Visit

Mesaba Park offers 240 acres of woodlands surrounding the spring-fed waters of Lake North Star. Twelve campsites, five with electrical hook-ups, are set among beautiful woods. Four rustic cabins and a yurt provide sleeping facilities. One restroom and shower building serves the park. A wood-heated sauna is available for use by members.

The Park’s historic pavilion was constructed in the 1930’s by members. The upper level of the historic pavilion has a dance hall with hardwood maple floor and a performance stage ideal for speakers, musicians, and presentations. The dance hall can seat 200 people. The pavilion’s lower level consists of a large kitchen and dining hall capable of seating 100.
