Discover Lake Waconia RV rentals for memorable road trips
Formerly known as Clearwater Lake, the lake was renamed to Lake Waconia to avoid confusion with another lake with the same name. A few locals stubbornly continue to refer to Lake Waconia as Clearwater Lake, and this often confuses out-of-town visitors. The name, Waconia, was chosen in a nod to the Sioux Native Americans who once lived and hunted in the area. Waconia is a Sioux word that means fountain or spring.

Getting Outdoors
The land around Lake Waconia is barely high enough to keep the water contained within this round bowl. Tall oak, maple, and other deciduous trees line the shores. Close to the banks, they provide a windbreak as well as a shade that fish and other aquatic life enjoy. Out near the center of the lake, however, the water is reported to get choppy in light breezes, which may make for a fun boating trip.
Camping at Lake Waconia
Though it’s every outdoor lover’s dream to wake up to the serene sound of waves lapping at the shore and birdsong in the trees, there is no RV camping at Lake Waconia. However, there are several options nearby. Just minutes away in Victoria, MN, is Lake Auburn campground. Though the campground is primitive, there are faucets with drinking water available, and each site has a fire ring.
Exploring the Area
Many people will eyeball Minneapolis, and why not? It’s a terrific little city with loads of charm, friendly locals, and an active urban scene. There are endless art galleries, museums, theater, restaurants, comedy clubs, and nightclubs. Watch the Minnesota Twins play at the baseball stadium, too. The streets aren’t too challenging to navigate with an RV rental. But there’s plenty of public transport if alternative means of getting around the city is needed.

We had a great experience renting this camper! Alexandra was great, and the camper was clean and prepped for us with everything we needed. We removed the dining table and our pack 'n play fit perfectly. :)
