Loud but private
The park is pretty private. Covid has shut down things like showers and flushing toilets, that’s to be expected. Don’t know that I’d be doing it now even if they were available. The biggest thing that bothered me about this park was the 24/7 semi trucks on 60, nothing the park could do about it really, but coming from the city I just want to hear the wind threw the trees, the animals, and the fire. Overall staff is super friendly. When we got here the one outhouse by our campsite had a major #2 explosion. They cleaned it shortly after we said something. All this said. If you’re camping during a very hot weekend this would be a great place. Plenty of shade!

Very walkable on nice days
This was the last of our tour of SE Mn State Parks. We found it to be the most walkable of all the parks we went to. For the most part it was flat, no steep hills and wide well marked paths. The only downside is that it rainrd the night before and the trails are packed dirt so they were very slick and hard to walk on. There is a State Bike Trail that is paved and runs thru the park so if the weather is bad stick to that trail.

Bad experience at a beautiful state park
Not a review though the park was very nice & staff were helpful, but a request. We left binoculars at a table by the fishing pier & when we relaized it about 20 min later, they were gone. We had hoped someone would turn them in but as of today, the person who took them hasn't returned them. These binoculars were a gift from my husband & I would love to have them back. Please return them to the ranger's office. No questions asked.
