Stayed in campsite #1 for 4 days, 3 nights with my mom. We absolutely loved it! The views of Baker Lake are very pretty and the surrounding pine forest is just beautiful! I checked out the remaining campsites and #4 was also great. I'd definitely stay here again 🙂🏕️

If the Sheriff and/or DNR person tells you a neighbor can run their generator all night, due to some arbitrary “medical exemption,” they dreamt up, ask them to show you where it allows medical exemptions on any website, (it doesn’t exist). Then ask law enforcement if the generator abusers are obligated to notify neighbors before setting up camp. Nope. “So, neighbors be dammed?” I asked the sheri...

Been going there since I was 4. Quiet and beautiful. Edit: This isn't a spot for the casual camper. There are bugs. There is NOT a flush toilet. There is no swingset for kids. It's not a sandy lake. This is a place for those who want solitude and no cell phone service (nothing on Verizon as of June 2020). Leave the noise at home and get ready to listen to birds, the wind, and maybe even a moose... Been going there since I was 4. Quiet and beautiful. Edit: This isn't a spot for the casual camper.

Leave the noise at home and get ready to listen to birds, the wind, and maybe even a moose (fall 2018 we heard lots of wildlife). There is a solar pump on site for water and there's a boat landing for BWCA access. Otherwise, pack out what you pack in (no garbage pick up).

Many more mosquitos were at Baker Lake than the surrounding areas when we were there. The campground is still a nice spot to camp.
