Most mentioned
"Visitor feedback is strongly positive overall: campers praise the quiet, scenic setting, spacious and well‑screened sites, clean modern bathhouse, and the unique combination of camping with Mystery Cave and Historic Forestville. Common negatives are very limited or no cell service, no campground Wi‑Fi, occasional cold/lukewarm showers in shoulder seasons, horse droppings on multi‑use trails, and lack of an on‑site store for ice or supplies."

Best Time to Camp at Main Campground
The campground truly comes alive from late spring through early fall, when warm days invite you to explore miles of trails and descend into the cool depths of Mystery Cave. Summer brings the full experience with daily cave tours and costumed interpreters bringing Historic Forestville to life, though you'll find quieter trails and more available sites during the shoulder seasons. If you're camping in spring or fall, pack an extra layer for those brisk mornings and be prepared for cooler shower conditions—but the trade-off is fewer crowds and stunning seasonal colors.
Campers note a very green, shady, and serene summer setting under hardwoods.
Hardwood bluffs/valleys in Minnesota imply strong fall color potential.
Description of 'very green' and spring growth suggests pleasant spring visits.
No winter services or activities mentioned; Minnesota winters are severe.
