The Great Lakes Region of the Upper Midwest is known for its rolling farmlands and spatterings of major cities.

Located on the border of Minnesota and Wisconsin on the St. Croix River is Afton State Park. Only about 1,600 acres, this park is on the smaller side, but if quaint is what you’re looking for, then this is your place.

Getting Outdoors

In order to keep the natural wilderness intact, the park doesn’t provide much outside of the basic campsites. As far as amenities go, you'll find very few creature comforts, but the visitors' center supplies firewood, drinking water, and both flush and vault toilets.

Exploring the Area

Is there a golfer in your crew? Once your Afton RV camping trip is through and you’re looking to see what else is nearby, head up to Stillwater, MN to the Applewood Hills Golf Course. Work on your swing on an 18-hole course located within an actual apple grove. The trees don’t interfere with the green, but their beautiful aroma will follow you throughout the day.

Recent RV rental reviews in Afton State Park

We recently rented Jon's RV for a family trip and had a great experience from start to finish. On time at pickup and dropoff, which we really appreciated — no waiting around, just a smooth handoff and we were on our way. The RV itself was clean, well-maintained, and drove exactly as described. Everything was in great working order.

This was my first time using a van, and I was doing a dry run with the intention of someday building a van out. Thomas was easy to work with and walked me through all the systems and answered all my questions. I purposely rented it out during the winter season to get a sense of what it might be like in potentially less-than-perfect weather. The van, though a rental for the last two or so years, per Thomas, was in great shape, everything worked as needed, kept Jake, my camping dog companion, warm and comfortable, and it was easy to use overall and drive for a first-timer. Jake and I had a wonderful time and truly enjoyed it immensely. I highly recommend anyone dreaming of doing a van build to rent before you build, and doing it with VanVan is easy and a no-brainer.
