Past trip
in Hay Lake Basecamp Canvas Tent, MinnesotaThis was a fabulous spot for a long weekend trip! The tent was super cozy and clean, and it included a nice air mattress with bedding, a mini fridge, and a coffee maker insider (there is electricity, which was super convenient when needed). The site itself had great amenities like a picnic table, canoe/kayaks/paddleboards to use off of the private dock, and hammocks that were already set up for use. Really lovely touches like solar lights lining the path from the parking area to the campsite/the path to the bathroom and a bin with wood for the firepit. There was some occasional noise in the early mornings from people unloading their boats at the public lake access nearby (a couple hundred feet away from the tent with woods in between, you can see the cars from the campsite through the trees), but not too bad. There was also hunting fairly close by one of the mornings we were there if that's something that you or any dogs you might camp with are bothered by and you're visiting during hunting season. Overall this was a super nice campsite, we would absolutely return and recommend it!
Past trip
in Room With A View, MinnesotaGorgeous campsite- the views were stunning, and the campsite was nice and secluded away from the road. Very peaceful, and we'll happily go back again!
One note about finding the campsite- the side road that you can park on is actually on the OPPOSITE side of the main road from the trailhead leading to the campground. Took us a bit to figure that out, since there are also a couple trailheads that appear to lead away from the parking area at the bottom of the hill. So, if you park at the bottom of the hill, walk back up to the main road and then across it and west about 100 feet and you'll see the sign leading back into the trees!
Past trip
Site 1 - #2 & #3 Northern Lights Homestead
in Wooded Creek Farm, MinnesotaCan't say enough good things about our stay here! The directions to get there were spot on, and the hosts were friendly and welcoming from the moment we drove onto the property. The location was stunning, peaceful, and had the perfect balance between seclusion and not requiring us to backpack our belongings through the woods! We had our german shepherd with us, and this was an awesome spot for her first time camping. Room to sniff, but not overwhelming or too close to lots of other noisy campers. We would camp here again in a heartbeat, and recommend it to anyone looking for a lowkey, gorgeous trip!
