Tucked against the Canadian border in North Dakota's Turtle Mountains, Lake Metigoshe State Park near Bottineau has EV charging stations on-site. The nearest DC fast charging is in Minot, about 66 miles away, with ChargePoint, Tesla Supercharger, and EV Connect stations. Brandon and Wawanesa, across the line in Manitoba, are a little closer as the crow flies if you are carrying a passport. This is one of the most remote state parks in the region, surrounded by rolling hills and small lakes that feel more like Manitoba than the Great Plains. Top off before the drive up, and treat the on-site stations as a bonus rather than a plan.
