Saturday brings the Coffee Camper with espresso and baked goods, tie-dye, relay races, a bags tournament, and a DJ dance party that night. Sunday morning we serve up a pancake breakfast, stream a church service, and close out with candy bar bingo. It's three full days of campground fun.

It's quirky, it's fun, and the kids absolutely love it.

Fall: Closing Out the Season

Labor Day Weekend — September 5–7

The last big weekend of the season goes out with a bang. Friday kicks off with relay races and dirty sodas. Saturday features a scavenger hunt, horseshoe tournament, and pancake breakfast. Sunday closes things out with bingo, a cribbage tournament, and a church livestream. It's the perfect send-off to a great summer.

Book Early — Holiday Weekends Fill Fast

Memorial Day, 4th of July, Christmas in July, and Labor Day weekends are our most popular dates and tend to sell out well in advance. If you're planning around those weekends, we recommend booking as soon as possible.

Camp Everyday Winona sits on 80 acres of bluff country along the Mississippi River, with full-hookup RV sites, tent camping, a seasonal pool, fire rings, and a camp store. Whether you're here for a weekend or the whole summer, there's always something going on.

We can't wait to see you on the bluffs this season.
