Campground Overview

About Benton Beach Campgrounds

Set against the backdrop of Little Rock Lake’s tranquil north shore, Benton Beach Campground is a versatile 30-acre destination perfect for families, outdoor enthusiasts, and casual campers seeking a mix of recreation and relaxation. Combining lake access, well-maintained facilities, and abundant on-site activities, this campground caters to day trips, weekend getaways, and extended stays.

The campground features 44 campsites, offering both electric and non-electric options, as well as essential amenities including hot showers, restrooms, a sanitary dump station, and firewood availability. Recreational highlights include an impressive 18-hole disc golf course, a playground, and facilities like a basketball court, sand volleyball courts, softball field, and horseshoe pits—ensuring ample opportunities for family fun. While Little Rock Lake is accessible for boating and fishing, note that swimming is discouraged due to water quality concerns. Picnic shelters and the Lakeview Center may also be rented for gatherings, making it ideal for group events.

Located just 2.5 miles east of Rice, Minnesota, Benton Beach Campground provides convenient access to a 289-acre county park along the Mississippi River, only four miles away. This scenic park offers visitors additional options for hiking, picnicking, and nature exploration—all within a short drive.
