Camping

[PSiedTSi]

What kind of camping are you looking for? Tent, seasonal or just with a smaller pull behind on weekends? There are TONS of places around. Almost every decent lake in the area has 2 or so resorts. You can search for resorts/campgrounds on google maps, etc.

If you're just looking for fishing, then thats a completely different story.

Itaska state park, good luck getting a camping spot. Its always booked. But very nice place. Ive camped at maplewood also and its alright. But the scenery at Itaska is awesome.

Uhh, yes. I can camp at a lake, catch walleyes, and swim all day long 37 miles from Fargo. I'd say Bemidji(130mi or so with the "shortcut") is pretty far. Plus, you get to drive through the reservation.

Its way nicer up there than Maplewood. Its like saying ya I can go snowboarding at andys mountian, or in Colorado.

i usually end up going to Indian creek near mobridge sd, that maybe be a little bit further than what you want to drive, but they have GREAT walleye fishing and you can get in easily if you have a motor coach, we maneuver just fine with our 42ft Monaco Diplomat.

Did I even say anything about Maplewood? Thats a terrible comparison as well.

Stayed at Itasca last week which was fucking awesome! Floated the ottertail for my first time on the 3rd and then went on the 4th which was fun as hell. Now i think we are headed to GF
