Discover Lake Bemidji State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

Bemidji is an anglicization of a Native American word, “Bemiji-gau-maug,” which roughly means cutting sideways. Mississippi River cuts through the lake on a diagonal, which is how the lake earned its name. Lake Bemidji State Park and its namesake lake were formed by the last great glacier as it scraped its way north on its retreat, some 10,000 years ago.

Getting Outdoors

Nearly 40 miles of hiking trails wind through the damp woods, over murky green streams, and around bogs. Where bogs are too large to pass around, the paths are piled high with stones and fallen wood to raise the elevation, just inches above the mud slurry lined with algae. Here and there, in hidden damp crevices, rare orchids and lady's slippers peek their heads out, waiting for the next admirer to pass by. This park is home to pitcher’s plants and sundews, which eats plants for nutrition. The early damp mornings are the best times to watch for wildlife. Deer, porcupines, raccoons, and even an occasional black bear wander through the woods in search of forage. Birds are almost raucous as they shake lose the dew from treetops’ leaves as they search for their morning suppers. Evenings, gray treefrogs, spring peepers, and wood frogs sing the song of their people in a croaky chorus as they herald the coming of nighttime. In wintertime, the fun doesn’t stop. Hike, snowshoe, snowmobile, cross-country ski, and ice-fish here as you enjoy the outdoors.

We rented from Renee and were more than pleased with her responsiveness and our experience! She answered questions in advance as we prepared for our trip! too! The camper was extremely clean and well stocked! She took the time to walk us through everything we needed to know regarding operation and set-up. As first-time renters, this was a huge help! We stayed about 30 minutes away from Renee's at the Black Lantern Campground and Resort and were quite pleased with this property, grounds and trails! I would definitely rent from Renee again when the opportunity arises!
