Camping alone with a beagle

Green Canopy Cabin

I really love this place for summer and fall trips. Super private cabin with an outhouse available. Crossing the creek was unique and an experience itself. I will definitely be back next summer with the wife and kids

Gorgeous but rough entry point

Green Canopy Cabin

Overall, we loved the setting — gorgeous fall colors, cabin was nice, price was great! It should be noted that this is *not* an accessible campsite as marked. The creek terrain is rocky and uneven.

Close to bike trail

Green Canopy Cabin

What a great place! So private and shady and loved hearing the creek! It’s very close to the cannon valley bike trail so I had a nice time biking into Cannon Falls and having a drink at the winery. I would definitely come back!

Mellow Yellow the hidden gem

Mellow Yellow

If you want a private, beautiful primitive camp site this is the spot for you. Next to a pristine creek where you can fish and swim this spot checked many boxes. Water, privacy, plenty of wood nearby (for purchase), picnic table, and tons of space! There is no outhouse so you will need to setup a portable loo (bring your own, or there are some for rent near the firewood). We saw eagles and a fellow camper caught a brown trout.
