fire starters, propane grill, kayaks. Clean outhouse! The sure was well maintained, and the lake was wonderful. We could’ve just stayed here all week!

The site was beautiful! We had a great time camping there for two nights. There was very minimal light pollution, it was easy to find with the directions provided. The site was right on the water, which was a blast with the kayaks they provided, and our dog loved it. And the outhouse was very clean and nicely made. There was multiple areas to sit and relax and a nice cooking grill over the fire. We all enjoyed our time and enjoyed seeing a moose on the way to the camp! Highly recommend for a nice, peaceful get away. (None of us saw any ticks which made this an even more peaceful experience!)
