FINAL UPDATE:

2018, 2019, and 2020 closed... this once lovely park keeps fading away as nature reclaims it.  So sad.  The only thing left in the village is Bobbers, an open lumber storage building converted into a biker bar.

UPDATE:

After flooding the Spring of 2017, the park never recovered. Also, the Fuller House closed.  I will visit in 2018, and hopefully be able to update this review…I really missed the place this past Summer!

If you are looking for showers, activities, company, and plenty of picnic tables and fire pits, this is not the place for you. If you want to get away, have 98% certainty of being alone, and feel like you are camping on a farm, you have to check this out. There is the noise from the highway, but it is better than most Yogi Bears that I have been to. The unique thing here is that the small town of Winslow (350) put in an artesian well, and they have plumbed it to the campground…every site, all 10 of them, have a spicket with wonderful fresh water. It is easiest to leave your camping fee in an envelope in the donation box at the Paradise Cove, a park worth visiting. Nearby is a gas station with a small grocery section. On Friday and Saturdays, the Fuller House Restaurant is open, with many teas, great coffee, and home baked scones etc. In the evening they serve a dozen or so entrées, and the food is very good. Be sure to check the history of Doc Carver if you stop…you will be amazed. Also, guess where Philadelphia Cream Cheese originated from?! All of this is within a 3 block walk! Biking will take you to Warren IL, where there are several good restaurants. There is Browntown WI, which has the highly rated Hawk's Mill Winery with the lowest cost wine tastings I have seen, and excellent snacks available. For those who want to bike further, you can catch the Cheese County Trail in to Monroe WI (trail pass required). Now, ready for this? $3 for tents, $5 for RV's, and a whooping $6 if you have air conditioning! There simply isn't a better value for getting away from it all. I just hope I haven't ruined my secret!
