About
City-run campground in Franklin overlooking the Minnesota River Valley, with a boat ramp for river access.

Electric hookups, water, flush toilets, hot showers, a playground, a groomed snowmobile trail, and an on-site lounge/bar. Limited stays: 7 nights at the boat landing area, 3 nights at the ballpark area. Pets allowed.
