Imagine spending time on a warm sunny beach, hiking a forest trail
. . . fresh walleye, loons calling, a sunset and northern lights.
All this can be yours in one of the Chippewa National Forest's 21
campgrounds. The campgrounds are located on 12 of the Forest's 1,300
lakes. Campgrounds are generally open from mid-May to mid-September;
some are open all year with no water or garbage pickup off-season.
Campground facilities vary from flush toilets and showers to rustic
campgrounds with vault toilets and hand pump water wells.
Each campsite has a picnic table, fireplace, tent pad and parking
spot. For a day trip enjoy one of our picnic
areas.
For a $9.00 fee, reservations may be made in advance at some of
the campgrounds through the National Recreation Reservation System
(NRRS) by calling 1-877-444-6777. Reservations can also be
made through the NRRS web site at www.Recreation.gov. Reservations
can be made 240 days in advance. Due to increased use levels
and the impacts on the campground sites the Chippewa National
Forest enforces the National Policy of a 14 day maximum length of
stay limit at each campground.
If you are seeking a more primitive experience, there are over
380 back country recreation
sites on the Forest; these sites are free of charge, have
limited facilities, and allow you to "get away from it all".
A table is available to give you a listing of all the services, facilities, opening dates and fees for each of
the campground. Fees are based on single occupancy. Single occupancy
is defined as a group of eight people or less with one motorized
vehicle. A family of more than eight people is considered single
occupancy if there are no more than two adults with the immediate
children. Double occupancy is defined as two families or two groups,
with no more than two motorized vehicles, camping together.
