General Store (if you need or forgot something)
This is a great general store for any of your needs, especially for camping or traveling. They also have a lot of groceries. It's hard to find good stores in rural Minnesota, but this one I recommend.

This gas station is pretty great for rural Minnesota. Get a slushy while you charge your Tesla because it's also one of the only gas stations in while that has Tesla chargers, and it's only a mile away from the campground. You're welcome.

Food scene
Highly recommend this cute little eatery about 30 minutes away from Old Soul Camp. Midwest comfort food with a modern twist. Specialty coffees, beer and wine, comfort food. This is also my shameless plug because it's mine. Give it a try! We have a little selfie museum on site too. : )

Camp Kayaks
You'll want to schedule time to kayak! We a several camp kayaks for all our guests to use. It's a great spot to get on the water and up close and personal with lake life. There are 3 Kayaks located by the bait house next to the boat landing for easy water access. The provided life jackets must be in the kayak or worn during use. Guests assume all risk while using. Please put kayaks back where found and leave tipped on side or completely turned over, so waiter/rain doesn’t fill the kayak while not in use. Keep the paddles next the the kayak as well.

Camp Paddleboat
We also have a 4 person paddle boat available for guest use. It is located on the boat lift by the old bait house. Life Jackets are in the front “porch” of baithouse. If you can’t get boat back on boat lift, please lift boat (try not to drag…Please don't drag the by the rudder!!). Make sure boat landing is clear (for emergency purposes) and place on ground near kayaks.
