Overview

Overview One of the Chippewa National Forest's most popular campgrounds, Onegume is located on Little Cut Foot Sioux Lake. It is near MN State Highway 46, also known as Avenue of the Pines Scenic Byway, in the heart of the Chippewa National Forest. Visitors come to the area for boating, excellent fishing, 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. Recreation Boating and swimming are popular activities on Little Cut Foot Sioux Lake. Fishing during Minnesota's season opener is historically very good. An accessible fishing dock and fish cleaning station are located on-site. A wooden fishing pier with a few boat slips are located at the water's edge. There is a picnic site located at the water's edge with two picnic tables and an open grassy area overlooking the lake. Miles of trails in the area provide great hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, and birding opportunities. The Simpson Creek Trail and Cut Foot Sioux National Recreation Trail can be accessed in the area. Little Cut Foot Sioux Lake is located next to and provides access to Lake Winnibigoshish. Lake Winnie offers excellent fishing opportunities for walleye, perch, and muskie. It is one of the state's premier fisheries. Boating and water skiing are also popular activities. Facilities This popular campground offers several single-family sites, the majority of which have 30-amp electric hookups. Most sites are large enough to accommodate 38-foot RVs. Each site is equipped with a picnic table and campfire ring. There are three accessible vault toilets and three drinking water spigots throughout the campground. Additionally, there is a fish cleaning building within the campground for camper use. Natural Features The campground is situated between Highway 46 and Little Cut Foot Sioux Lake, on the east side of the road, before the bridge. A scenic forest of birch and red pine trees covers the area, offering shade and privacy between sites. Eleven sites are located on the lakefront. The lake is home to a variety of waterfowl and birds of prey, including loons, osprey, and bald eagles. Nearby Attractions The Cut Foot Sioux Visitor Information Center is just north of the campground. A half-mile accessible trail leads to the center, which offers interpretive displays, educational programs, and area information. Several resorts in the area offer ice cream and other treats, and there is a small convenience store within a couple miles of the campground.
