What others are saying about this campground
East Bearskin Lake Campground in Superior National Forest is the perfect spot to get away from it all and enjoy the beauty of northern Minnesota. With camper cabins that include a picnic style table, bunk beds, and foam sleeping pads, you can truly feel the wilderness. Each campsite has an outdoor picnic table and fire ring and there is plenty of space between cabins and other campsites. There are trails that lead to East Bearskin Lake, where you can fish for trout and enjoy the view from the overlook. Pit toilets and potable water are available, and the Bearskin Lodge nearby offers camping basics and food items. Grand Marais, MN is only 45 minutes away and provides a great opportunity to explore the area. The campsites are relatively private and can accommodate up to seven people. There is no heat or electricity in the cabins, but the structures are sturdy and provide shelter from wind, rain and snow. The lake access is clear of weeds and perfect for swimming. The campground is located off the Gunflint Trail and is a great spot for canoeing, paddle boarding, and kayaking. Dont forget the bug spray - the mosquitoes can be brutal! With no amenities close by, this is the perfect spot to relax, recharge, and reconnect with nature.

From The Campground

East Bearskin Lake Campground is located on East Bearskin Lake at the edge of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. It is a perfect choice for people who want the flavor of the Boundary Waters and the convenience of car camping. Some sites are hike-in access. Site 2, 20, and 28 are rentable camper cabins named Alder, Aspen, and Tamarac. Aspen and Tamarac sleep 7 in 4 beds (bunks, single, and double) with two in the loft. Alder sleeps 5. There are foam mattresses, but no bedding, cooking facilities, or bathrooms; bring sleeping gear, wash basin, and a cook stove. A boat ramp at the campground allows access to the lake by both motorboats and canoes. Be aware that the two eastern bays of East Bearskin Lake are within the BWCAW and require permits for entry. Day permits for non-motorized use are available at the campground, but overnight and motor use permits must be applied for in advance.
