Best RV Parks & Resorts near Arpin, WI

The camp has a lot of long term sites on the waterfront so getting on one usually gets you into spring and camping. The waterfront has mostly electric only sites and run very close to size. We have a 28 5th wheel and we're snug. Site said 25 ft but the picture had a 5'er on it so we booked it. The back sites are ATV/UTV site. They have good access to the trails. They seem a bit bigger. I've seen a few toy haulers back there. There are a few full hookup in the center of the campground but not many. The shower and restrooms were clean. There are larger sites just not all waterfront. We like to travel too much to have a permanent site yet, so we try to come spring and fall here

It’s early in the season so the campground is mostly empty, but this KOA is a convenient stop off the highway for local adventures at the nearby state parks or Elroy Sparta bike trail. The basic amenities are good- level sites, fire pit, a tree, nice store, playground, and a pool in warmer weather. It’s more of a place to park your camper than a destination. The campground is right off the highway, so we can see and hear trucks through the night. But they have some nice perks, like goats and chickens on site. The staff let the kids pet the goats and chickens, and loaned us discs to play disc golf. They have one practice basket in the back. There is a small but very nice playground, bathrooms and showers, and laundry facilities. So I would recommend staying here if you want to visit nearby parks and want the convenience of full hookup spots. Great for an easy pull off the highway on your way to more exciting locations. Since most things are closed due to Covid-19, I can’t comment on nearby activities. A clean and convenient location with very nice owners and staff. We would stay again if passing through.

Although this campsite has spots for tents and pull behind trailers, it was 90% rv Park. The sites were on top of each other and fireworks were being set off all night even though signs are posted about quiet hours and fireworks specifically. There are also ATV trails so we had to listen to that most of the day and night.

Nice campground. hiking, fishing, bike trails. Tent sites 19.00 per night electric sites 25.00 no full Hookup.

We were just there. It’s amazing. Great Lake floats to play on. Nice bar. Tons of carts to rent. Big pull through sites. Full hookup. Bar at the beach. Serves great food.

This park has a lot to offer.

Pros:

- Most of the sites were relatively large. We had 3 tents and 2 cars on our site and it wasn't a problem.

- The lake/beach access is a nice bonus.

- Newer shower house and bathrooms, as well as vault toilets

- Decent trails.

- No apparent highway noise.

Cons:

- Despite the large campsites, it felt very "car campery" to me.  The sites I observed didn't have much in the way of tree canopy, so it feels very open.  

- Lots of campground noise and not secluded.    

So, despite Buckhorn being well-appointed, it just wasn't really the campground for me.  I prefer a more rustic and woodsy atmosphere and this was not it.  I think it is likely better suited for campers/trailers than tents.

Not free! They request that you pay $5 per night on their sign near the entrance! Take an envelope and fill it out and deposit your money- and keep a tag in your car and one on the designated (numbered) campsite. We stayed at campsite 3. We got in pretty late. Small site with outhouse like bathrooms too the left. Small playground. around 11 or 12 spots? Places for RVs and tents. Fire rings. Pic nic tables under a small shelter. Pretty well maintained. Very affordable (although could be free in my option). Decent stop on the way home from a road trip.

Note: I have not camped here yet, but I will be in the summer at the tent sites. 

I have been going to this campground for years, walking around, going to the beaches, launching the family pontoon and fishing in Lake Petenwell. Everyone is always so friendly upon arrival. All of the tent sites are right on the edge, it is the best view of the lake. Other RV spots are partially shaded or full sun depending on the location. 

I have US Cellular, it does work excellent in the area, but is very spotty lakeside. I am not sure what other providers are like. 

There are two other camping areas that also are apart of this park. The second one is down the road a little and is west to the main grounds. It has been there for a while and is a spectacular place for sunsets! The park also just added a third campground right across the street as another option for additional camping. This one is atv/utv friendly where if you are on the trails you can drive right in that area. One thing to note is that they are not allowed in the main campground. There is a small atv entrance about 200ft passed the car entrance where you will need to check in. 

There is a pretty nice beach to relax on, the lake is a little green and mucky sometimes- but hey its a lake! There are playgrounds for the kids to let the energy out and plenty of activities to do in the area.

Overall, I would highly recommend this campground!

Such a wonderful experience! After a bit of uncertainty about how to access the sites (they were listed some places as "canoe in") we were pleasantly surprised to see the sites were just a walk over a bridge :)  All 3 canoe sites are on a small island. (We were lucky enough to be the only people camping at any of the sites!)

 All of the canoe sites are great!  We stayed in site #1 which was closest to the bridge (and bathroom just over the bridge ;) )- nice level site and large. Site #2 was a bit smaller but more secluded. Site #3 was large but wasn't as level (though there was WAY more water access- 3 sides of water views!)   Walk to the sites was not bad at all. 

I would highly recommend these 3 campsites!  We saw the rest of the campground and it looked pretty standard, but these sites are a gem.  Showers are at the main campground, but there is a pit toilet and water access  just across the bridge near the parking area. 

The park/area is really nice too!  The park has a beach, small playground area, a bike trail, and some hiking areas.  Nice lake to canoe or kayak on as well. Plus the nature center has programs too!  The stream had turtles, crayfish, and frogs to check out as well :) 

*check out the Green Circle trail and the Stevens Point Sculpture Garden if you wanna get out of the park :)

Not a lot of free camping in the Minnesota / Wisconsin area. A decent $5 little site about 15 minutes off of 90. Spent the night there while driving back home. Arrived in the night, but was pleased to see bathrooms, shelters, electric hookups, and other amenities in the morning! Great little wooded area, nice roads, solid fire rings, and a little playground all in the area.

From the owner:  Wedges Creek Hideaway is on a double dead end road with several miles of hiking trails, electric hook up, cabins, fully furnished houses, and lots of stars for your next stay in central Wisconsin!  We host weddings and family events along with our popular brick oven pizza and live music weekends in the summer.  Check our our schedule, book ahead and come unwind with us!

Rated this 5-stars for price, availability, cleanliness and ambiance. Pulled in on 6/1 with our 30ft RV and camp was empty with 15-sites to choose from for a quick overnight stop (it is approx 5-miles off I-90, easily accessible, follow Waze). There are no hook-ups for public, despite listing, and a flat $10/night fee per site. Most sites are fairly level and on short grass, two are in a pull up loop for RV (though you could back into many others). Pit toilets, water access, park area for kids, covered group picnic area, and no trash collection (no problem). Host Roger was very nice, keeps place up and shared its history. This camp is close to being 'off the grid' but has cell signal reach. Very nice, quiet night in non-commercial forested area, camping the way I remember it!

We stayed 2 night in sites 13 and 14. The sites are huge and flat with a river running along side. There was no electric hookups even though the description says there is. The pit toilets were as expected.

We had a great time here and can't wait to go back.

30/50 amp on the west side of the street. 30/20 on the east side of the street against the river. Beautiful little city park. Empty when we got here on a Wednesday although it's on a fairly busy road which kinda sucks. Other than that it's nice. No sewer hookups but there is a restroom about 200 yards away near the pool. Restroom was surprisingly clean for a public park restroom. Sites are level and paved. 43mbps TMobile and 24mbps Verizon (visible).

We stayed with a group for Memorial weekend. We have such a great time. Some of our group was tent camping and said the showers were nice and hot but tended to be a little muddy after awhile. Our site was a little hard to get into. We stayed at site 116 with a 40 ft 5th wheel. I would recommend booking early to get a better spot for a big rig. That spot would be easier to get our 30 ft travel trailer into. Water filling stations are all over the campground. It was our first time and we though the dump area was the water station. It was not. Other than that we would definitely recommend.

119 is paved ada 116 can fit a TT and atv trailer comfortably 115 - tight for a 32 ft travel trailer the trees are very close 132 - the area is below the street level which flooded out with mud
