Apple River County Park Campground

Paddlers and anglers will find direct water access at Apple River County Park Campground, a small county-managed facility with 15 basic sites designed primarily for tent camping. Five sites include electrical hookups for small RVs or vans. The wooded grounds feature vault toilets, drinking water, and picnic tables, with a day-use area that includes a group shelter and playground.

The campground works well as a staging point for multi-day river trips, with easy paddling routes connecting to D N Campground upstream and the town of Amery downstream. At $15 per night, it provides affordable access to fishing and water recreation rather than serving as a destination campground.

Primitive county park campground

This is a small county campground with 15  simple campsites geared towards tent camping, though 5 of the sites are equipped with electricity so folks with vans or small trailers might be comfortable here. The park is nicely wooded and there are basic facilities such as water and vault toilets. They are adjacent day use areas including a group picnic shelter and playground. This is a good spot for fishing, and canoeing or kayaking https://amerywi.gov/432/Canoeing-Kayaking and there are other activities in and around the nearby town of Amery. 

I might not camp here as a destination vacation spot, but it might be a good stopover if on a weekend paddling trip. You could start at the DN Campground of vicinity further north https://thedyrt.com/camping/undefined/d-n-campground, then paddle a nice easy day trip to this campground, and then the next day paddle into the town of Amery and pull out there.

The camping is currently closed for the season, and will be have repairs and needed upgrades. It would be worth checking in spring 2021 to review the improvements!
