For the price it’s great - not fancy by any means but you will be out of the elements and have a good sleep.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at River Road Campground (Blue Cabin) during a road trip, and I can't recommend it enough! The site is absolutely breathtaking, surrounded by stunning views that truly make you feel connected to nature. The campground itself is well-maintained and offers a variety of amenities that cater to both seasoned campers and newcomers. The spots are spacious and provide plenty of privacy, allowing you to relax and enjoy the serene environment. Additionally, the staff were friendly and helpful.

Blue Cabin was clean, comfortable and just what we needed for our trip across the country. Warm showers in a clean bathroom was a plus. Host was super responsive, sending the confirmation within minutes of our reservation. Great first experience with Hipcamp!

I loved staying in the Blue cabin on a stormy night. The campground is quiet, beautiful, and close to town, parks and a bike trail. The owners are nice and helpful.

I was in the blue cabin. It's private and wonderfully quiet. The walk to the bathroom wasn't a problem. I can recommend it.

If you are looking for seclusion , visit this campground in October , when Minnesotan's start to hibernate . The lake is a huge recreational lake in the summer months , a great family spot .
