RV Rental Lewis and Clark State Park, ND

Located on Lake Sakakawea's north shore, Lewis and Clark State Park is a haven for watersports enthusiasts. It features its own sheltered marina for boats of 20 to 50 feet long, and canoe, stand-up paddleboard, and kayak rentals are available at the marina over summer.

A boat ramp is provided to ensure easy access to the water. There's also a fish cleaning station on hand when you need to prepare the day's catch for that night's dinner. Anglers in Lewis and Clark State Park can target northern pike, sauger, walleye, and more, so it's well worth remembering to pack your rod for the trip.

Other Lewis and Clark State Park campers simply prefer cruising around the lake and taking in the lovely views of the rolling hills and imposing buttes that surround the water. It's a relaxing and peaceful way to get around, especially if you're paddling.

The other main attraction is, of course, swimming. With a sandy swimming beach just a stone's throw from the campground, you don't have too far to travel when you need to cool off in the summer months.

Away from the water, the other major activity in Lewis and Clark State Park is hiking. Four trails wind their way throughout the park, each of which offers a unique experience for walkers. The short Prairie Nature Trail is great for families, offering an easy, self-guided trek through native prairie and past several interpretive stations. If you're keen to tackle something a little longer, the lovely water views along the three-mile Shoreline Trail make it well worth the effort.
