Stand on top of the scenic glacial hills and experience the vast, open prairie which once dominated Minnesota. Wildflowers and prairie grasses blanket the landscape from spring through fall.

Swim, fish or boat (electric motors only) in the fresh, clear waters of 56-acre Singalness Lake. Canoe rental is available. A shady, spacious campground is available; horseback riders and backpack campers can camp at the trail center and at remote sites. A picnic area deck overlooks Singalness Lake.

Tell me more about this park's wildlife, history, geology and landscape.

Visitor Alert!

Fire Danger and Campfire Restrictions:

Due to high fire danger, campfires are not allowed at the hike-in campsites until further notice. Campfires are still allowed at the cabin sites and at campsites in the lower and Oak Ridge campgrounds. Campfires should be kept to a minimal height, and must be attended at all times and put out completely if you need to step away.

Year-Round Camper Cabins:

Four year-round camper cabins are available and can be reserved up to a year in advance! All have electricity and heat, and are located within 200' from a restroom. Three sleep six; one is ADA accessible and sleeps 5. Reserve a camper cabin now!
