Dave Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 My sons and I had an opportunity to check out Rogers' Campground & RV Park on Upper Red Lake in Minnesota. Not including the fabulous fishing URL has to offer, Jerry and Joani operate a very impressive campground and RV park. A protected boat landing and docking area, located with Shotley Brook running through the campground, provided easy access to your campsite after fishing and makes it a more worry-free trip. Many family activities are available at Roger's Campground; including kayaking, which Cory and Adam enjoyed a lot. The campsites were spacious and contain a fire ring, picnic table, electric and water. Forget something? Joani has the lodge stocked with a variety of necessities. And of course, Jerry keeps the bait shop well stocked, too. Fishing in the protected harbor could yield a nice catch during certain times of the year. Under the bridge and out you go onto URL. Numerous permanent campers are evidence that Rogers' is a popular RV park. And, if the lake's too rough, like when we visited, it's not unusual to land a trophy from the mouth of the river. Jerry and Joani also arrange campground get togethers frequently, like the pot-luck Corn Feed they hosted last Saturday, as a get-to-know your camping neighbor party. Never know, your campground neighbor just might have found the secret honey-hole to drop a line in. To sum it up, I highly recommend Rogers' Campground if you're in the area and need a pleasant, clean, friendly camping experience.

Chris_Wallace Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 That's where we have always kept our sleeper house, Jerry and Joanni are AWESOME!Jerry called us last year to tell us that the road we were on was going to be shut down so that we could get the house in before the road blew shut.He has driven out to our house to double check the propane was off. He has pulled our vehicles out free of charge numerous times.If we forget something he usually has it.Two years ago someone staying in our house put the front on of their van into the wind, so snow blew under the hood, when he ran the motor to warm up, he shut it off and froze the whole block, Jerry towed him in, and than gave him a ride to Blackduck to go home.They run a class act service out of there, highly recommend it. Plus their Pizzas are the best. I know I am going to catch dump from hanson for this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borch Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 We've been staying there the past several Memorial weekends. They run a great place and having the creek there for easy access to sites and the lake is great. I bet the creek will be busy once the season opens for those walleyes.

Dave Posted April 18, 2006 Author Share Posted April 18, 2006 With opener around the corner, I thought I'd highlight this thread about Roger's Campground to all the new FM readers; just incase they haven't heard about it. We can't wait to go back this year. And, I'm sure they'll be busy this opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
