Dip out of work, and into the lake
A family friendly Minnesota Summer
Lakeside Cabins
Relax in our furnished, 2-bedroom cabins that have a full kitchen and bathroom. Located a stone's throw from the water, each cabin can accommodate 6-8 guests + pets.
Inside there are couches to lounge on, full kitchens to prepare a family meal, thermostats to stay comfortable, bathrooms for convenience, and fresh linens to relax after a full day outside. Each cabin has an outdoor deck, charcoal grill, picnic table, and firepit overlooking the water.
Launch and dock your boat in a dedicated slip or take advantage of a discounted fishing boat rental.
RV CAMPING
Enjoy our full hook-up, pull-through camping sites that all have updated 20/30/50 amp electric, on-site sewer, and water. We are a relatively small campground with only 5 lakeside sites overlooking Swan Lake and 4 woodside sites near the walking trails. Each site has a paved patio, picnic table, and firepit.
Tent Camping
Live simply and setup camp with your tribe. We offer a handful of primitive sites right behind the beach and even fewer electric sites. At each, there is a firepit with a cooking grate, a picnic table, and plenty of firewood for sale at the camp store. Bathrooms and hot showers are open to all guests.
All rates include access to the beach, swim raft, log roller, playground, hiking trails, canoes, kayaks, fishing docks, hammocks, ping-pong, pool, foosball, and yard games (volleyball, slackline, spikeball, horseshoes, frisbee, cornhole, bocce ball). On select weekends we setup an arts & crafts tent for the kids and organize friendly kickball games that everyone is welcome to join.
