Available Nov 13–15 · 2 nights4 sites open for every nightA forested campground near trout fishing, and hiking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.
Trail's End Campground sits at the end of the Gunflint Trail in the northern reach of Superior National Forest, immediately adjacent to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW). The campground fronts the Seagull River and provides direct water access to Seagull, Gull and Saganaga Lakes, so paddling and fishing are the dominant draws: expect anglers to be after walleye, northern pike, smallmouth bass and lake trout, while paddlers can follow routes that begin at any of the four BWCAW entry points (54, 55, J and K).













Length limits vary by campsite.

“Great if you’re wanting to be secluded! My site had a little trail down to the lake. Beautiful place to stay for a few nights.”
“Didn’t appreciate the A Class RV across from us in space 12, running their generator for multiple hours in the early evening. In a small campground like this one, generators should not be run during the supper hours.”

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.
Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (9,108 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
