We offer horseback riding, trolley rides, wagonette rides, 25 miles of walking/hiking/biking and horseback trails and much more! The campground borders Long Lake and offers two playgrounds and a designated swimming area. The large sandy beach has a volleyball court setup, a boat launch, and picnic tables. If you decide to bring your own boat there are dock sites available for an additional charge.

Please notify the office when you register if you are bringing a boat. Dock slips are on a first come-first served basis. Boats & trailers are not allowed at the camp site or the beach but are allowed to stay in our off-site storage area. Bring your own horses for the day and enjoy 25 miles of trails on over 1,200 acres of privately owned wilderness. The trails are well groomed and feature woods, water crossings, hills, and trails for beginner to advanced riders. The first weekend in June is the Kickoff Jam, a bluegrass camping and jamming event, featuring Ranch House Live, a great opportunity to perform in front of your peers. The 2nd weekend in August, we host the entertaining Minnesota Bluegrass and Old-Time Music Festival, sponsored by MBOTMA!! We host weddings and corporate events as well. Call (320) 597-2740 for inquires.

The Lake Monsters (often performing as the Lake Monster Bluegrass Band) are a popular acoustic and traditional bluegrass group based in the Twin Cities. Originally formed in the summer of 2023 for a monthly gig at Minneapolis's Lake Monster Brewery, the group’s fun, "straight-ahead classic bluegrass" style proved so popular they decided to stay together as a full-time project. Coming to August Fest be sure to catch them!

Nothing fancy with this post. Just an honest and heartfelt thank you to our 4.8k followers. We appreciate you taking the time to get to know our (not-so-) little campground! Like this if you agree with me that we can get to 5k followers by the end of summer.

Have a great weekend! Stay safe and have fun!

Happy Mother’s Day from El Rancho Mañana 🌿

Today we celebrate every kind of mom and caregiver who makes the world feel warmer, safer, and more loving. To moms, stepmoms, chosen-family moms, pet moms, grieving moms, grandmas, aunties, and every person who shows up with care and compassion; we see you, and we’re grateful for you.

Motherhood and caregiving do not come in one shape or story. Sometimes it looks like bedtime stories and muddy boots. Sometimes it looks like rescue-pet cuddles, quiet support, hard-earned strength, or simply making sure someone feels loved.

Whether today is joyful, complicated, tender, or bittersweet, we hope you find a little peace, rest, and kindness here at the campground.

Happy Mother’s Day 💛
