CAMPING
Group Campsites
Details
In accordance with Voyageurs’ General Management Plan, the park developed two 30-person group campsites in 2005. One site is on Rainy Lake and the other site is on Kabetogama Lake. Each group campsite has seven tent pads, four food lockers, one enclosed unisex comfort station with vault toilet, docking for eight to ten boats, two fire rings, picnic tables, and scenic vistas. Each site has a wheelchair-accessible core area with accompanying facilities.
Voyageurs National Park is black bear country. Please use the provided bear-resistant food lockers when staying in a developed campsite, or hang food at least ten feet up and four feet out from a large tree when camping in an undeveloped site. Help us keep our wildlife healthy while helping to keep your family, your camping gear, and your boat safe.
