The best camping near Pokegama Dam guide

Overview

About

The Pokegama Dam provides a vital service to the surrounding area, sure. Know what else it provides? Good times. The reservoir’s pristine water makes this an absolutely killer spot for the boaters and fishers among us. And like front row seats to a sold-out show, each of the dam’s campsites have a priceless view of the Mississippi, in all its glittering glory.

Now, being so close to the river is bound to make you impatient to saddle up and enjoy it. Only a short walk from the sites, a bit north of the dam, the boat ramp gives you the perfect place to push off. So pack your tent, load the waterskis, and gas up the boat, because this water is just waiting for your wake.
