Retreat into the North
Just north of Grand Rapids, this jewel of the North is one of Camp Fire Minnesota’s best kept secrets (but not anymore!). With access to hundreds of miles of trails through the Chippewa National Forest and part of the Wabana Chain of Lakes, Camp Bluewater is relaxing, fun and always beautiful. Camp Bluewater hosts our sleep-away overnight camps Northwoods Adventure Canoe Trip and Teen Bluewater Getaway, plus Family Camp. It is also a picturesque natural setting for exclusive-use retreats, reunions and outdoor adventures for youth and adults.
