31 sites · RV, Tent

Tamarack Point is as scenic as campgrounds get.

The campground hangs out on top of the tall bluffs above Lake Winnibigoshish (aka Lake Winnie) and provides campers with some downright incredible views of the lake and the forest. But, there’s one catch—it’s only open from May 1st until right after 4th of July. So, gather your best buds and make those camping plans early! You won’t want to miss out this fantastic campground. You might just feel like you’ve discovered the next big thing in campgrounds.

Sunset Pines MN

71 sites · Lodging, RVs50 acres · Backus, MN
Mike and Loellen discovered Ruttger’s Camping Resort in the winter of 2005 while driving around the area and scanning websites for trailers. We bought a trailer on a seasonal site and have thoroughly enjoyed our summers here ever since! Our sons grew up on the lake, boating and fishing and exploring the area and we have developed a wonderful lake-family. We have watched Bill and Candy Ruttger build the resort into the beautiful property that it is today and feel privileged to have the opportunity to now share it with you. Under our new ownership and with a new name, Sunset Pines MN in January 2023, we are eager to carry on the legacy created by our friends and mentors. We welcome you to enjoy our piece of “Up North” Minnesota lake-life with your family and friends, and don’t forget to enjoy a sunset or two! Mike & Loellen
