Awesome campground and boat launch. Honestly the only thing I can find to complain about is the automatic faucets & dryers in the bathrooms! Those are horribly annoying because they won't stay on. It's totally impossible to wash hands properly, or dry one's hair with those dryers.... I really wish the faucets & dryers would all get replaced with manual ones!

It's a clean campground. I love the space between campsites.

We reserved site #8 for a 2 week stay after verifying that our RV would fit into the space. We couldnt have been more wrong. The site is listed as accommodating vehicles up to 68 feet in length. We have a 35 ft. 5th Wheel and full size Ram 3500. We pulled in found our site and after 90 minutes of frustrating vehicle maneuvering that included everyone in the other sites - we gave up and had to go back to the ranger station and request a new site. Which they only had for 4 days. (And while we were there requesting a new site, 2 Class As were doing the same thing because of the same problem. They couldnt back into their sites either.). We did get into a site - not easy - and tried to figure out if there were other sites we could have picked. The answer is yes and no. This particular campground has trees everywhere which is great, except they are also at the entrance to almost every single site on both sides. Making matters worse is the roads are really skinny and hard to turn whether its backing in or just going around a curve. The ranger told us they have a proposal in to widen the roads and fix the entrance to the campsites, but its unlikely it will get approved. If you have a tiny camper, or a smaller Class A, B or C you most likely will not have a problem. All that said the campground is very lovely. Free washer and dryers, which are in good shape. New bathhouses with good showers and water pressure. Shuffleboard and horseshoes. Having a water front site is nice for the view but that was about it. I have a stand up paddle board and I wasnt allowed to launch it. There is no beach for swimming not that I think youd want to. I mean its called Leech Lake for a reason.Overall if we had to do it again we would stay there but I know now which sites to pick and I would not do it for longer than 4 days max. Its a very remote location and unless you are hard core fisherman there just isnt much to do.
