About This Location

Discover the remote beauty of Intermediate Lake Campground in Minnesota. This primitive, year-round site offers a peaceful retreat for canoe and kayak enthusiasts.

Nestled along the serene shoreline of Intermediate Lake, this federal campground managed by the USFS offers a true wilderness escape for those seeking solitude. Accessible only by water, visitors can reach this tranquil spot via a 0.6-mile portage from Lake Richie or a 0.4-mile portage from Siskiwit Lake. Because there is no private boat access, the area remains exceptionally quiet, preserving the natural beauty of the Great Lakes region for all who visit.

This campground is designed for a rustic experience, providing a simple base for tent and car camping enthusiasts. The site is ADA accessible, ensuring that the beauty of the lakefront is reachable for a wider range of adventurers. Please note that from June 1 through Labor Day, there is a two-night stay limit in effect to help manage the site's popularity during the peak season.

Intermediate Lake Campground is best suited for paddlers and backcountry campers who enjoy self-sufficient travel. Since there are no hookups available, it is not recommended for RV travelers. Whether you are looking to disconnect from the grid or enjoy a peaceful portage adventure, this year-round destination offers a unique glimpse into the rugged, untouched landscapes of Minnesota.
