About

Forestville/Mystery Cave State Park's camper cabins offer a comfortable camping experience in southeastern Minnesota's rugged wooded landscape. These 12x16 foot one-room cabins feature bunk beds with mattresses, a table, benches, a screened porch, electricity, and heat for year-round use. Each cabin includes an outdoor picnic table and fire ring with grate for cooking. While cabins lack indoor plumbing, they are situated near seasonal campground restrooms and showers. The park is renowned for Mystery Cave, Minnesota's longest cave, featuring guided tours of stalactites, stalagmites, and underground pools. Above ground, visitors can explore 17 miles of hiking trails through hardwood forests and along blue ribbon trout streams. The historic village of Forestville adds historical interest to the natural setting. Campers should bring bedding, cookware, food, and personal items. The cabins provide an ideal base for exploring the cave system, fishing, hiking, and enjoying southeastern Minnesota's scenic bluff country while having shelter from the elements.

From Preston, MN, take County Road 5 south for 4 miles, then turn east onto County Road 118 and continue for 2 miles to the park entrance.
