Another perfect weekend in the Northwoods, and we would not trade it for anything. 🌲
Close your eyes for a second.
Imagine waking up to the smell of bacon sizzling on the Blackstone, drifting through the trees and pulling everyone out of their campers one by one. Kids are still buzzing from the night before — hide and seek, giggling in the dark, the kind of night games that kids remember for years. Out on the water, fishermen are already out in their boats, soaking in that early morning calm. By midday, the lake is full of life — seasonal campers, cabin guests, overnight RV visitors, and a great group of young folks who made the trip up from the Twin Cities, all cooling off together in one of the cleanest lakes in Washburn County. The ATVers rolled out in the morning and came back with big smiles and good stories. And as the afternoon settled in, so did everyone else — lawn chairs out, drinks in hand, listening to Susan play her ukulele while Olie passed around his smoked Old Fashioneds. New friends and old ones chatted over drinks and a spread of Fiesta snacks that somehow kept appearing. Even the wildlife decided to stop by and see what all the fuss was about.
That is a Saturday at Anchor Campgrounds. That is what we do here.
We are not just a campground. We are a community — one where strangers show up on Friday and leave as friends on Sunday, and where some of those friends like it so much they never really leave. 😄
If you have been looking for a peaceful home-away-from-home, a basecamp for your Northwoods adventures, or a place where you actually know your neighbors and look forward to seeing them every weekend — we would love to talk to you about seasonal camping for 2027.
Spots are limited and the waiting list is forming now. Give us a call at 715-635-2614. No answer? Leave a message — we are a family-owned and operated campground and we may just be out visiting with a guest when you call. We will get back to you!
