Royal Oaks RV Park

Royal Oak RV Park is a home away from home for families spending the summer under a canopy of towering oaks. Tidy amenities offer the comforts of home, with groceries and firewood available at the camp office. The welcome sign includes family pets so kids won’t have to leave the family pooch behind. The park requires all dogs to be on a leash and guardians are encouraged to supply litter bags and clean up their waste. This is great news for pet lovers who can take their fur-babies on vacation and introduce them to new sights and scents with walks in a picturesque, country setting.

The hosts are always happy to escort you to a site where RV’s can be fully hooked up to electricity (30/50 amp), water, and sewer. Sites are mostly level on packed dirt with pull-through or back-in options and plenty of natural shade. Each site has a picnic table with a  fire ring, plus access to wi-fi and cable TV. The daily rate for an RV is between $42 and $47, with a $25 fee for folks wanting to pitch a tent in this wonderfully, rustic setting.

What could be better than a restful night under the stars, then waking to explore the local area with a leisurely stroll along the camp trail? After a hearty breakfast, you’ll be energized and ready to bike or drive to Lake Bemidji State Park, where you can wave to bikers passing through on the infamous Paul Bunyan Trail, a 115-mile trek that connects with the local area.

Royal Oaks RV Park is a cheerful, well-maintained campground with prime positioning for outdoor fun and near two major highways from which a hint of traffic noise can sometimes be heard. Busy times are summer, holidays, and anytime nature enthusiasts have the urge to visit Minnesota and her dazzling state parks. You’re personally invited to knock on their door without a booking, although picking up the phone or making a reservation online guarantees you a site.
