    This relatively new state park in Minnesota is a treasure -- a beautiful example of Minnesota lake…read morecountry with rolling hills, forests, creeks, trails and camping. I hiked a few miles towards the end of the day and saw an eagle swoop down to grab a fish out of the lake. I shot photos of birds that I had not seen before and a young buck hiding in the birch forest. A variety of wild flowers were in bloom. Be warned that you need to apply insect repellent since ticks abound. There are both paved and unpaved path, and it is obvious that the park was well-planned. There is even a cemetery for pets. It's a must visit if you are in the area.

    I stayed at Glendalough with my girlfriend and some friends last year in the winter time. We…read morestayed for three nights, I think, in one of their spectacular cabins. The cabins are easy to get to, and although there was a ton of snow that year, it was pretty manageable to deal with the cold, and very warm inside. You just pull or push a cart with your gear to the cabins, which aren't more than a half mile or so. The cabins have four bunks, a great table, a bench, and other amenities. They are amazingly cozy and comfortable and can easily accomodate four or more people. We did a bunch of snowshoeing while there and the park is beautiful, even in the winter. Everything was sort of frozen in time and the amount of snow made snowshoeing a real adventure. I fell down a couple times and had to be helped up. Anyway, I would certainly recommend Glendalough any time of year, but their great cabins make for a nice winter getaway as well. There is some neat history and several lakes here also that would be a lot of fun in warmer weather.

    There are two areas in this park to hike meadowbrook and bonanza. We hiked short trails in both…read more Meadowbrook was mostly a trail cut into a field. It had some nice wildflowers and butterflies to check out along the way. As it was only a mile, it was a nice way to stretch the legs. The hiking club trail is at the bonanza area which is about 11 miles from Meadowbrook. It's a walk along the lake which takes you to a small waterfall which is colored red from the iron in the water. We saw several deer, a turkey family, and a few frogs along the path. Nice hike. The gentleman in the visitor center was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

    We are prairie fans!!! Loved the hikes. (If you like the prairie setting visit Blue Mound.)

We had one of the few electrical sites. Park wasn't busy. This place is a secret?! There was a boat landing and parking lot adjacent to the campground. This is a fishing lake. Didn't see any water sports or even any swimming. As big as the lake is, it has a pond feel near the edge with algae and weeds. We still went in at the little beach area. Call us HOT and desperate. We found there was a big spring area in the water where it was literally freezing. I have felt cold spots in lakes before, but this was a big area where you could walk or stand on sand that was as cold as ice. ReFreshing! The staff comes by a couple times a day if you have questions. Otherwise there is a building with some tshirts and smore sticks where he hangs out.

Quiet, spacious, beautiful, clean, and great customer service. The sites are large and have great grass for you and your pups to enjoy. Summit has a higher altitude than other places in South Dakota so it has perfect summer weather, a few degrees cooler than everyone else and a light breeze to make it perfect. The owners Larry and Gilda are the best. They do so much to make all their guest feel at home. And they are great community members as well. Let's face it the town is small and doesn't have a lot to offer outside of fishing and hunting, but Larry and Gilda keep the store stocked with essentials and keep you informed about thing going on the in the area. This year they even started an Ice Cream Truck and let me tell you the Ice Cream is Fabulous! People come from all around for tasty treats. They also host a weekly music jam session. Most of the players are locals that are wonderful players but campers who are passing through also join in. All playing levels are encourage to join in. I am a beginning player and they welcomed me in. Each week playing with this great group has made me a better player. An added bonus they built a Dollar General this summer right on Hwy 12 where you turn to go into Summit. It is sure an added bonus to be able to get those needed items without having to drive. I highly suggest you stop over here for a night or more you won't be sorry.
