5 Great Camping Spots In Minnesota

If you are looking to get away from it all and rest and relax amidst outdoor pursuits, then camping in the state of Minnesota in the northwoods of the United States, may be the ideal vacation destination for you and your family.

1.Ann Lake Campground

For those looking to combine a great camping experience with horseback riding or snowmobiling, then Ann Lake Campground will be perfect for your getaway. You can combine these activities along with premier camping and hiking in a state forest, rather than a state park setting. You can find Ann Lake Campground located in Zimmerman, Minnesota.

2.Crescent Lake Campground

If you are looking for a unique camping experience, then visiting Crescent Lake Campground in Duluth, Minnesota should be a top priority. You can find the campground right outside the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and lying east of the Sawbill Trail. Crescent Lake is suitable for motorboats, so it may be a drawback for those who really want to get back to nature. No two campsites are alike and it is perfect for those driving or walking in.

3.Hok-Si-La Campground

Hok-Si-La Campground can be found in Lake City, Minnesota near the banks of Lake Superior. There is a unique policy in effect here. You have just fifteen minutes to unload your gear from your car when you reach your camping area and get it out. You will have to park your car outside of the security gate and can only bring it back in again when you are ready to depart. The extra hike is well worth it as you can enjoy such activities as boating, birding, rock hounding and swimming. There is also a playground for the little ones on site. You may also want to hike along the nature trails and visit the interpretive center to learn more about this beautiful area.

4.Birch Lake Campground

Birch Lake Campground in Ely, Minnesota will appeal to fisherman for its ideal habitat for panfish, crappie, smallmouth bass, northern pike and walleye. Motorboats are allowed on the lake and noise could be a factor on the weekends for campers as many of the campsites are located right near the water with direct access.

5. Devil's Track Lake Campground

If you are looking for roomy and private campgrounds then Devil's Track Lake Campground in Grand Marais, Minnesota is the place for you. The sites are amazingly large on a huge expanse of grass. The large size of the sites allow for a true feeling of camping in the northwoods. The lake is also home to many sail boats and motor boats, but the campground is located on the western part of the lake so you can remove yourself from most of the activity found on the lake near Grand Marais.
