The campsite itself was great! Lots of trees, which we like.
A few things we didn't care for:
1. There were no rangers or park staff anywhere. We went on a weekend that the office was closed...but we ended up buying wood in Bemidji because there were no signs directing us where to buy wood in the campground. We ended up seeing it the next day on a bike ride when we rode by the campground host's spot.
2. We didn't see any signs on where to fill our camper up with water. Thankfully we filled at our house before we left, or that could have been a bid headache.
3. The bathrooms were nasty. My husband isn't picky, but they even grossed him out. We even opted to rinse off in the lake rather than use the showers.
4. Our neighbors were recreational marijauna smokers and they didn't follow quiet time rules...neither of which we appreciated...glad we didn't have kids with us, but it would still would have been nice to have park rangers or something to enforce rules so everyone can have an enjoyable weekend.
Overall, I would probably go back to Chippewa Loop if there were no other campground openings elsewhere and I really wanted to camp. But the state parks I've been to, and even the Leech Lake Recreation Area were much more maintained.
