The service is excellent and the campground and facilities are very clean and well-maintained. The pool is enjoyed by all of us and if it rains, they have a large event space set up with tables where kids can be kept entertained. They also have a daily schedule of things kids can do and if old enough, go do on their own giving parents a bit of a break. I highly recommend!

We had such a blast at Kiesler’s! The grounds are very clean and well maintained. The staff is super friendly and helpful. There are so many activities… the kids always had something fun to do. My only complaint is that the pool is way too small…. But other than that our stay was perfect!! Thanks Kiesler’s for making our stay so fun!

We enjoyed camping here in our RV over Labor Day Weekend. The pool is where we spent most of our time that has two different slides and a smaller pool for the littles. The grounds are clean and kept up well, the staff is friendly and helpful. This is our second weekend camping here and we will make it a yearly spot. The KC Treat shack had more food than the previous year and it was nice to be able... We enjoyed camping here in our RV over Labor Day Weekend.

The KC Treat shack had more food than the previous year and it was nice to be able to get ice cream for a mid afternoon snack.

Don’t go near the end of the season. The store was basically shut down. Nearly empty and even the refrigerator for the few items of liquid they had was turned off. The WiFi was shut down although they claimed it was accidentally. It’s a nice place and I assume during the heart of the season it would be nice but at the end they don’t seem to care about paying clients. They are just ready to get it...

Excellent camp site! The washrooms were top notch, large sites and location was central to our needs. For those who enjoy the stars the location on a cleAr night gives a view of the galaxy. The administrators were very thoughtful and offered great tips for newcomers! Would stay here again.

5 star campground. In the area for a fanily reunion, stayed for 4 nights. The only drawback was that the gameroom door was open in the morning and night when we left and returned to the campground. We had told the kids all weekend that we'd visit the gameroom and playground on Sunday afternoon after the reunion. When we got back, the door was locked, and the hostess said it was closed and wasn'... 5 star campground. In the area for a fanily reunion, stayed for 4 nights.

When we got back, the door was locked, and the hostess said it was closed and wasn't sure when it would open. That was disappointing, but we made our own fun and had a quarter scramble in the sand with the some of the quarters we would have spent at the gameroom. Lol

Great place to stay! owners are great! Very happy with the stay. ATV trails are close by. Has a small store onside. Peggy help us when we arrived. We didn’t have a 30AMP adapter and was provided with one to barrow. Very nice bathrooms.

We have been going here for 12 years and have a seasonal site. The grounds are well kept, they provide nice sized wooded lots for tents and campers. Electric and water are included in seasonal site prices, and are more competitive then others in the area.

We have been going here for 12 years and have a seasonal site. The grounds are well kept, they provide nice sized wooded lots for tents and campers. Electric and water are included in seasonal site prices, and are more competitive then others in the area. There is a playground for little kids, a game room, public restrooms with showers, and a dump station to empty the camper on your way out. The campground is close to the Munger and Soo line trails, and only a short 40 minute drive to Duluth. Its a great place to ride bicycles or 4 wheelers and side by sides. The owners and managers are the best! I highly recommend Red Fox for people who like to get out on the trails, sit around a fire at night, or be treated like family. There are no snobs, everyone is welcome, but quiet time is expected after 10pm!
