The
restroom and shower building at the state park provides more than just
function; it offers thoughtful design in a stunning setting. With a fully
accessible layout that meets all ADA guidelines, this facility ensures
comfort for all visitors. The exterior dishwashing sinks are a camper-friendly
touch, providing a convenient space to clean up without trekking back to
a waterless site.
“We
are thrilled to receive the 2025 Best Restroom Award,” said Jody Popesh,
Park Supervisor at Bear Head Lake State Park. “People don’t always think
about restrooms when they’re planning a state park trip, but restrooms
play an important role in providing comfort, accessibility and a positive
overall experience. This award affirms the Minnesota Department of Natural
Resources’ commitment to creating welcoming spaces for all visitors, down
to the smallest details.”
