The numbers that decide it

Recreation.gov publishes no site-level detail for this campground, so we cannot say what length of rig it takes. Call the managing office before committing to it in a large vehicle.

Cascade River Rustic Campground

Cascade River Rustic Campground is a small camping area particularly suited to people who are planning to fish in the Cascade River or are looking for a remote place to camp. There are not tables at the campsites, so be prepared to prepare and eat meals like you were backpacking. Fishing requires a valid license from the Minnesota Dept of Natural Resources, and trout fishing requires an additional stamp.
