Canary Beach Resort

6 RV Sites, 12 Cabins, 10 Tent Sites

Canary Beach Resort on Lake Villard in Minnesota offers 6 RV sites, 12 cabins, and 10 tent sites in central Minnesota's lake country, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 42 feet. A single back-in category joins a water park, splash pad, outdoor pool, mini-golf, beach, and boat rentals. Six back-in sites carry sewer and electric on 30-amp with site WiFi, sized to 42 feet, with picnic tables and BBQ pits. Confirm water service with the resort when you book, and note that service is 30-amp throughout. One consistent category means no guesswork. Twelve cabins and 10 tent sites make this predominantly a cabin property. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, and RV storage handle the practical side. A water park, splash pad, and outdoor pool anchor the summer, with a lake, pond, and beach supporting boating, paddle boats, paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, fishing, and inflatable water toys. Mini-golf, a fitness center, clubhouse, game room, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, pavilion, basketball, volleyball, shuffleboard, and horseshoes fill the rest, with live music and productive birding. Wine tasting is nearby. That amenity list at six RV sites is remarkable, and the resort has been crafting family vacations since 1920 — more than a century of accumulated hospitality in one of Minnesota's densest concentrations of lake country. Lake Villard sits in the Alexandria chain area, with Glacial Lakes State Park and dozens of fishing lakes within a short drive. Summer is the short, intense Minnesota season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Big Foot Resort

23 RV Sites, 9 Cabins

Big Foot Resort in Alexandria, MN, offers 23 full-hookup RV sites and 9 cabins, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites come as back-ins and pull-thrus, each carrying water, sewer, and electric. The 40-foot maximum makes this a mid-size-rig resort rather than a big-coach property. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, and a storm shelter are on the grounds — the last one is worth knowing about in this part of Minnesota. Cabins give larger groups a way to book together. The lake drives everything: a boat ramp, boat docks, and boat rentals for fishing, boating, and water sports, plus a swimming beach, an outdoor pool, mini-golf, a basketball court, and a playground. Biking and a state park are close by. Alexandria sits in Douglas County in the heart of west-central Minnesota's lake district, where the prairie meets more than 300 lakes and the walleye fishing and lakeshore cabin tradition run deep. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Minnesota's lake season is short and this stretch books early — reserve well ahead for July and August.

Lake View Lodge

9 Cabins

Lake View Lodge in Ely, MN, offers 9 cabins on the shores of Shagawa Lake. This is a lakeside cabin resort rather than a serviced RV park — the published record shows no RV sites or hookups, so contact the lodge directly if you're traveling in a rig. The grounds are gated, with a bathhouse, on-site dining, and WiFi. Pets are welcome. The water is the whole point. Boat docks, a boat ramp, boat rentals, a beach, and walking trails put guests directly onto Shagawa's 2,000-plus acres of walleye, northern pike, and smallmouth water, with swimming, paddling, fishing, hiking, biking, and birding. The lodge has been running this operation for more than eighteen years. Ely is the gateway community to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, and the town reflects it: the International Wolf Center, the International Bear Center, the Dorothy Molter Museum, the Soudan Underground Mine, and the Mesabi Trail are all close. Rates for the cabins are on the booking page. Boundary Waters season is short and Ely fills — reserve well ahead, and call about RV accommodation before you tow.
