The Campground… The
Nite Hawk Bar and Grill in Roosevelt has added a
campground to their impressive list of things they offer
the public. Not only do they provide a bar, restaurant
and banquet facility, but now they accommodate campers as
well.
Owners, Ray Pederson,
Richard Johnson and Ron Johnson, began construction of the
campground in 2001. Now they have 9 campsites with water
and electricity complete…and are expecting to open another
15 or 16 in time for fall hunting. |

The Campground at the Nite
Hawk Bar and Grill provides a spacious, rustic area for
campers to relax and enjoy. Each site has plenty of room
and a fire pit. Owner, Ray Pederson says, “ At least when
they camp here, we know they will not be packed in like
sardines. We want people to enjoy their camping
experience. There is no place around like this, and we
hope people enjoy it.”
One unique feature the
campground offers is a man-made pond. Pederson says, “It
worked out great! We needed fill for other parts of the
grounds…so we dug a pond.” The pond has a beautiful rock
border, an island, and will one day hold trout. |

In the future there will 25
sites. The Nite Hawk Bar and Grill Campground will have
showers; toilets and every site will have water and
electricity.
With the campground located
so close to both Lake of the Woods and the Beltrami Island
State Forest, it is anticipated that this fall the grounds
will be filled with outdoor enthusiasts participating in
fall fishing and hunting. If you have further questions
please call the Nite Hawk at 442-2470.
Campground rates: $17 /
