Great Campground!! This was our first trip to South Kawishiwi and there was nothing at all to suggest it shouldn't be 5 stars! Generally, there's electricity at most campsites, but we camped October 20th... and while the electric was disconnected, we were just glad it was open at all! Great views of the river, very large and nicely spaced campsites, well maintained throughout the grounds, and the most delightful privies we've seen ANYWHERE!! Clean and decorated and well cared for, obviously. No services supplied at this time of the year - so the camping was free - but an ex-camp-host from nearby Ely, stopped by anyway and inquired if there were any questions we might have and pointed us to a hand pump with "the best water you'll find anywhere in the north country!!" There isn't a dump station here, but there is just up the road at the Visitor's Info building as you enter Ely. 3 bars of connectivity on our Verizon network.

We stayed at two adjoining sites with friends last week. Everything about this campground is exceptional. We enjoyed the friendly campground host, spacious sites, trails down to the lake, ultra-clean bathrooms, access to firewood, and proximity to Ely and so many hiking and water recreation opportunities. We stay at Fall Lake often, but will return to this serene place. Give it a try!

We found the park by accident. Stayed a couple nights in #41 w/ our 38'RV. It was reserved for the weekend and we loved it so much we moved to spot #20 w/out electric for another 4 days. Terri the host is awesome and keeps the place very clean. We hope to kayak and canoe tomorrow on the river. Great small trail all around the camp. People are quite and friendly. Ely is a awesome little town with lots to see and do. Loved the bear center. We hope to come back soon.
