Getting Outdoors

Fishing is quite popular in the Lower Prior Lake due to better quality of water. However, you will see anglers all around the water. The fish population in Prior Lake is quite impressive, and anglers might catch hybrid sunfish, black crappie, brown bullhead, bluegill, walleye, and pumpkinseed. The surface of Prior Lake freezes up during winter. Then it becomes a popular ice fishing destination for both locals and visitors. If you forgot to pack the fishing gear into your rental RV, make a stop at one of the bait shops close to the lake. Campers may purchase or rent the equipment they need during the stay at Prior Lake.

Camping at Prior Lake

The unique location of Prior Lake makes it a great spot for camping. Dakotah Meadows RV Park is the closest campground that can accommodate long vehicles.

This was the perfect vehicle for our family trip. The tent was so simple to put up and take down that my teenage kid could do it while I set up / cleaned up our campsite. Very cozy on the inside. We had some very strong wind on our trip and the tent held up fantastically. I drove almost 5,000 miles in 10 days. The seats in the car were very comfortable for this trip. I'm glad we rented this car as it handled nicely on the mountains and smaller roads we travelled vs. a large sleeper van or SUV. We could not have asked more from these hosts. They were both very communicative and responded to any questions / requests we had immediately. I have nothing but amazing things to say about the hosts of this rental. We will be renting again from them in the future. Thank you!
