Stayed 2 nights exploring the North Shore. Great site, surprising level given the surrounding terrain. Nicely separate sites.
I was disappointed that this location does not have a dump station. Also road to get to the Baptist River area is badly in need of repair.

The hiking to see the waterfalls was easy within the campground the loop and the visitor center was gorgeous and clean, with coffee bar, gift shop, programming, etc. pro-tip: behind site 33 is a little path up to steep rock that you can climb and see great views! We will definitely be back!

We are in a 40’ Class A with a Jeep and were able to fit and level in site 2E. The site has 30/50Amp. Unfortunately the 50 wasn’t working while we were there, but the 30 served us just fine. This site is easy walking distance to the bathhouse. The showers were hot and the bathhouse was clean. There is water available to fill your tank at the bathhouse, but there is a notice about something that was in the water. The notice did say the water was drinkable, but we chose to not put it in our tank. There is no dump station at this park, but they do give you info about nearby dump stations at the Visitors Center. The Visitors Center is crazy. Not enough parking for all the people who visit this park. We arrived on a Tuesday afternoon in August and had to park in the handicapped RV lane to check in because there were absolutely no other places to park. They have a large RV parking lot with a number of lanes, but there were random cars parked in the lanes, so there was not room for RVers. IF you have a campground reservation, my suggestion is just go to your site. If you need to purchase the Minnesota State Park pass (annual or daily), come back to the office in your smaller vehicle to purchase that. Otherwise, campers do not need to check in at the office. You can get in to your site as soon as it is available.

We stayed here the weekend before memorial day. The campground seemed fairly full but was rather quiet for a state park campground. Our site long and narrow and was nicely secluded with trees on all sides and not being able to see adjacent sites. it was right next to a trail but it wasn't trafficked too heavily. It was not terribly level but we were able to get it leveled with blocks. It doesn't really appear like there would be a good spot to put down a tent. We got no TV channels and 2 bars of Verizon LTE. The LTE was spotty at times but I was able to stream to my TV. You couldn't really hear the road at our site but you could hear the nearby waterfall. There is no dump station but there is one just down the road in Silver Bay which also has drinking water to fill your tanks. The road into the campground in from 61 is kinda long and has a good amount of heaves.

We ar where in June and had it not been for all the wind the flys and mosquitoes would have been barely tolerable.

We really enjoyed not having neighbors close by, as there were many trees separating each campsite. There is a fire ban on at this time, so no campfires, which was a bummer, but understandable. Enjoyed the quiet and relaxing campsite and will return again.

The drive in from South along the coast was beautiful. So many purple and pink wildflowers, so green and lush. We had a nice site, big and private. There’s paths from the back of the campsites that go to the falls. We had electric and filled with water near the bath house. Our friends were in site #22 it was awesome. The smell of pine was so nice Christmas in June. It was very quiet all week.
There’s many trails in the park along with lots to do close by. Palisade Head, Gooseberry Falls, Split Rock Lighthouse and state park, Cascade falls state park, Grand Marais, Temperance River so, Bettys pies (we ate there) then went to the Rustic inn for pie. The best peanut butter pie ever. Good Blueberry pie too.
There is a lake called Lax lake about 5 miles inland nice boating, kayaking and fishing. Dinner was served. On the way there are 2 places that sell wood not bad bundles. The park sells it but due to COVID they didn’t sell it.
Nice dark sky’s at night.
The visitors center looked nice yet was closed. The dump station is

This state park is absolutely breathtaking! The campground is wonderful; private sites surrounded by beautiful greenery, great hiking trails, clean sites, clean bathrooms. This campground doesn't have a dump station but the station is a short drive into Silver Bay. The staff at the visitor center are super friendly and helpful. They have ice and firewood available for purchase. Shovel point, palisades head, and lake superior beach are all so magically beautiful. Northern Lights Roadhouse is down the street which serves great food and great bloody marys!
