Kathio Area Information
The Kathio State Park group camp site is tucked in a lovely grove of trees near the Rum River. Nonetheless, you may not care to sleep on the cold hard ground. If you're looking for lodging, a great source of information is the Mille Lacs Area Tourism Council website. You can also use the site to find links to restaurants, groceries, maps and much more.
You can find more information about Kathio State Park, including maps, activities, additional lodging listings and an area event calendar, at the DNR website for Kathio Park.
We'll be exploring aspects of Greenland native culture over the weekend. But for a glimpse of the lives of the native people in the Mille Lacs region, investigate the Mille Lacs Indian Museum and Trading Post, just a few miles from the Gathering site. Find more details about hours, admission fees and the museum location at the museum website.
And if the weight of your wealth is burdensome to you, you can always check out Grand Casino Mille Lacs, a little more than a stone's throw from Kathio Park. The casino features entertainment, food, lodging, and, of course, gambling.
