Spirit Mountain Campsite

Clean grounds, warm running water in the bath houses, there's ice and firewood for sale in the check-in cabin. There's also miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, I did the Superior Hiking Trail twice over the weekend and it was great, tons of creek crossings, fairly easy without being overly moderated, just watch out for the bike crossings and don't mix up which trail you're on.

There's also miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, I did the Superior Hiking Trail twice over the weekend and it was great, tons of creek crossings, fairly easy without being overly moderated, just watch out for the bike crossings and don't mix up which trail you're on. The designated sites are a little bit more than I'm generally willing to pay to tent camp, but we set up in the field for just $30/night, which I think is fair so close to the city and with so many amenities.

Charged extra for an additional tent despite the whole camp site foot print being the reservation and I took the time to make sure the site would accommodate multiple tents. 😞 It was a good site with area to park a car and set up camp within the site.

Firepit and picnic table. Trails for hiking near the site. Adventure Park can be walked to from camp site. Bathrooms are heated and have three showers and the water is high pressure and gets warm but not hot. There was a Porta John on the side of camp where hard stand bathrooms were not.

Had a great time last weekend, we booked site #51, pretty large, with just electric and no water hookup. Bit of an incline to back the camper into its spot but it’s a nice tucked back site you could say, biggest downside is the only level ground on this site is right where the camper parks and then from there is pretty uneven and downhill. The fire pit is even more downhill and closer to the next... Had a great time last weekend, we booked site #51, pretty large, with just electric and no water hookup.

The fire pit is even more downhill and closer to the next site so if you’re looking for privacy by the fire I’d look at a different site, you can see in my pictures how close it is. Looked like each site does indeed have a picnic table and fire pit provided. Electric panel I will post a pictures of for all who are curious what hookup is like. All sites on that side by us were back facing the hillside just FYI. Bathrooms were about what you’d expect at a campground, nothing new, nothing super clean (forgot to take a pic), the rest of the campground was well kept though. Bonus is it’s dog friendly, just can’t leave the dog onsite while you are gone. We didn’t have time to explore much as we did most things around the Duluth area instead, but wish we had time to bring to kids for some activities at Spirit Mountain or go hiking on the trails. We would go back for sure!
