When it comes to finding North Shore accommodations, it can be difficult to find an affordable price. Expensive hotels and resorts dominate the area, with less expensive options filling up fast. Even Airbnbs can be quite pricey, especially during busier times.

But what if we told you there’s a much more affordable way to spend a few nights up north? Camping is an often overlooked way to travel to the North Shore. But there are plenty of great campgrounds that offer comfortable sites packed with amenities. One of our favorites is Indian Point Campground. Read on below to learn more about this spot.

Indian Point Campground is a beautiful campground in Duluth, Minnesota. It’s tucked away along the St. Louis River, just 7 miles from busy Canal Park.
