This Luxury ‘Glampground’ In Minnesota Will Give You An Unforgettable Experience

If you're looking for a fun getaway near BWCA but aren't much of a camper, or want to take a break from setting your own camp up, allow us to introduce you to the beautiful luxury that is glamping. In Minnesota, this glamorous wilderness experience can include staying on a private island complete with furnished tent, sauna, and screen tent with cooking equipment -  if you head to Riverside Island Campsites in Ely.

Hidden away on a private island in Ely'€™s White Iron Lake, you'll find these stunning campsites.

At the two island campsites there are luxurious 12x20 tents with beds, and a table and chairs.

You can even sleep an entire family of 4 in one of these tents!

The tents are conveniently connected to an outhouse and sauna.

The wood-fired Finnish sauna will provide you with the most relaxing experience you've ever had on a "camping" trip.

You also have access to the amazing screen tent where you can bring your own food to cook, or have it provided as part of a package deal!

The kitchen has everything you need. And with one of their packages, you even get a growler of local Ely Boathouse Brew!

You can take guided fishing trips all summer and enjoy the lake and local activities, and dogsled, ski, snowshoe, snowmobile, and ice fish in the winter.

Or... you can just kick back in camp, light a fire, and enjoy the views.

You can even rent out the ENTIRE private island! It doesn't get better than this!

Once you experience glamping, you might never go back to pitching a tent in the woods. Trust us, this is the way to explore Minnesota.
