Does this Minnesota state park have the country's best restroom? You can help decide

A restroom at a state park in northern Minnesota could be named the country's best – if it gets enough votes, that is.

The restroom and shower building at Bear Head Lake State Park in Ely is one of nine finalists in Cintas’ America’s Best Restroom Contest. Any restroom in the U.S. that is open to the public is eligible for the contest, and the finalists were selected by Cintas from publicly submitted nominees.

“We’re searching for restrooms that offer more than just functionality, but deliver a memorable, hygienic and innovative experience for guests,” Emily Ramos, Cintas' marketing director, said in a news release.

Here's what Cintas' website says about the Bear Head Lake State Park restroom.

"Nestled within one of Minnesota’s most beloved parks, the restroom and shower building at Bear Head Lake State Park provides more than just function – it offers thoughtful design in a stunning setting.
