Marion Lake Watercraft Campsite

Duluth, Minnesota

About

The Marion Lake Watercraft Campsite is located on the Cloquet River Water Trail, offering a remote and primitive experience amidst vast forested banks. The river features a diverse fish population, including northern pike, walleye, and brook trout, as well as various turtle species. Visitors can expect medium to heavy stream flow, making it suitable for an enjoyable run through the river's rapids. However, the river can rise quickly after heavy rains, and portages are available for Class II rapids. The campsite is available on a first-come, first-served basis and does not require a fee. It is essential to follow the rules for firewood, use designated toilet facilities, and stay off private property. The area is home to various wildlife, including bald eagles, deer, and otter, and offers several public campsites for longer trips. The river's health depends on a healthy environment, and visitors are encouraged to protect it by cleaning off aquatic plants and animals, draining water, and disposing of unwanted bait in the trash.
