Summer Camping - Twin Cities, MN - Counselor Realty

Spring and summer are fantastic times for camping around the Twin Cities, so the fact that National Camping Month happens in June is very fitting for our region. Before you get ready to head out for your campsite, however, it's worth making a stop at one of many great, local outdoor shops near Minneapolis homes for sale and Saint Paul homes for sale to pick up all of the supplies you'll need. We've got all the details on where to find five excellent Twin Cities outdoor shops to grab the latest gear just in time for National Camping Month.

  • Midwest Mountaineering – 309 Cedar Ave. S., Minneapolis, MN 55454
    Even if climbing a mountain isn't on your camping itinerary, Midwest Mountaineering is sure to have something that will enhance the enjoyment of your next outdoor adventure. They offer a little bit of everything, from the latest in tent technology to all the furniture and accessories that help maximize your enjoyment of every minute around the campsite. With a knowledgeable team and a busy schedule of classes, this is also a great place to learn more about spending time outdoors.

  • Tyrol Ski & Sports – 1923 2nd St. SW, Rochester, MN 55902
    The team at Tyrol Ski & Sports offers gear for every season at a convenient location around the corner from Rochester homes for sale. This is an especially good place to shop for outdoor clothing that can withstand the elements, in addition to important accessories like backpacks and sleeping bags. They also have a great lineup of tents, with options to suit every budget.

  • Joe's Sporting Goods – 33 E. County Rd. B, St. Paul, MN 55117
    New to camping and want a store where you'll find expert advice in addition to a full lineup of all the latest products? Joe's Sporting Goods has you covered, with an expansive selection overseen by a knowledgeable team always ready to answer your questions and pick just the right items for your needs. Joe's Sporting Goods was voted Minnesota's Best by the Star Tribune Readers' Choice voting and offers some excellent classes in addition to outdoor equipment.

  • Sportsman's Guide Retail Store – 490 Hardman Ave. S., South St. Paul, MN 55075
    You might already be familiar with Sportsman's Guide from their online store, which offers all of the latest and greatest gear for your favorite outdoor activities. But did you know that the Sportsman's Guide Retail Store is located in South St. Paul? They stock gear for every type of camping, from tents and tools that will keep you comfortable in the wilderness to all the latest RV accessories.

  • Repair Lair – 3304 E. Lake St., Minneapolis, MN 55406
    Given the investment required for top-of-the-line outdoor gear, it's often well worth getting items repaired rather than replacing them. In addition to stocking plenty of great used equipment at excellent prices, the team at Repair Lair specializes in repairing outdoor clothing, camping equipment, and more. Stop by to get all of your equipment in like-new shape for the camping season, shop for hard-to-find used items not stocked at every shop, and perhaps even put a few of your unused items on consignment to help pay for new gear.

Living in the Twin Cities means you're never far from your next outdoor adventure, and our team would love to help you find a home in your favorite city. Call today for help with all of your Twin Cities real estate needs.
