Chester Woods Park

This lovely park is just minutes east of Rochester MN. Electric Hookups avail. Dump station and potable water in the park. Great shade trees, campground hosts were great, they have a beach on a man made reservoir, nice walking trails, kayaks for rent. Bathhouse in the campground could use some deep cleaning/refreshing. Firewood available for purchase. Weekends fill up with local/regional campers. As mentioned earlier sites require a little extra to level but worth it.

We stayed on a Sunday through Wednesday. Very nice campground. The check in process was very simple and the camp hosts were very very friendly. Most sites are not level and require a little extra effort to get the coach in a position where we could get the jacks down. But it was honestly a pretty minimal amount of extra maneuvering. The sites are very spacious. Our neighbors were about 50-60 feet away in each side. There are lots of trees so satellite TV most likely won’t happen here. But there are a ton of local channels that came in great. Cell service is pretty good. Three to four bars of Verizon. We would stay here again.

The Park charges a $5 auto fee daily for each campsite. No senior discounts..

The pretty setting among rolling wooded hills with well spaced sites that have electric with water nearby. Part of a larger popular parks with creeks, small lake with boat rentals and biking trails. There is a dump station with easy access.

They do take reservations here so best make sure they have room during the summer season, especially holidays and weekends.

There is NO shuttle service to the Mayo facilities from here. It is a 20 minute drive and there is paid parking convenient to Mayo facilities.

This c/g is built on a hill, sites are level and most are wooded with hardwood trees. Children's playgrounds are nearby, there is a beach and nture trails.
