$67 after tax for primitive. Overpriced. Nice place though. Easy to get in. Great for kids, but those us passing through…don’t.
6 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Several RV campgrounds surround Camp Douglas, Wisconsin, with options ranging from year-round full-hookup parks to seasonal resorts with pull-through sites. Ho-Chunk RV Resort & Campground in nearby Lyndon Station operates year-round with full hookup sites featuring 50-amp service and big rig accessibility. Just 30 minutes away, Whiskey Creek Family RV Park provides 55 sites with both 30 and 50-amp electrical options, gravel pads, and sewer connections. Country Roads Motorhome & RV Park in Wisconsin Dells caters exclusively to RVs with pull-through sites and operates from mid-April through early October. "The sites are gravel and logically positioned utilities. All site are pretty level with gravel pad," notes one visitor to Fox Hill RV Park, which features both back-in and pull-through options. Neshonoc Lakeside in West Salem offers spacious RV sites with lake views and full hookups.
For RV campers planning trips to the Camp Douglas area, most RV campgrounds require reservations, especially during summer months when Wisconsin Dells attractions draw heavy traffic. Dump stations are available at nearly all RV campgrounds in the region, with on-site propane refill services at select locations like Coloma Camperland. Cell service varies throughout the region, with visitors reporting 1-2 bars on AT&T at some campgrounds. Pet-friendly policies are standard across most RV parks, though specific restrictions may apply. Highway noise can be a factor at parks near I-90/94, particularly at Oakdale KOA where one reviewer noted: "The campground is super easy to get to as it is adjacent to I-90 which means you'll also deal with highway noise." Many parks offer on-site conveniences including laundry facilities, camp stores with basic supplies, and firewood sales, making them practical bases for exploring the region's attractions.
"Beautiful area, sites are situated with the terrain which can make them interesting to get into. They're gravel and mostly level. Good wifi which is purchased separately."
"We were able to have 3 pop ups and 2 tents on 3 sites. We also rented a cabin for the great grandparents. All sites and cabin were clean. Bathrooms were also clean."
"We were impressed by this little gem not too far from the Wisconsin Dells. At has amenities similar to the larger resort campgrounds but keeps a charming in the woods campground feel."
"Rentals for golf carts are available and a store on site. Arcade for the kids. Public showers were also free if needed. "
"It feels like a true old-school “campground” not an rv resort or even an RV park. The kind of campground you loved as a kid. It is hilly with mature trees, although not every site has shade."
"This campground came to us through Thousand Trails Collection. At first we only had a W/E site and later was able to move to a full hook up site. "
"Definitely recommend for a seasonal home away from home"

"They have a store, a bar, coin op laundry, a pool, a clean little pond & a great playground... tons to do to keep busy!"
"Pool and kiddie pool were clean and the beach/pond was so nice. If your in the back get a golf cart because the walk to the front where everything is is far."
"Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin Dells RV Park is a nice option if you want an easy RV stay close to the casino and Wisconsin Dells attractions."
"Laundry was less expensive than most laundromats we’ve used this year. Everything worked great. We also enjoyed the trails around, but had to pick a ton of ticks off our dogs!"
"We were able to check in online and drive right to our campsite, to get our enjoyment started right away. Our spot, F-2, was right across from the playground and great for my kiddo."
"The new section will be a lot better next year, but *just* finished construction and it is still a wide open area."
from $45 - $85 / night

It’s a great place to stay they have lots of activities for the kids, it helps that they are year around and their prices aren’t bad.
Site B 4H campground. Very spacious site, very far away from any other campsites. Down a trail between some cornfields. Has a fire pit and a wood log as a seat. There are no other amenities. Very clean no trash. It’s a backpack in sight. Plenty of down firewood to use. There really isn’t any water close by. But a short walk you can get to some water to filter by campsite D. If you want it further walk, there’s some small creeks that you can filter from. There will literally be no one around you except maybe some visiting coyotes.
Fantastic little park in the forest, and can't be beat for $7 per night! Camped here in October last in 43-ft motorhome and found a spot which had good sun for our solar. UTV trail entrances at campground, as well as hiking up and around the beautiful rock formations. No elec or water =no problem if you're used to dispersed camping anyway!
Stay here for a long weekend. The weather finally cooled down. Great hiking and beautiful views. There’s a lake for swimming and boating without motors. Very hilly area. We stayed at a double site and met relatives.
I biked into the park and was assisted by the campground host. The swimming area was closed for the season but there was much to see and explore. There was no way to pay in person at the campground. The cost was $27 per night but there was a hefty $10 processing fee. A bit high.
Last minute phone call reservation...early evening...We told the lady on the phone we would be arriving late...She stated she would email me specifics on the camp site etc. For one reason or another I never received the email. We arrived about 11pm. No information left for us in regards to site etc.,so we found what looked like an easy site to back into for the night. I made contact again via telephone with the same lady to get bath house code and mentioned to her that I never received the email....She was very nice and polite. Perhaps an envelope with information left out in addition to an email may have helped. However it was a nice campground, clean, safe, and secure ,Decent level lot with elec and water...Dump station on site.....I would use this campground again if I'm ever in the area. Even when you hit a snag such as not getting the check in email it sure is nice to hear a pleasant voice at the other end of the line.
Quiet, beautiful and good facilities. Showers .25 for 5 minutes. We are here midweek in September so even the occupied sites only have people staying there in the weekends.
I was a little skeptical after a negative review about the regular residents, so I watched for that dynamic. We were camping with another family so we had 8 kids between the two of us and I was worried all those kiddos would upset people. Quite the opposite experience from that review and it motivated me to leave this one to help provide a good picture. I have nothing bad to say about our camping experience. We did go a little out of season (September 12) so a lot of the campsites were empty. Most their sites are flat, and clean. The grass was well mowed and maintained. They had activities for the kids (Halloween). People that drove by were friendly and smiling, and waiving. We had people drop off candy for the kids asking parents first. We had people offer basketballs for our kids to use while they were away from their site. Me and my friend were about to haul ice bags and wood up a huge hill on foot and someone stopped their golf cart and emptied it of what they were carrying to give us a ride to our campsite. The kids tootled about on their bikes being kids with no negative experiences. There were a couple of kids on motor scooters whose engines were kind of obnoxious but that’s going to happen more and more at campgrounds, and it wasn’t during quiet hours. We had sites atop the “full Lakeview” and it was honestly surprising how beautiful it was up there. I think it can be difficult to get a view when you’re camping but those sites had it. We knew the full lake view sites were open so we took the cheaper ones across from them, but still saw the same view. There was a great amount of space between the sites we used. The only possible critique I might offer is in that specific row there weren’t many trees for shade, but the weather was cooler so it didn’t affect us, but if we went in the summer it might have been more uncomfortable without that natural shade. The bath houses and showers were great!!! I feel like a good bath house can make or break a campsite and we’ve been to some smaller ones that were quite lacking but this one was great. Very clean, not many bugs, spacious, real doors on the shower stalls. We did not arrive in season to utilize the pool area but it looked great from the other side of the gate ;) - the parks were well maintained and the kids loved them. there was a set of stairs that went from up the hill down to the office that looked a little sketchy but they were closed off for use. If you didn’t have a golf cart or couldn’t ride a bike, the trek from where we stayed to the office might be a challenge. Overall we loved it and would definitely consider going again. The sites were a little pricey but had on site sewer hookup which is fantastic.
