Dear Campers,
At Spring Lake Campground, our central focus is to provide you and your loved ones with an experience you will cherish for a lifetime. As the gateway to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Refuge, we want Spring Lake to not only be a sanctuary for wildlife, but a peaceful oasis for our campers. Spring Lake Campground has been providing this unique experience since the 1940’s. A camping trip spent at Spring Lake Campground will be like stepping back in time when life was much simpler. Spring Lake Campground is more than just a place to park your camper or pitch your tent, it’s a one of a kind vintage camping experience you will never forget. A few highlights we are known for: excellent fishing early in the summer (as lake levels vary and as the lily pads as lotus plants fill in, fishing becomes more limited), for painted turtles laying their eggs in June, kayaking through the forest of blooming lotus mid summer, migratory birds and fall leaves throughout October, direct access to the Great River bike trail and unlimited beautiful sunsets over the lake!
Please, come check out this beautiful piece of history. Come explore the natural beauty of the lake and the wildlife inhabiting it. Embrace the beauty and simplicity of the Spring Lake Experience. We are looking forward to seeing you all this camping season!
Welcome to the sanctuary!
