Campgrounds near Mall of America

[astern2]

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to do an overnight near Mall of America?

DO NOT stay at St. Paul East. Horror story upon horror story. PM me if you would like.

I agree stay away from St. Paul's east. Had very negative experience there park is beautiful but we were treated very bad. You can privately mail me too.

Dakotah Meadows for sure - convenient to MoA and a great park.

DO NOT - under any circumstances - stay at East St. Paul or whatever- the one in Woodbury! It is a nice looking park but major personnel issues of all kinds there with both customers and other. Wiil not go into detail here - you can email or pm me. We found out the hard way.

We stayed in Bloomington at a Mobile Home park that had a few RV spots. But they were very tight and very busy.

But we drove down to the Casino to check out Dakotah Meadows. We'd stay there if we go back again.

http://www.townandcountrycampground.com/ Town And Country Campground in Savage. Not too far from MOA. We've been staying there when we make our annual trip to visit for the last few years. (even a few winters, too. Gave that up, dump valves kept freezing up)

We aren't headed that way till summer, but trying to plan and make reservations. Our bus is 43' and we seem to have a hard time fitting in the county and state parks. We are willing to be up to an hour away.

Another vote for St Paul East RV Park. Nice place, good location. There were a lot of big rigs there when we were there. Nice level pull-throughs w/ 50 amp and full hookups.

The KOA in Maple Grove can handle a 43' coach, think MOA is about 30-35 miles away.
Lived in in Maple Grove until 2012.

Stayed at the KOA in Jordan, MN last May...25 miles SW of the Mall.

Would stay there again.

This is a nice wooded campground located within an easy 10 minute drive of MOA. I'm not certain if it's open in the winter though.

What do you consider near? We live in the west side of the twin cities and we enjoy Baker Park Campground. Its 30 miles west of the MOA but is very nice CG. Only open Apr-Oct. Weekends are pretty much full but weekdays are quite. Its a county park/CG.

St Paul East RV Park is very nice.
