Lake of the Falls County Park, near Mercer, Wisconsin, is a straightforward camping spot that caters to those looking to enjoy the great outdoors without too much fuss. With three separate camping loops, you’ll find a mix of tent and RV sites, some right by the water, perfect for launching a boat or just soaking in the views.

The park allows for campfires, and you can bring your pets along, making it a decent choice for families. Visitors have mentioned that the fishing is solid, and kids can enjoy swimming in the lake. However, if you’re hoping for extensive hiking trails or a playground nearby, you might need to venture a bit further into town.

Facilities are basic, with toilets available but no showers on site, so be sure to bring quarters if you want to clean up. The scenery around the campground is pretty nice, especially if you take a stroll along the water or check out the nearby waterfalls. Just keep in mind that some sites are pretty close together, so privacy can be a bit limited.

If you’re looking for a quiet spot to kick back and enjoy some time on the water, Lake of the Falls County Park could be just what you need.

Not Much To It

Stayed on side 1 (there are 3 sides). We were site 4. Campsites are right in a row and pretty close together. The mosquitoes were terrible. Not a lot to do with young kids (ours were 8, 6, and 18 months old). It's great for those that want to boat, kayak., canoe, or fish. Our family likes to hike and there aren't many hiking trails. The only playground for our littles was about 15 minutes away, but it did include a beach area. This was in the town of Mercer.

Side 2 is all tent sites...I believe no electric.

Side 3 had the showers and dump station. Be sure to take quarters fornthe showers.

We most likely won't visit again.

Fine but not stunning

Not much privacy at the sites. Facilities kind of minimal. The scenery in the surrounding area is pretty good though, as is the fishing. Kids swam a lot in the lake. There's a pay boat launch.

Hard to find but enjoyable once you do

There are 3 separate camps here. We stayed in the quiet one- site 2. It is the only one without electric. Our campsite was right on the water. Our neighbor, another Dyrt camper!, launched his boat right from his site. We explored the trail behind site 14 and walked along the waterfall. The bridge takes you to another camp section. We walked down the road to see a restaurant with lodging. Plenty of other cottages along the water too.

The town of Mercer is 15 minutes away and that was our only Verizon cell signal - but a strong one. The showers are in a different camp and take quarters. There isn’t a sign to let you know where this campground is. We drove down the road and had to turn around. Otherwise this was a peaceful place to camp.

Near Mercer, WI

There are 3 separate loops for camping at this park. We stayed in #19 which is in area 2. We reserved through the park website the week before due to Covid, all sites had to be reserved ahead. It says these are tent sites but we had our truck camper no problem. We also pulled our boat right up to our site even though it said the site wasn’t waterfront. Great site, nice toilet, no showers. Boat landing very close by in another of the camping loops. Very close to waterfalls. Quiet. Lost a star because it’s very difficult to find, no signage along the road. Great body of water. Bar restaurant in sight of campground but no noise associated with that. We stayed 9/25/20 to 9/28/20
