Has Anyone Camped at Temperance Near Duluth MN?

We heard from a 3rd party that Temperance (sp) campsite was a nice place to camp. Just wondering if anyone here has camped that & what were your thoughts? Thanks

Hi, Barry,

I've camped at Temperance River State Park several times, although always as a tenter - our last trip there was actually the last time we camped before we got the trailer, so I can't say much about the electrical sites (there are 18 of them according to their website, which is at Temperance River State Park: Minnesota DNR), but the lakeside sites have an amazing view of Lake Superior, and there are a lot of short hikes throughout the park, and it's on the North Shore, so it's gorgeous. One person's idea of a nice place to camp may not be like the next person's, but we like it a lot.

I am in Mn but never been there. Looks nice!

I was there about 3 years ago, in August. Drove in and got lucky... picked up the last available campsite (mid afternoon). It was wonderful. I could walk a trail from the campground to the river and then up along the river, with great waterfall views. There's Superior shoreline right there too. I took a bunch of pictures, including teens jumping (maybe 20 feet down?) off a cliff into a deep spot in the river. I want to stay there again next time I go back to the north shore. Definitely would recommend.
