Travel trailer camping near Grand Rapids Mn

Can anyone please tell me where is a good campground with full hook-ups near Grand Rapids MN. My sister in law is getting married in May, and I really don't know the campground scene too well up there at all. Wife's family up there don't camp and are no help to my quest.
So I am reaching to you guys/gals for some help. Thank you in advance
  • Thanks to everyone, We narrowed it down. We got real good choices, as we did not before. We got this wedding for May, and Niagara Falls for September.

    Again, Thank you

    Making sure your asking about Grand Rapids MN--I saw a response to Michigan and not Minnesota?

    We haven't found a lot of choices around Grand Rapids, MN. Back in 2008 we stayed at a little resort, Birch Cove campground, with mostly seasonal sites on Lake Pokegama. Nothing spectacular but it's on Lake Pokegama and it's close to town. We had full hook-ups on a small site lined up among seasonal sites but we were in Grand Rapids for a graduation and didn't spend much time at the campground. Here's a website listing that resort and others.

    If we ever stayed in the area again, we'd try the Corp of Engineers campground at the Pokegama dam or this place looked really nice just north of town. Depends what your looking for in amenities.

    Good luck!


    You say you haven't found a lot of choices but, that first web site you listed shows quite a few. I think your right it depends on what your looking for in amenities.

  • Check out this link. There are several campgrounds in that area. Some with full hookups.
  • RV Park Reviews has several different ones that are rated from "Great" to "Think Twice Before Reserving".

    This link should give you all you need to make a selection.

    Two of them have sewer.
