Summary
Located along the St. Louis River in the Fond du Lac State Forest, it provides a remote, forested camping experience ideal for solitude seekers. Amenities are minimal—no toilets (bring your own waste disposal), no potable water, and no hookups. Sites may include fire rings, but picnic tables are not guaranteed. The area is accessible by vehicle (not suitable for large RVs). Enjoy river views, peaceful woodlands, and nearby trails like the North Country Trail. Best visited in late spring through fall for mild weather and easy access.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
