Everything was great, even the mosquitoes were well behaved, but the gnats were vicious!!!! We were doing our initial setup at arrival before the campfire was made, and by the time we noticed how bad they were our kids were already dripping blood from their hair lines and ears!!! Quite terrifying before we realized what it was from. Get the campfire set up right away since the smoke repels them, and make sure to bring all the bug repellant you have available!!! Greatful for the general store on site.

Absolutely beautiful campground entirely! Lake views are fantastic. Was challenge that campground paper map, as well as map on this site, shows a water spigot that doesn't exist at the far end of the spur showing near site 30. Spigot on map near site 41 exists but is actually on the opposite corner.

Sawbill National Forest campground is a beautiful place on the edge of the BWCA. Have been going there for many years and have always had a great experience

Most water was shut off, so it was a REALLY long walk to the only water tap. Also we had some very noisy neighbors. Likely not the campground's fault but still made the nice quiet campsites on our BWCA trip the following day that much nicer.

The silence and darkness was so beautiful . Wonderful, helpful people at the Sawbill Outfitters.

Wonderful service from Sawbill outfitters. Great camping sites and walks around the campground. Of course also excellent site to rent canoes and other gear for Boundary Waters trips!

Nice quiet campground with space between sites. We had two tents and there was ample space for each.

Very quiet campground.

Heavily wooded camp site with plenty of visual privacy. Gorgeous lake and friendly people. One camper had a whiney toddler who decided to wake the camp up at 5:30 am. One camper brought a dog that barked all morning. I wish these two campers had stayed home. Still, 99% of the dogs and children were excellent neighbors.
