Campground Reviews & Adventures

Land of 10,000 Lakes

Nothing but lakes and campgrounds to see as we continue our trip through Minnesota! Stepping back a bit in time to Temperance River I found another use for my bike basket. It makes a great sock dryer! Before leaving for Bear Head Lake State Park the next morning I made a batch of tacos for […]

Highway 61 Revisited

…as we visit more Minnesota campgrounds. A section of this iconic road follows the shore of Lake Superior from Duluth, Minnesota to the Canadian border. It so inspired a local singer that he named one of his best albums after it. You have probably heard of him. His name is Bob Dylan. But first I […]

More Minnesota Campgrounds and one Big Fish! Not only was that a silly Steve Martin movie, but it has been my world for the past four days. Blue lakes, blue rivers, and, finally, blue sky! I left Wild River State Park on Saturday and headed 65 miles north to St. Croix State Park for three […]

Hot Banana!

CampsitePhotos ventures deeper into the land of 10,000 lakes! Ok, where was I? Ah yes. After posting the last blog on Sunday I headed a few miles away below Gavins Point Dam on Lewis and Clark Lake to visit three campgrounds. I managed to get two. The weather was not being friendly again. That is […]
