  Lake Wissota State Park Campground

  Fantastic view of the lake

  Continuing my quest to visit as many Wisconsin state parks as possible. I stopped by here to check out the campsites for potential future camping and look over the park. When I found was a very well-maintained park, love the viewing area of the lake. Campsites looked good as well.

  Eagle Ridge Campground

  This place is great for Starlink!

  If you’ve been anywhere in Minnesota or Wisconsin, you know about all the trees! As other reviews mention, this campground has a large grassy area - that gives a 100% clear obstruction for Starlink. We work full time, so this was important for us. HOWEVER, the other half of the campground is within a super treed area, so we got to pick!

  The bathrooms were sparkling clean. The showers were hot and the laundry was reasonably priced. Had I known how much we liked the area, we would’ve stayed longer. 10/10 would recommend.

  Lake Wissota State Park Campground

  Crowded, but lots to do

  I'll start by saying that I like privacy and quiet and nature when I camp, otherwise I'd be staying in a hotel.  But we were looking to get away for a weekend during the COVID times, and site 65E was the only powered site available for that weekend in all of the Wisconsin state parks, so we decided to go for it.  If you're the social type with active young kids, that spot is perfect - it backs up to a large open field with cool playground equipment and has a trail to the field right next to the camper.  You're also right next to the water faucet (plenty of people will stop to chat there) and across the street from the pit toilets. It's a VERY busy site.  If I return, I'll pick site 107E, which is extremely private and far from everything.  In general, the 100+ sites looked to be on the quiet, private side of the campground, although not all had power.  Some of the unpowered sites. 69-79, had great lake views and were surprisingly spacious, although a hiking trail is between them and the lake.  In late July, the loop starting with site 41 is absolutely teeming with ripe blackberries.

  The shower houses have little notes on them apologizing for their state and saying they're scheduled for an overhaul soon because they're almost 50 years old.  So definitely go in with low expectations.  Few of the stalls for the flush toilets had working doors, and while the showers themselves worked ok, there were no hooks, shelves, or anywhere inside to place your belongings.  My shower bag randomly has a suction cup and I optimistically tried to use it to stick to the pink tile wall, but even that didn't work.  Such is life.  Mirrors above the sinks were the polished metal type.

  The pit toilets in the campsite have two stalls in each, so don't be surprised if you end up with a buddy.

  The hiking trails around the park are great, nice long loops, and the ranger/park employee at the check-in area was very nice and knowledgable.  We rented a kayak and paddled around the lake for a couple of hours - single and double kayaks as well as canoes are available for rent for the day.  There was a rocky beach with so many signs up warning about different types of algae that we weren't sure if it was safe to swim or not, but definitely too gross to regardless.  I didn't see anyone else in the water either.  

  If it's a clear night, the field with the playground equipment is a great place to sit and stargaze, as the park gets very dark at night.  We were even able to catch a few meteors!

  Thornapple River Campground

  Quiet, Relaxing

  It’s a small campground, not a lot of campsites. There is electric and water service available. The hosts will pump your tanks for a $10 fee. The Thorneapple River is a sleepy, winding river. There are campsites right on the river. You can float or wade in it; it’s shallow and refreshing. Great little secret campground. Stores are about 7 minutes away.

  Nice spot tucked away in neighborhood

  This is a nice park with a variety of sites. If you can book lakefront with a dock those are the best. Others are quote small and tight for big rigs. Their measurements on their website are accurate. We arrived and didn't think we would fit bit did.

  Myron County Park

  Creepy.

  Have not camped here but drove through a couple times. No thanks. It's a county Park where the county obviously doesn't invest much $$ into. It is on a river though, where there is some kind of tubing set up.

  Big Falls County Park

  Large Campsites!

  This campground and campsites are large and you can hear the falls in the background. Each site comes with a picnic table and wood that looks like leftovers from a lumber mill in the area. The campground is primitive with new power, water or sewer but there is an out house near the park. The park is well maintained and the grass is cut which helps out with the mosquitoes. If you're looking for a quiet spot in the middle of the woods, this is your spot!

  Clean campground

  Sites are spread out with woods between the sites. Flush toilets with token operated showers. Waterfront sites are usually full, but shallow boat ramp for trailers is close by. Fishing pier and trails to get kayaks in the water are accessible from the main campgrounds. ATV trail close by but didn’t hear any even on the weekend.

  Relax in the Woods

  There are tons of sites across three loops, spaced apart with picnic tables, fire pits, and plenty of room. Most sites are level– we were only staying one night and didn’t even need to unhook our pickup. The lake is very close with a trail to a beach and dock. The bathrooms have flush toilets and showers. We didn’t have our ATVs with us, but the trails looked like narrow gravel roads. It wasn’t busy– on a Thursday in July only about¼ of the sites were taken. We had one bar on Verizon.

  Tent worms!

  This memorial weekend was horrible! Tent worms had infested the campground! Dropping from the trees and landing on you and all your belongings! Had picnic tables fully cobwebbed. Grass wasn’t mowed, was told that they mowed beginning of season! Playground was wet and with high grass!

  Chippewa NF Campground

  Peaceful and Wooded

  We stayed here for our annual family and friend camping event. We had group sites 52 and 53. The group sites are not much bigger than regular sites at many campgrounds I've been to. They are also very picky about the number of "wheels" on each site. This is specified on the rules when you reserve and they aren't kidding. There is a campground host on each loop. We were on the Hardwoods Loop which did not have electricity but several other loops did. Our sites were lake side so it was nice to have a path to walk down to get to the boats right there.

  All sites are heavily wooded in all the loops so solar is not a good option here. The fish cleaning house is nice and there were many pan fish caught by our group. There is lots of room between most sites and lots of wooded area between our site and the lake. There are very few houses on this flowage as it primarily belongs to the national forest. There is a bar nearby that sells very expensive ice and has a small bait shop but we didn't mind supporting the locals.

  There is a dump station here and potable water available. Flush toilet  and shower buildings on several loops but No Soap or hand dryer. The Feds are all worried about COVID but you don't get soap and when we left it in the bathroom for our use, the rangers threw it away! Go figure! All in all a good place

  There were dumpsters here for garbage as well as recycling so please save your plastic, glass and cans to place into the recycle bin

  Lake Wissota State Park Campground

  Rainy Weekend Review

  We spent two nights at Lake Wissota State Park tent camping in site 30. The site was very deep, and very private with lots of tree coverage on all sides to block out any noise and most of the light from your camping neighbors. The water source was a little far away (about 200 yards) but we were located near the bathroom and showers. The shower facilities were mediocre, but about what you'd expect at a state park.
  Park has a swimming beach and several miles of trails.

  Worth taking a trip into town and walking up and down the main street. Visit the local shops, and make sure to visit Leinenkugel's brewery for a tour and a pint, but don't over look the Brewster Bros. Brewing Company and the Chippewa River Distillery, also located right in Chippewa Falls.

  Very private campsites!

  Very woodsy! Mosquitoes, gnats, and bugs galore. Beach is nice, even better that they have a seperate beach area for your leashed dog! (Its where my little terrier learned how to swim:)

  Lake Wissota State Park Campground

  Wonderful Experience

  We selected site 67E online based on the campsite map and photo provided on the online reservation site. While al of the sites were very private - lots of trees and underbrush between, this one and 65E were ideally situated for dual sites. Fortunately, we were able to set everything up to be relatively private and quiet.

  The bathroom/shower facilities were very clean and centrally located, pit toilets were provided at much closer intervals, and there were lots of water fountains located throughout the entire park.

  The hiking was amazing! We went on a 5-mile hike through fern and pine forests, prairie and grassland habitats, and an abandoned beaver pond.

  We highly recommend this park both for camping and hiking!

  We like this one for a quick weekend retreat. Lake access is great on one of the best and bigger lakes in the area. Great place for boating with the family.

  Lake Wissota State Park

  Lake Wissota State Park is located in and around Chippewa Falls, WI. My sisters and I came up here once growing up and had a ball. It was just north of Chicago (near where we lived), so it wasn’t far. From my recollection, the grounds were fairly wooded, had an array of wildlife and there was a ton to do in terms of swimming, hiking, canoeing or just enjoying the sights. Wish I had pictures to share.

  Great Campground with Private Sites

  You'd never know that your neighbor is super close to you in this campground.  The sites are really private with tall trees and lots of greenery/foliage between each site.  There is a lot to explore in the park.  The bathrooms are decent - we found quite a few bugs and frogs in the bathrooms but we didn't mind.

  Beautiful

  Camped at Lake Wissota for 3 days. First time there and really liked it. Nice private sites and the beach looked great but it was too cold for swimming. Got in a canoe ride before the rain. No bugs I guess it was too cool. Bath house in bad need of updating which they're planning on but I've been in worse. Awesome park rangers. Did some local site seeing and I highly recommend lunch in Cornell at Dylan's Dairy. Had the best breakfast at Kelly Grill in Stanley across from the old depot. Nice get away despite the rain.
