Crookston, Minnesota, has begun upgrading Central Park Campgrounds in an effort to enhance visitor experiences. The city confirmed that construction is on schedule and will include the addition of four new campsites and a bathhouse.
City Administrator Corky Reynolds detailed the project’s scope and potential impact. “What we got here is a redesign of the Central Park Campground. We have 17 designated sites, but potentially, if we split some of the larger ones, we could get up to 21, Reynolds said, as quoted in a Krox report.

“It will be moved here over land and will be set by a crane on the concrete footings which had been poured here now, and they are ready for the huff cut four unit bathhouse to be set down on that poured concrete,” Reynolds added.
Constructing bathhouses in the Crookston Central Park Campground renovations aims to provide essential services such as showers and toilets to accommodate both tent campers and those in self-contained units.
In addition, Reynolds emphasized that the design’s elevated construction ensures resilience against high water events.
