Best Time to Camp at Riverview Campground

Like much of Minnesota, St. Croix State Park experiences the full spectrum of seasons, so come prepared for anything from warm summer days (when you'll appreciate those electric hookups for AC) to cool evenings that might call for a space heater in shoulder seasons. Summer campers should pack bug spray—the mosquitoes and biting insects can be enthusiastic from late spring through summer, though they're just part of the authentic northwoods experience.

Summer(Jun-Aug)
4.0 / 5

Summer would showcase lake use and lush forest; reviewers praise scenic, wooded sites (implied peak season).

Best
Fall(Sep-Nov)
4.0 / 5

Aspen and birch present; fall color and secluded northwoods setting likely very attractive.

Spring(Mar-May)
3.0 / 5

Spring brings woods and wetlands to life but may be muddy or buggy; no season-specific notes provided.

Winter(Dec-Feb)
3.0 / 5
Top 18% in MN

Northwoods offers winter scenery and potential for snow activities, but winter use and services not specified.
