Mosomo Point

Mosomo Point Campground is located between Little and Big Cut Foot Sioux Lakes, in the heart of the Chippewa National Forest. Visitors enjoy the area for canoeing, trophy muskie fishing, hiking and beautiful scenery. The Chippewa National Forest and the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe work together to co-steward resources - making the forest a great place to recreate as well as a special place where cultural and traditional resources are protected and preserved and the Band's treaty rights are respected. Canoeing, kayaking and fishing are very popular here. The campground's protected location on the lake provides calm waters away from the big lake, making it an ideal spot for flatwater paddling. Miles of trails in the area provide great hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking and birding opportunities, and the Simpson Creek Trail and Cut Foot Sioux National Recreation Area Trail can be accessed nearby. Cut Foot Sioux Lake sits next to Lake Winnibigoshish, one of Minnesota's premier fisheries, with excellent fishing for walleye, perch and muskie and popular boating and water skiing. The campground offers single-unit sites, each equipped with a picnic table and campfire ring. Vault toilets and hand pumps for drinking water are provided. There is a boat access just down the road, and a public fishing pier a few miles before the campground's entrance. The campground sits in a transitional area between Little and Big Cut Foot Sioux Lakes. The quiet cove is lined with mature red and white pine trees, and the lake is home to a variety of waterfowl and birds of prey, including loons, osprey and bald eagles. The Cut Foot Sioux Visitor Information Center, a half-mile from the campground, offers interpretive displays, educational programs, trails and area information.
