This park has a ton of camping available, particularly if you don't need electricity and have a smaller rig because then you can get into more of the campground loops. (There is electricity here, but there are many more sites without.)
The sites in the Old Logging Campground were close together but many had vegetation between them offering some privacy. Site 207 was especially tucked in but it's a tight spot, so probably best for a van or tent.
The park itself has a lot to offer being right on the St. Croix River, plus there are hiking trails, a paved bike path, a fire tower you can climb, an old CCC camp area you can tour, and more. Also, canoe and kayak rentals are available. And this is all within the state park boundary since, at 34,000 acres, the park is the largest in the Minnesota state park system.
Some of the loops have old bathhouses that desperately need to be replaced, but they are in the process of doing so, which means some loops have great new bathrooms and showers. (If you stay in the upper 200s, sites, you'll have one of these new bathrooms right away, but more are being built.)
Cell service was incredibly spotty on Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile. Depending on where you're at, you'll get a low signal, but often it was only enough for texting -- don't think about using the web or social media or getting any work done while you're here.
Overall, we enjoyed our weekend at this park and would come back for another getaway if we had the chance and it wasn't a workday.

I loved my stay. It is a gorgeous state park with great camp sites. Right in hiking and bike trails. Great views! Staff was friendly and helpful. Firewood onsite for sale.

St. Croix State Park is the largest state park in Minnesota. More than 200 sites are spread over three adjacent campgrounds that number sites consecutively. We stayed in the Logging Trail Campground. Some sites have electricity. There is a dump station.
The lower numbered sites tend to be in more open areas. The higher numbered sites are usually well separated by brush. Several rest room buildings with flush toilets and showers are scattered about but are not necessarily on the same loop. Portable toilets are also available.
All sights are close to the St. Croix River, which is a National Wild River. Canoe and kayaks are popular. Rentals are available in mid summer. There is an extensive trail system.
Swimming is located in another portion of the park.
Cell service was spotty. We varied from 1 bar to no service.

“Wonderful SP deep and remote into the northern Minnesota woods. Campsites, including equestrian sites well laid out next to the historic Wild St. Croix River.”

Approx. 20 miles east of I-35 and Hinkley, MN on Rte 48 headed towards Danbury, WI. The SP is five miles south of 48 in a beautiful birch, oak and maple forest that has been harvested in places and has new growth coming up. Very picturesque!
Sevral campgrounds within the Park are on the high western bank of the River. The river is a short walk from any of the campsites. Camping services vary from primitive to electric only. There is an Interpretive Center, a equestrian C/G off by itself with electric, water , corrals and long riverside trails for riding. The Park has a dump station.
I'm sure this is a busy place during the summer, but great during the week or when school is back in session. All the sites are treed and shaded, well spaced, gravel with plenty of length for rigs up to 40'
