I have always loved camping here. I camp in a tent with no electricity and there is always a spot or two. Site 13/14 are a little bit off the main road but offers plenty of space for the kids to play and plenty of privacy. Very good administrators and a lot of wood for $5 per bucket.

We are from New Ulm and this is my favorite local campground only 45 minute drive. Very well maintained, decent size lots, just a walk to the swim beach and trails.. Just an all around awesome campground. The caretakers are both amazing and wonderful every time we have camped so dont let the bad reviews scare you.

Beautiful, peaceful campground! Pulled into site #24 on Friday afternoon. Bathrooms are clean. Two issues: 1. electrical and water hookup on site #24 are 39’ away from the closest point in the parking pad we could go. We ended up going into town to get another 25’ 30 amp cord. 2. Grass was not mowed recently and dandelions were calf height. We will be back, however, but on a different site. Beautiful, peaceful campground! Pulled into site #24 on Friday afternoon.

This was our first time at this campground. The host was really friendly. It rained in the morning so all the woods we purchased from the campground were a bit wet. One of the neighbor came over with their dry woods to help us start up. If you like fishing, this lake is filled with northern pikes and walleye. Not too many bass not sun fish, at least not from shore. Pros: - clean bathrooms - frien... This was our first time at this campground. The host was really friendly.

I had to stand in the shower with my 4 years old as she was too short for the sensor - lots of geese poop! - lots of mosquitoes!
