Our stay at North Shore Camping Co was absolutely unforgettable—we’re completely hooked now! The staff went above and beyond in every possible way. They didn’t just think of everything we might need… they thought of things we never would’ve expected. Everyone was so warm and welcoming, and they even brought us extra blankets and hot water bottles on those chilly nights. It was truly the perfect experience—we can’t wait to go back!
Split Rock Lighthouse is only 4 miles away!

I’m giving this an overall four stars because we loved the concept. Actual execution was two-stars. It is possible that this was due to being late in the season (we stayed mid-September). The staff seemed distracted during check in and forgot to tell us we needed to schedule a pick up for check out. Fortunately, I thought to ask about checkout. The tent was awesome and we loved the campsite. Many of the promised items were either broken or missing. We only had one working lantern and no working flashlights and the coffee supplies had not been re-stocked. When we walked back to the office, we were given two more working lanterns. The bathroom closest to our tent stopped flushing late at night and the sink had no running water. We decided to hike out in the morning rather than wait for our ride. When we got to the office, I went to take a shower but there were no towels available (staff said the dryer wasn’t working) and the soap was not stocked. We were disappointed with the overall experience. I am hopeful that this is not the typical experience. If we visited the area again, I would consider giving them a second chance.

The cabin was well appointed, if there was anything you needed it forgot from home the office got it for you. Staff was really friendly. The cabins/ Talts we’re so clean and so cozy. The only downside is that you could hear a fair amount of car traffic from Highway 61, did not bother my husband or my son. I was just very aware of it.

We enjoyed our stay but there were several things that were not up to the standard I would have expected for what we paid. This was an overpriced stay hiding behind trendy black and red Nordic branding. -They charged a cleaning fee when we checked out. I must’ve missed this when booking but it was an unpleasant surprise, especially for a place that wasn’t very clean. -The latrines up by the tents flushed and had running water but they were always dirty with no paper towels, over flowing trash, and no TP one morning -The matches provided were horrible. They wouldn’t stay lit and it took me ~15 of them to finally get one lit long enough to start the fire. We ended up buying a lighter the next day -The enamel cups provided in the tent were rusty and chipping paint. When I brought them to the lodge for a replacement they got me new ones but not even a “sorry about that!” -Their communication said we needed to arrive by 8:30 pm for a ride to our tent. We arrived at 8 and while the person at the desk was very nice she joked that we were lucky because she usually leaves at 8. I guess we were lucky! -The gas stove provided didn’t work. I’ve used stoves like this a lot in my life so I don’t think I was doing it wrong. The bed was comfy and we had a nice time but this isn’t a luxury experience. For what we paid I was expecting more. Next time we’ll either go camping or stay in a hotel.

The staff bent over backwards to help and answer questions. It was glamping so there were some obvious compromises. However, you could shower at the base camp in a separate bathroom with a sink. The base camp for us was a 7 minute walk down a mountain.

Do you really need to wade thru mud?

They told us main paths were lighted at night, but they didn't all work.
The mud is worse after dark when you can't see it & are making your way to the loo.
