BEAVER BAY, Minn. – One of Minnesota’s more popular state parks is getting a new campground. Work continues this year on a project to add Split Rock’s first drive-in camping option.
The Shipwreck Creek campground is tentatively planned to open in the fall, with 46 sites with electric service and a modern shower and bathroom facility. The park near Beaver Bay currently has only walk-in and cart-in campsites.
Park manager Katie Foshay says lots of people are looking for drive-in sites. The project also includes a parking lot for hikers and mountain bikers, to access both the Gitchi-Gami State Trail and a network of new mountain bike trails being constructed by Lake County adjacent to the park.
