Ninemile Lake Campground

How does the serenity of a peaceful lake surrounded by boreal forests sound for your next camping escape? Ninemile Lake Campground in the Superior National Forest offers a tranquil retreat with access to Ninemile Lake’s islands and hidden bays, perfect for fishing, canoeing, and quiet reflection. This moderately-sized campground features 26 campsites, with some reservable and others available on a first-come, first-served basis, ensuring options for different travel styles.

The campground balances rustic simplicity and comfort, providing essentials like picnic tables, fire rings, vault toilets, and a solar-powered water pump. A boat ramp gives direct access to the 300-acre lake renowned for fishing species like walleye and northern pike. For hikers, a 0.5-mile maintained trail begins across the road, transitioning into a more challenging 4.5-mile unmaintained loop, ideal for adventurers equipped with navigation skills. Nestled in the heart of the Superior National Forest, it’s a short drive from Finland, Minnesota, and near other attractions such as Echo Lake and the Crooked Lake Canoe Route.

Whether you’re on a weekend getaway or an extended nature retreat, Ninemile Lake Campground is a gateway to serene waters, lush woodlands, and authentic wilderness exploration in northern Minnesota.
