Mississippi River Headwaters - Gull Lake

Very well kept campground, sites are pretty good size, restrooms are clean and the staff is super friendly. We had a nice weekend here and we’re planning to return next year.

We had many family trips here. It had been over 25 years since we had went back. The place is just as beautiful as it was years ago. Well kept. Welcomed by all staff. Absolutely gorgeous in the fall! Highly recommended even if it’s just for a weekend or a long stay. Plenty to do from fishing to hiking. See the sites in Nisswa. You will not be disappointed! Our Dad/daughter weekend is one for the history books!

Awesome four day weekend. The staff was busy with keeping the sites cleared of leaves. All the sites are easy to maneuver into. Just a great recreational facility.

We've been visiting the Gull Lake Rec Area campground a couple of times a year for 5 years now and always have a super time. The Army Corps crew does an excellent job and the campgrounds are always clean, well maintained and quite. We especially appreciate the large campsites and all seem to be designed to maintain the privacy of the camper. Fall is my favorite time, when the leaves explode with color!

Campground and bathrooms were all very clean. Having our wood delivered was really nice. We would definitely come back again.

Gull Lake is an excellent campground. The campsites are located in a wooded area with a variety of various trees leading to a nice blend of fall colors. The staff was very helpful and polite in every way. Great experience.
