Just a quick update. The water is on to the shower house. Water to the sites could be a different story. I checked today and the septic lines in the campground are still frozen. Will post updates as spring progresses. Hope for some warm sunny days ahead.
Due to the weather, the opening of the bathrooms will be delayed at least a week.
Listed below are area road construction projects that could impact travel times to the campground. 2025 looks to be a bit slower than last year, but the list of scheduled projects for 2026 looks to have greater impact than this year. Road construction is an annual headache that we all know to well.
MnDOT will update and improve eight Hwy 169 bridges (four in each direction) through Princeton. Plan for delays. Motorists can expect 24–7 head-to-head traffic.
Resurface both directions of Hwy 210 between Baxter Dr. and Timberwood Dr. and improve access and traffic flow west of Highland Scenic Rd.
Construct new interchanges on Hwy 10 at Ramsey Blvd. and Sunfish Lake Blvd. including bridges over the BNSF Railroad tracks. Build a frontage road between Ramsey Blvd. and Sunfish Lake Blvd.
Just a quick reminder to everyone, HLCCA is a seasonal campground and as such the operating license through the State of Minnesota is only for seasonal use.
All that being said, the board is not going to actively police the grounds as members are expected to follow the rules of the Association. Adverse actions resulting from a members use of HLC in the off season (i.e. a fine from the State for violating the terms of the license) will be assessed to the violating members unit (site).
If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to the board,
HLCCA Board of Directors

Since the bathrooms were shut down at the end of October, Haley has came in after school and when she has had free time to put a fresh coat of paint on the inside. This was the last major project on the list to get done this year. She painted the entire building this year, inside and out. She did a great job!
Just a reminder that the annual election is now underway. Check your email for the link to your secure ballot.
