Lake View Lodge

9 Cabins

Lake View Lodge in Ely, MN, offers 9 cabins on the shores of Shagawa Lake. This is a lakeside cabin resort rather than a serviced RV park — the published record shows no RV sites or hookups, so contact the lodge directly if you're traveling in a rig. The grounds are gated, with a bathhouse, on-site dining, and WiFi. Pets are welcome. The water is the whole point. Boat docks, a boat ramp, boat rentals, a beach, and walking trails put guests directly onto Shagawa's 2,000-plus acres of walleye, northern pike, and smallmouth water, with swimming, paddling, fishing, hiking, biking, and birding. The lodge has been running this operation for more than eighteen years. Ely is the gateway community to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, and the town reflects it: the International Wolf Center, the International Bear Center, the Dorothy Molter Museum, the Soudan Underground Mine, and the Mesabi Trail are all close. Rates for the cabins are on the booking page. Boundary Waters season is short and Ely fills — reserve well ahead, and call about RV accommodation before you tow.

Superior, WI

Mont du Lac Resort

20 RV Sites, 16 Cabins, 14 Tent Sites

Mont du Lac Resort in Superior, WI, offers 20 full-hookup RV sites, 16 cabins, and 13 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 60 feet. Sites come as standard and deluxe back-ins, each carrying water, sewer, electric, and cable TV with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. One thing to know before you book a cabin: the slope-side cabins are rustic, heated by a wood stove, and do not include indoor plumbing or a kitchen. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, firewood, and on-site dining cover the essentials, and pets are welcome with a dog park. The resort runs year-round on a single hillside — a downhill ski and snowboard hub in winter, and a disc golf, mountain biking, and hiking property the rest of the year, with a marina, beach, water park, and walking trails for swimming, boating, fishing, and corn hole. Superior sits on the Wisconsin side of the St. Louis River, overlooking the Duluth-Superior harbor and the western tip of Lake Superior. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Confirm what your cabin includes before booking — the slope-side units are deliberately rustic.

Hinckley, MN

St. Croix River Resort

17 RV Sites, 3 Cabins

St. Croix River Resort in Hinckley, MN, offers 17 RV sites and 3 cabins, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 68 feet. Sites come in two water-and-electric back-in categories, one at 30-amp and one standard. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station for longer stays. The resort is rated big rig friendly and the 68-foot maximum takes long coaches. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, RV storage, and golf cart rentals cover the practical side, and pets are welcome. For a 17-site property the recreation is unusually complete: indoor and outdoor pools, a clubhouse, mini-golf, a pavilion, sport courts, volleyball, horseshoes, a playground, and walking trails, with river and lake access for fishing and swimming, plus planned activities through the season. Hinckley sits in Pine County on the upper St. Croix River corridor in east-central Minnesota, midway between the Twin Cities and Duluth, with a casino nearby. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. The indoor pool makes shoulder-season stays worthwhile here, which is rare in Minnesota.

Royalton, MN

Two Rivers Campground & Tubing

112 RV Sites, 1 House

Two Rivers Campground and Tubing in Royalton, Minnesota, offers 112 full-hookup RV sites and a house rental at the Mississippi and Platte River confluence, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet behind a gated entrance. A Paw Pen pull-through category for guests with dogs joins patio back-in and deluxe pull-through tiers, with an outdoor pool, mini-golf, jumping pillow, and river tubing. One hundred twelve sites span back-in full hookup 30/50-amp, back-in full hookup patio 30/50-amp, deluxe pull-thru full hookup patio 30/50-amp, Paw Pen pull-thru full hookup 30/50-amp, and pull-thru full hookup 30/50-amp categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. A Paw Pen — a private fenced run at the site — is genuinely uncommon. A house rental and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Rates cover one RV or two tent units with two adults and two children; children under two are free, an additional tent is $30 a night, and holiday rates apply. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with river tubing as the property's defining activity — the Platte's gentle current and accessible float corridor are what most guests come for. Mini-golf, a jumping pillow, gaga ball, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, shuffleboard, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, biking, a beach, playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the rest. The address is 5116 145th Street Northwest in Morrison County. Summer is the tubing season. Reserve well ahead.
