ScoutThis campground charges both a site reservation fee ($33 for a primitive mosquito infested tent site) AND an additional day use fee on top of that - a $16 fee on top of that! $49????? For a no hook up single tent site???? Of course the fees aren’t actually published anywhere so you have to reserve it to actually know what you’ll be paying. It’s nothing special so these fees aren’t actually warranted for this place. 👎
TravelerThere’s a lot of things to do out here. We did some hiking with our boy. The site we were at was maintained. It’s a nice place to go camping.
LegendThere’s something wonderfully EZ about camping where the kids can wander down toward the water and suddenly the whole weekend seems to slow down ... and that’s the entire charm of Honeysuckle Hollow. Here at Chain O’Lakes State Park, Honeysuckle Hollow is the largest and most wide open of the park’s camping areas, with electric sites geared particularly well toward RV families, although the tradeoff is noticeably less shade and almost zero privacy between nearly every campsite, compared with neighboring Fox Den, which offers up much more seclusion and shade. The greatest asset here is undoubtedly the direct access to Turner Lake (although you could also have direct access over at Turner Lake South), giving families an EZ place to fish, paddle or simply explore the shoreline, while electric hookups, picnic tables, grills and a nearby restroom/shower building keep the actual camping comfortably simple. We especially loved those unhurried moments when the boys could wander toward the lake while dinner was getting started and everyone seemed perfectly happy just being outside together. The shower facility here is convenient, although we found it just slightly more dilapidated conditions than the bathhouse located closer to Fox Den. From what we saw, I’d choose one of the better-spaced sites toward the Turner Lake side of the campground, where EZ water access helps compensate for Honeysuckle’s limited privacy. I’d recommend Honeysuckle for families who value electricity, lake access and a lively campground atmosphere, particularly if having Turner Lake practically in your backyard matters more than having your neighbors hidden behind the trees. One point to note is that the pier was in an advanced state of disrepair and so we were not able to fully maximize this particular amenity - so if accessing Turner Lake is important to you and your family, we would recommend calling ahead to verify the condition of the pier.
GuideFor a primitive campground, this was a nice-enough experience.
Pros:
- The sites we stayed in and the others that we noticed seemed sizeable and had nice tree-cover
- Having access to the Ice Age Trail was really neat
- Lake access nearby
Cons:
- On the continuum of vault toilet quality, these were on the less-desirable end. We joked about whether it was scarier to visit them when they were dark or when the lights were on. If you love having fly friends keep you company when nature calls, then these are the bathrooms for you! The bathrooms did get cleaned on Sunday morning, but this didn't help the situation very much.
- No showers
Traveler⭐ 1/5— Not a Family-Friendly Experience We have traveled by motorhome for many years and stayed at numerous KOA campgrounds. For many years ! Sadly, this is the first negative review we have ever written. Milton KOA is beautiful and clean, although the sites are somewhat crowded. Most staff members were polite and helpful. Unfortunately, the conduct of one employee was completely unacceptable. Our group included six families with children ages 3–18. This employee used profanity, including the“F-word,” toward the children and behaved in a verbally abusive and threatening manner. When one mother calmly tried to address the situation, the employee moved toward her aggressively, causing her to fear she might be struck, and shouted,“I’m sick and tired of this.” At approximately 9:45 p.m., the 18-year-olds in our group were ordered back to their campsite, even though they were simply walking around and were not being loud or disruptive. Adults were allowed to drink in the pool area, while our children were treated with hostility and disrespect just for being there. No food no drinks.No child or parent should experience profanity, intimidation, or threatening behavior from a campground employee. The campground may be enjoyable for adults traveling without children. However, based on what our six families experienced, we cannot recommend Milton KOA to families with children. We are submitting a formal complaint to KOA Corporate and requesting a thorough investigation. Also, wasp infestation beware if you have allergies .
TravelerWonderful family spirt. Great clean showers and bathroom. Pool. Large campstore with lots of amenities.
ScoutStaff is friendly and attentive. Well maintained sites. Definitely family friendly. Lots of kids. Nice pool and clubhouse. We will come back.
GuideIt was a bit of a drive to Chicago but nothing overly horrible. We went in October and it was very busy. Lost of activities for the family. We arrived very late but the staff was very gracious and hospitable. The grounds were well kept. They had trash pick up. Nice laundry area. The surrounding area was very nice and rural. We took our dogs on the architecture boat tour.
GuideOur friends have a permanent camper here so we joined them for the weekend. I’ve never experienced a place like this. It’s not what I would consider camping. It’s basically people’s second trailer park home. The frog pond that was turned into a swimming hole with ridiculous inflatables completely ruined the peaceful atmosphere in that area of the park. If you enjoy being surrounded by people, noise, and teens cruising in golf carts, you’ll love this place. We do have fun when we are with our friends here, but it is definitely not a typical peaceful camp.

Summers in the area typically see average high temperatures around 80°F from June through August, with notably more humidity than western Wisconsin. Most campgrounds operate seasonally, typically closing between mid-October and early May due to Wisconsin's winter weather conditions.
Tubing on the Sugar River: At Crazy Horse Campground in Brodhead, campers can enjoy free kayaking with shuttle service. "They provide at no charge kayaks and a shuttle to a drop-off point which you can kayak back down to the campground which takes about an hour and a half they space out the shuttles very well so you are not running into the people from the last shuttle," notes David H. The Sugar River is also perfect for tubing with "If you have a second vehicle you can continue on down river another eight miles which is approximately six hours to the next point."
Hiking trails and springs: Ottawa Lake Campground offers excellent hiking opportunities with access to natural springs. "The campground was close to our intended hiking trail — the Scuppernong section of the Ice Age Trail. It's absolutely gorgeous and will be why we come back again," writes Linda N. Another visitor noted, "Hiking to see the natural springs which is the coolest!! Drank fresh spring water!"
Swimming and beach activities: Several campgrounds feature swimming options. Sweet Minihaha Campground's river access provides cooling options during hot summer days. Thomas Woods Campground includes "a pond for fishing" and "Great hiking trails," according to Tricia E., making it ideal for those seeking a variety of outdoor activities within walking distance of their campsite.
Private, wooded sites: Thomas Woods Campground offers secluded camping spots. "This was a well laid out campground, with some sites right on the roads and some buried back in the woods away from everyone (we chose the latter and felt like we had the place to ourselves)," reports Hallie B. Another camper mentioned, "Larger site for an RV but I used a tent only. I enjoyed the fact the site was further off the main road which allowed for more privacy."
Well-maintained facilities: Milton-Madison SE KOA consistently receives praise for its upkeep. One camper mentioned, "Bathrooms are fantastic and recently upgraded. Very nice playground, and pool area with hot tub. The pool area is well maintained with a waterfall feature." The campground also features "large recreational fields to play sports/games" and "most of the roads were paved and some were gravel but very well maintained."
Proximity to Lake Geneva: For those seeking glamping close to Beloit, Wisconsin with easy access to tourist attractions, Big Foot Beach State Park offers convenience. As one camper noted, "Nice spot to stay if you want to avoid paying lake Geneva prices for a room." Sites are described as "nice large sites. gravel spot for arc/trailer. fire pit and picnic table. trails for hiking are nice, but the overall camping area isn't very big."
Seasonal operation: Most campgrounds near Beloit operate from spring to fall. At Lake Kegonsa State Park Campground, campers may encounter train noise: "The freight train that came through around midnight and then again at 2 am. The first train only blew its horn a few short times. The second train acted like someone was laying on the tracks and was a little excessive for 3 am!" Additionally, "mosquitos are oblivious to the bug spray" in wooded areas.
Varied camping experiences: Snug Harbor Inn Campground offers tiered camping with lake views. "Great three tiered camping spot. Full hookup, and great views. Has a pub/restaurant with good food," reports Alix M. Meanwhile, Lakeland Camping Resort is described by a visitor as "a large lake resort with mostly permanent seasonal units," noting it's "not your best choice" if seeking "a secluded, nature setting."
Booking considerations: Crazy Horse Campground offers river sites but requires advance planning. "They get very busy on weekends and holidays you have to book in advance," explains one camper. At Sweet Minihaha Campground, staff availability can be inconsistent: "Maybe because we were one of the only people there the staff didn't keep regular hours."
Look for campgrounds with dedicated activities: Big Foot Beach State Park Campground offers family-friendly amenities. "Great place to quickly get in and set up, easy access to all amenities, the ranger station, and camp hosts if needed. Good fishing ponds for the kids, and great hiking trails throughout the property," writes Brenton S. The park also features "a playground with horse she pits" that kids enjoy.
Consider spacious sites for multiple tents: Some campgrounds offer double sites ideal for families. At Thomas Woods, one camper reported: "We were at site 4 which is electric hookup and it was a huge area! The kids had so much space to run around and explore. They loved the well pump." The campground also features "trails were very easy and was a nice walk."
Seek campgrounds with water features: Crazy Horse Campground offers multiple family-friendly water activities. "Lots for kids to do and adults, I highly recommend," notes Lauren P. The campground includes "a pool, petting zoo, kayaks, rocky beach, dog park, and a land pillow" according to another visitor, providing diverse entertainment options for children of different ages.
Watch for site access challenges: At Scenic Ridge Campground, leveling can be difficult. "Our site was downhill so that presented quite the challenge to level out," notes Steven P. Meanwhile, at Lake Kegonsa State Park, RVers should be cautious of low clearance hazards: "There is an oak tree near entry with low branches and it took the AC off our friend's fifth wheel. There is also a low hanging overpass and it took the roofs off TWO fifth wheels while we were staying there."
Consider full hookup availability: Snug Harbor Inn Campground provides complete services. "Full hookup, and great views. Has a pub/restaurant with good food. Lots to do!" reports Alix M. The campground is "Beautiful views overlooking Turtle Lake. Friendly and helpful staff," making it suitable for those seeking glamping options near Beloit with conveniences.
Check site spacing: Milton KOA offers well-spaced sites for larger rigs. "The sites were of decent size, some smaller than others and some very generous sites. I would recommend viewing their map and comparing to google maps," advises one RVer. Another camper noted, "We had a back in site which was easy to navigate into and was mostly level."
