Golden Acres Park

1 RV Site

On the crystal-clear shores of Square Lake in Washington County, just a short drive from the historic St. Croix River town of Stillwater, Golden Acres Park provides an intimate lakeside camping experience anchored by one of Minnesota's most celebrated natural swimming waters. Square Lake consistently earns recognition as one of the Twin Cities metro area's clearest recreational lakes—a deep kettle lake of exceptional water quality where the sandy bottom is visible well into the depths and the summer swimming ranks among the most refreshing in the state. Nine nightly RV sites with full hookups bring modern camping infrastructure to a serene lakeside setting that has attracted water-loving visitors to this Washington County property for decades. All nine nightly RV sites feature full hookup service with 50/30/20-amp electrical connections, water, and sewer on gravel pads, and high-speed Wi-Fi has been added for the current camping season throughout the park. Pontoon boat, paddleboard, and canoe rentals enable non-motorized exploration of Square Lake's pristine waters without requiring guests to arrive with watercraft, and swimming, boating, and fishing from the park's lakefront give the campground a full recreational identity. The park's small-scale, boutique character creates an atmosphere significantly more intimate than the large commercial campgrounds of the suburban Twin Cities, and returning guests often cite the combination of lake quality and personal service as what brings them back each season. Square Lake's exceptional clarity makes it one of the region's preferred destinations for swimming and stand-up paddleboarding—activities where water quality is visible and immediately appreciable rather than abstractly measured. Washington County's Square Lake Park adjoins the property and provides additional beach access and picnic facilities on the same remarkable lake, giving guests a combined recreational footprint that extends shoreline enjoyment across the full summer day. Fishing for bass, panfish, and northern pike in the clear water provides a rewarding angling experience in conditions where sight-fishing is possible during the calm morning hours when the surface lies undisturbed. Stillwater, one of Minnesota's most historic and charming river towns, lies a short drive west along the St. Croix valley and anchors a downtown district of Victorian architecture, independent bookshops, wine bars, and galleries that serve as the Twin Cities metro area's most beloved small-town getaway. The St. Croix River, a National Wild and Scenic corridor that forms the Minnesota-Wisconsin state line, supports canoeing, kayaking, and riverboat excursions through a bluff-lined valley that remains one of the upper Midwest's most scenic waterway corridors. William O'Brien State Park, along the St. Croix just north of Stillwater, provides hiking, camping, and river access in a protected state land setting easily reached for a half-day outing. The swimming and paddling season on Square Lake runs from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, with the clearest and warmest water conditions arriving in July and August. Fall brings spectacular color to the surrounding Washington County hardwood forests, and the Stillwater district's shops and dining remain active through October for guests who want the lake and the town at a quieter pace. Reserve early for summer weekends—the park's nine nightly sites fill quickly given the exceptional lake quality and the ease of Stillwater and Twin Cities access from this excellent Washington County address.

Big Rock Creek

15 RV Sites, 3 Glamping Sites, 1 Yurt

Big Rock Creek in Saint Croix Falls, Wisconsin, provides a natural, river-centered camping retreat on the banks of the St. Croix River in Polk County, where the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway's protected corridor delivers one of the Midwest's most pristine paddling and fishing environments in a landscape that has been federally protected since 1968 as one of the original components of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. Positioned at the gateway to the St. Croix River's upper segment, the campground serves paddlers, anglers, hikers, and nature-oriented travelers who prioritize the authentic river experience over resort-scale amenities. The campground accommodates guests in cabin rentals alongside tent and RV sites, with amenities calibrated to the outdoor recreation lifestyle the St. Croix River corridor demands: a general store for resupply, showers, bathrooms, Wi-Fi, firewood, and access to the river and a pond for fishing and non-motorized watercraft. Walking trails through the surrounding woodland and a playground serve guests whose camping agendas include both structured outdoor activity and the unhurried pace that river-adjacent camping encourages when the current of the St. Croix itself provides the day's primary entertainment. Pet-friendly policies welcome the outdoor recreation dogs that Wisconsin river camping characteristically attracts. The St. Croix River flows through a glaciated landscape of sandstone bluffs, clear cold water, and dense conifer and mixed hardwood forest that defines the visual character of the upper Midwest's most celebrated river corridor. The river's exceptional water quality—maintained by the restricted development that National Scenic Riverway designation enforces along both the Wisconsin and Minnesota shorelines—supports wild trout populations in the cold upper reaches, walleye and smallmouth bass in the middle river sections near Saint Croix Falls, and the canoe camping culture that has made the St. Croix one of the Midwest's most beloved paddling destinations for multi-day river trips. Interstate State Park in Saint Croix Falls, the oldest state park in Wisconsin, protects the dramatic Dalles of the St. Croix where the river carved a spectacular basalt gorge with glacial potholes carved by swirling boulders in the receding glacial meltwater—a geological display accessible from the park's trail system directly above the river. The Gandy Dancer Trail, a 98-mile multi-use rail-trail extending from Saint Croix Falls north to Superior along a converted railroad grade, provides biking and hiking access through the wooded Polk and Burnett county lake country. Minneapolis and Saint Paul are accessible approximately 60 miles southwest. Big Rock Creek operates seasonally from spring through fall in northwestern Wisconsin's four-season continental climate, with the St. Croix River's paddling season typically running from May through October and the best water levels for canoe and kayak descents occurring in May and June when snowmelt sustains the river's flow. Summer's warmth drives peak demand for river swimming and family camping in the clear St. Croix waters, and fall's hardwood foliage transforms the river corridor into one of the upper Midwest's most scenic landscapes through October. The campground's riverside character and proximity to Saint Croix Falls' outdoor recreation amenities make it a natural choice for paddlers planning St. Croix River multi-day descents.

Canary Beach Resort

6 RV Sites, 12 Cabins, 10 Tent Sites

Canary Beach Resort on Lake Villard in Villard, Minnesota, has been crafting family vacations since 1920, making it one of the longer-operating lake resorts in central Minnesota's vast lake country and bringing more than a century of accumulated hospitality knowledge to the combination of RV camping, lakefront cabins, and vacation homes that form its current accommodation mix. Recognized by regional travel publications as a Reader's Choice award-winning property, the resort's longevity reflects the consistent quality and the genuine lake culture that keeps families returning to Lake Villard across generations. The resort's accommodation variety spans the full spectrum of lake vacation preferences, from RV sites with full hookup connections for self-contained campers to lakefront cabins with direct water views and vacation homes for groups and extended family gatherings that need more space and privacy. A waterpark adds aquatic programming beyond the lake itself, and a mini-golf course, boat rentals, and paddle boats provide recreational infrastructure for guests at every age and activity level. A general store, laundry, clubhouse, shuffleboard, and volleyball round out a facility profile that has been built over decades to serve the full range of needs that multi-day lake resort guests bring. Lake Villard occupies a position in the Leaf Hills region of west-central Minnesota, a glacially created landscape of rolling moraines, scattered wetlands, and the chain of interconnected lakes that has made this part of the state synonymous with Minnesota's iconic lake country identity. The lake's clear water and wooded shoreline support populations of walleye, northern pike, bass, and panfish that attract anglers to this corner of Stearns and Pope counties, and the surrounding agricultural countryside gives the landscape a pastoral character that softens the natural wilderness of the surrounding lakes and wetlands. Glenwood, the Pope County seat approximately 12 miles east of Villard on Lake Minnewaska, provides the nearest full-service commercial amenities including grocery stores, hardware, and dining for guests making resupply runs during lake vacation stays. The Glacial Lakes State Trail and Lake Minnewaska's public recreation infrastructure provide additional outdoor recreation options in the immediate vicinity, and the broader central Minnesota lake district extending from Alexandria to Willmar encompasses hundreds of accessible lakes within easy driving range of Villard. Alexandria, approximately 25 miles north, anchors a regional tourism hub with additional dining, shopping, and the iconic Big Ole Viking statue that marks the community's Scandinavian heritage celebrations. Canary Beach Resort operates seasonally from late spring through early fall in the central Minnesota climate where the lake swimming and fishing season is concentrated in the warmest months. July and August represent the highest demand, when Minnesota's lake vacation culture reaches its annual intensity and multi-generational family groups fill the cabins and vacation homes for week-long stays that are the resort's traditional booking pattern. The property's century-plus operating history, lakefront cabin inventory, and the accumulated tradition of families who return annually give Canary Beach a community character that newer properties cannot easily replicate.

Hidden Meadows RV Park & Campground

35 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

Hidden Meadows RV Park and Campground sits along the middle fork of the Zumbro River in Pine Island, Minnesota, about 15 minutes from Rochester and the Mayo Clinic—a location that makes it unusually practical as both a destination camping park and a home base for families with medical appointments at one of the world's most visited healthcare facilities. The hidden meadows rv park balances that practical function with genuine recreation, set among the wooded creek valleys of southeastern Minnesota's driftless landscape. Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp service accommodate all rig sizes, and the park offers back-in, pull-through, and long-term site options for guests whose stays extend from weekends into months. A camp store stocked with groceries, ice cream, and firewood, 24/7 showers and laundry, a fenced dog park, playground, and basketball hoop provide the daily-use amenities. The recreation hall steps it up with pool tables, ping pong, and an arcade, and outdoor games throughout the property—Giant Jenga, Giant 4 Across, bean bag toss, volleyball, and horseshoes—keep guests active without requiring a drive anywhere. Walking trails along the Zumbro River and access to the nearby Douglas State Trail round out the natural recreation options, and the park hosts organized activities and events through Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day weekends. The Zumbro River valley around Pine Island is part of the Minnesota Driftless—a landscape of steep wooded bluffs, cold trout streams, and farmland that escaped the flattening effect of the last glaciation and retained the varied terrain that defines southeastern Minnesota's character. Pine Island sits in Goodhue County between Rochester and the Twin Cities, close enough to both to serve as a practical base and far enough into the countryside to feel genuinely rural. The river trail through the campground is the heart of the property, and the sound of the Zumbro moving past wooded banks sets the tone for an experience more focused on natural setting than programmed entertainment. Rochester is a 15-minute drive and provides not only Mayo Clinic access but also the full amenity set of a mid-sized Minnesota city—the Rochester Art Center, the Plummer Building's historic interiors, a walkable downtown with excellent restaurants, and the Quarry Hill Nature Center for additional trail and natural history access. The Douglas State Trail follows an abandoned railroad corridor through the countryside connecting Pine Island to Rochester, providing a flat, paved multi-use trail that is ideal for cycling and walking. Whitewater State Park, about 40 minutes south, protects some of the most dramatic bluff-and-valley terrain in Minnesota and supports trout fishing in Trout Run Creek. Hidden Meadows RV Park operates through the Minnesota camping season with peak activity from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Long-term site availability makes it a reliable option for Mayo Clinic patients and families whose medical situations call for extended stays in the Rochester area—a need that the Rochester camping market serves less consistently than might be expected given the city's national medical draw. Weekend campers benefit from the organized activities and river access, while long-term guests appreciate the practical amenities and the natural setting of the Zumbro corridor.

Hidden Shady Nook

3 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

Perched on the spring-fed shores of Pike Lake in Wisconsin's Chippewa County, Hidden Shady Nook delivers the kind of lakeside escape that makes you want to cancel your checkout date. The resort spreads across 800 feet of shoreline on Pike Lake—a 200-acre, 38-foot-deep gem known for clear water and excellent fishing—positioning it as one of the most distinctive camping experiences in central Wisconsin. Cornell, a small town tucked into the rolling Chippewa River valley, serves as the jumping-off point, and the surrounding forests of the Wisconsin Northwoods provide a backdrop that shifts from emerald green in summer to blazing color by fall. Twenty-five RV and camping sites plus four lodging options give guests plenty of ways to enjoy the lake, from full-hookup spots to comfortable overnight accommodations. Thirteen fishing docks, a private boat launch, and kayak rentals keep water lovers busy from first light to sunset, while the onsite restaurant—famous for Friday fish fries, Saturday ribs, and Sunday brunch—means you never have to drive far for a memorable meal. Live music performs on the lakefront deck throughout the summer, the pole barn hosts activities and events, and UTV and ATV trail access opens the surrounding forests to exploration. Boat storage, a dog park, and a playground round out an amenity list rarely matched at a lakefront resort of this size. Pike Lake itself is the star of the show—spring-fed and exceptionally clear, it supports strong populations of walleye, bass, and panfish that draw anglers from across the Midwest. The resort's 800 feet of private shoreline gives guests direct access to a sandy beach for swimming, paddling, or simply sitting with a cold drink watching the loons drift by. Surrounding the property, mature hardwoods and conifers filter the light and provide the natural canopy that gives the resort its name—shady, quiet, and genuinely tucked away from the noise of everyday life. The Ice Age National Scenic Trail traverses the property itself, offering guests access to miles of hiking through terrain shaped by the last glaciers to push across Wisconsin. The trail winds through kettles, drumlins, and moraines that tell the story of a landscape still bearing the marks of its glacial past. Beyond the property, the Chippewa River corridor provides paddling, and the surrounding forests offer birding, hunting, and wildlife watching throughout the seasons. The city of Eau Claire, with its vibrant arts scene and full range of dining and shopping, lies less than an hour west for those who need an urban fix between lake days. Hidden Shady Nook shines brightest in summer when live music floats across the water and the fishing is at its peak, though the fall walleye run draws dedicated anglers well into October. Spring arrives early on the lake and brings migrating waterfowl and the first warm evenings perfect for dock sitting. The resort's combination of waterfront access, on-site dining, live entertainment, and trail access makes it rare among Wisconsin campgrounds—an all-in-one destination rather than just a place to sleep. Book your site on Pike Lake and discover why guests return to Hidden Shady Nook year after year.

Split Ridge Campground

10 RV Sites

Set in the lake and forest landscape east of Lake Holcombe in Chippewa County, Wisconsin, Split Ridge Campground offers a wooded retreat built for guests who want a quiet, well-maintained northern Wisconsin camping experience with direct access to some of the region's most productive fresh water fishing and paddling resources. Shaded sites with gravel driveways provide a stable and comfortable surface across multiple site types, and the campground's relaxed and community-oriented atmosphere gives it a character that rewards repeat visitors who return season after season for the combination of wooded solitude and water access. The campground's signature amenity is the Turtle Club—an open-air shelter constructed over a small pond with turtles, providing an informal gathering space with a distinctly Wisconsin character. A horseshoe pit, fire rings at each site, and additional outdoor game areas give guests recreational programming without leaving the campground grounds, while full hookups, Wi-Fi, laundry facilities, and clean restrooms and showers handle the practical infrastructure of a comfortable multi-night stay. Firewood is available on-site, and the general campground character favors a relaxed outdoor pace appropriate to a northern Wisconsin forest setting. Lake Holcombe, the primary water body in the immediate area, is a reservoir on the Chippewa River formed by a hydroelectric dam that creates a productive freshwater fishery for walleye, muskie, largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, and bluegill. The lake's connected bays and wooded shoreline offer excellent kayaking and canoeing conditions for paddle-oriented guests, and the boat launch infrastructure on Lake Holcombe provides straightforward water access for guests arriving with their own vessels. The adjacent Chippewa Flowage—one of Wisconsin's largest and most productive natural lakes—is accessible within a short drive and represents one of the premier muskie fishing destinations in the upper Midwest. The forested landscape of Chippewa County surrounding the campground is characteristic of northern Wisconsin's mixed pine and hardwood lake country—a terrain of glacially deposited ridges, kettle lakes, and river systems that defines the outdoor character of this portion of the state and provides habitat for white-tailed deer, black bears, eagles, loons, and an exceptionally diverse freshwater fishing community. The Tuscobia State Trail, a converted railroad grade extending through the region, provides a long-distance hiking, cycling, and snowmobile corridor for guests seeking off-water recreation in the surrounding forest landscape. Split Ridge Campground is open through the northern Wisconsin warm-weather season, with the lake and forest environment most accessible from late spring through early fall. Fishing season on Lake Holcombe and the Chippewa Flowage drives consistent weekend demand from opening in early May through the fall walleye and muskie peaks of September and October. The fall color season in Chippewa County's mixed forest landscape is particularly beautiful, and leaf-change weekends in late September and early October represent a popular shoulder-season reservation window. Advance booking for summer holiday weekends and the peak muskie fishing season is recommended for guests with preferred site locations in mind.
