Great when visiting Bayfield / the Apostle Islands
This is a first come first served city campground, which is a good thing because each site is so different that it would be difficult to make a good choice in advance. Some sites are difficult/ impossible for RVs and some are fine. We are in a 26ft class c and felt really big- they have a 30ft max limit for RVs. Some (I believe 18& 19?) are grouped together so they would make a good choice for friends and family camping together. There are also some primitive tent walk-up sites.
Nice campground, $30/night, can pay online when you arrive. Good cell reception. Most, if not all, sites have 30 and 20 amp service. There are no water or sewer hookups here, and no dump station. No showers. There are a couple of trash dumpsters throughout the campground but no recycling. There are water spigots throughout the campground too (not for filling RV tanks, but for filling water jugs).
Easy walk to town, not quite a mile, and there is a sidewalk for most (not all) of the way. There are some nice walking paths around the campground, with benches positioned to view each of the Apostle Islands.
Mosquitos were surprisingly not too bad here. We had a really pleasant and relaxing night’s stay here. The town of Bayfield is really cute and the ferry rides to the islands are a must.

beautiful & rustic yet close to town
we arrived friday around 1pm with a couple spots to choose from. we had site 27. it was a primitive site which entailed a small walk through the woods from parking to the spot. it had a little view of the lake though mostly blocked by trees. there are plenty of sites on the bluff overlooking the water though. the only complaint I have is that it’s rather expensive ($30) given the minimal maintenence they seem to do. trees could be trimmed to provide better views and the bathrooms were pretty unkept, but that’s to be expected. super conveniently located close to town but still feels woodsy
Quiet RV on the water
RV under 30’ or Tent. First come first serve but not super busy during the week. Some have water, some have Elec. #30 and a few have Lake Superior views. Only $30 and 1 mile from town of Bayfield.
