Campgrounds and RV parks near Spicer, MN

Green Lake is the main draw, with public swimming beaches, boat launches, and rentals for kayaks, paddleboards, and pontoons available in town and at lakeside parks. Fishing is strong for walleye, northern pike, bass, crappie, and sunfish across Green Lake, Nest Lake, and nearby waters. Sibley State Park adds hiking on more than eighteen miles of trails, the climb to the Mount Tom observation tower at 1,375 feet, a swimming beach on Lake Andrew, and a canoe route linking Swan, Henschien, Andrew, and Middle lakes. Birders can look for more than two hundred recorded species in the park, including nesting Red-shouldered Hawks. Families often round out a trip with mini-golf and go-kart attractions in Spicer, cycling on the Glacial Lakes State Trail, and Monson Lake State Park for quieter paddling and fishing.

The prime RV season runs from the Minnesota fishing opener in mid-May through late September. Summer brings warm days ideal for swimming and boating, and it is also the busiest window. Kandiyohi County parks, including Green Lake County Park, typically open around the fishing opener and run through the fall season. Late spring and early fall are quieter and cooler, with active bird migration and fall color at Sibley State Park. Sibley's Oak Ridge and Lakeview campgrounds are open roughly April through November, with drinking water, showers, and dump-station service available mid-May through mid-October. Camper cabins at Sibley are heated and offered year-round, with limited winter days. Winter shifts the area into cross-country skiing and ice fishing. Sibley State Park keeps limited facilities open, with roughly eight miles of intermediate to challenging ski trails, and Green Lake County Park rents ice houses for anglers. Most private RV parks and county campgrounds close once temperatures drop below freezing.

Sites vary widely by park. WestRich RV Park and Campground offers full-hookup sites with 30 and 50 amp service near Green Lake. Green Lake County Park has lakeside RV sites and a handful of tent spots, with many seasonal renters, so short-term availability is tight in peak summer. At Sibley State Park, Oak Ridge Campground is wooded with more privacy, while Lakeview Campground sits closer to the beach with more open sites and was rebuilt in 2025 with modern facilities. Both accept RVs up to seventy feet, though the park advises against rigs over sixty feet due to tight corners and narrow, hilly roads. Only electric hookups are available at state park sites, with a shared dump station serving both campgrounds. Minnesota does not allow campers to bring their own firewood into state parks; purchase it on site. Expect mosquitoes and wood ticks in summer, and pack levelers, since many sites are not perfectly flat.
