Campground Map

Big Rock Creek is a 980 acre estate so this map just shows the campground area and the area around the campground. The Clubhouse, Family Cabin and Elroys are cabins rented out to guests. The Barn is a public space unless we have a private event happening. 

Area Tips

St. Croix Falls Wisconsin is just across the river from Taylors Falls, MN and about 45 minutes from Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN. If you've been to the area before you know the St. Croix river is an amazing attraction to the area and brings people back! The landscape and topography at Big Rock Creek in St. Croix Falls is amazing! Big Beautiful bluffs and 200 year old White Oak trees litter the property and the St. Croix river area! Not to mention all of the amazing lakes in the area such as Balsam Lake, Wappogassett, Turtle Lake, Deer Lake and many, many more!

Absolutely a great place to go, it’s beautiful and can’t wait to go again in the winter. Now for the bad, I would not camp there again, for those that need to use a bath house, the temporary shower house is terrible. I’m hoping they invest in the future in a nice permanent shower house. Which would fit the rest of the property.

We stayed at the campground in our 5th wheel for 3.5 days. Such a pretty place, but campground was very uneven and hard to walk around the sites; would recommend bringing in dirt and leveling them out. Pretty views and we biked around; need to be prepared for rough bike trails but was fun. Would be fun to bring small children to enjoy the beach, animals, etc. Lots of mosquitos; we are used to campgrounds that spray, but we handled it. Staff was very nice and kind; I'm assuming August is their slow month. We will try make the trip again now that we have seen the area. Would recommend to others.

Nice location. But be aware that if camping there is a big hill to walk up. Very far from the lake. Not much for the kids to do. Must fly fish with no live bait or barbed flies. Got Permission for my grandson to fish but then got questioned by others. Also be aware that there are events going on with other people who are not there to camp and it could be loud.

Campground Response

Hi Vickie! Your right the campground is about 500 feet from the campground and there is a small hill. We do not allow anything other than fly fishing in order to protect the trout as they are very sensitive to barbed hooks:) This is all thoroughly posted on our website and we have signs around the grounds to make sure everyone is aware of the fishing policies:) If someone gave you permission you have to expect that those that are aware of our policies may question that as they are just doing there job. Thanks again for staying with us!

Had a very pleasant stay at Big Rock Creek, and we are excited to see how they grow into their property in coming years! Enjoyed the well-groomed trails and bar + music on Friday night, and we'll definitely be back. Property is HUGE with lots of lodging and camping options. They have a somewhat unique business model, as they are simultaneously an event (weddings) venue, so weekends can be busy, but the place is so big there is room for all without feeling invaded. Campground showers were somewhat in disarray (screen had holes, water pressure and control not great), but despite these being pretty important to campers, I wouldn't hold it against them in the long term, as they got the job done, and these appeared to be temporary buildings as they develop the property.

Big Rock Creek is a perfect outdoor family vacation. From glamping tents, bike rides, kayaking, and more! It is a great option for those that like to spend time outdoors, and have adventures ready to go without much work. We loved the Friday event and can not say enough about the staff. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Our youngest attended the day camp and had a blast. Amber did a fabulous job planning a full day of fun!

My family and myself stayed at Big rock creek for a week. Very clean, staff is amazing, friendly, and helpful. This place is so magical. We enjoyed finding out about the rich history on this property. We took rides on the trails, and listened to the creek, birds singing, and watching the wild life as it passed by so closely. We will definitely be staying here a ton. If you are a avid outdoors man or women this is the place for you. Big rock creek is a place that is full of adventure, fun, and peace. It has a family oriented atmosphere. This is a slice of heaven on earth. A must check out place.

We had such an incredible time staying at big rock creek this past weekend! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We toured the wedding venue and it is breathtaking! Our kids had a blast with cow yoga and playing on the playgrounds and in the lake! They have done so well dealing with mosquitoes we only encountered a couple the whole weekend!!! We absolutely loved the sauna and cold plunge! 10/10 recommend this place and we will absolutely be back!!!

BRC NEVER DISAPPOINTS!!! We enjoyed the live music and meat raffle on Friday. Who could complain about a Bloody Mary bar on Saturday morning (or Screwdrivers )The lights were beautiful ( Christmas lights in June are much better than December!!! ) Rented the Yellow Banana and cruised around the property, super fun! The staff are more than accommodating. Friendly, knowledgeable, punctual and very funny. Thanks BRC for a wonderful second stay. Maybe see you this winter but for sure next summer!

Beautiful place. Our first time here. We camped in the campground area. The site was uneven surrounding our camper but this may be due to a wet spring. We enjoyed the Friday night food truck and entertainment, hiking, water biking, kayaking and visiting the cows and goats. This resort offers many amenities and rental activities. As the camping fees are on the higher end, I would suggest offering these rental activities at more reasonable rates which would increase their usage and thus the resort's income. The resort's income would also increase by having the gift shop open. We had to ask about the wifi so I suggest including this on all the information given at checkin. Also, we walked the 3- mile loop. If you include the uphill walk to the cabin in the woods/scenic overlook, the walk is 5.5 miles (you may want to note the length and difficulty of this added walking option). Personnel and guests were all friendly.

Was just ok. Was told it was a packed weekend when we drove in. Hardly anyone there, no food or bar available as advertised. Dogs could not walk down on gravel road had to stay in a grassy area and our dog was loaded with ticks. Luckily she is on a flea and tick preventative. People next to us did not pick up dog poop. There was a prom at the campground Saturday night and we weren’t notified.
