Camping options near Luxemburg, Wisconsin range from county-managed sites to private RV parks throughout Brown and Door counties. The area features lakeside camping along Green Bay at elevations between 580-800 feet, with cool evening temperatures even in summer months. Late spring through mid-October offers optimal camping conditions when most facilities remain open.
What to do
Water activities at Tranquil Timbers: Located next to Potawatomi State Park, this campground provides convenient access to water recreation. "Located right next door to Potowatami State Park we were able to ride bike out of campground and directly only to state park trail," notes one camper at Tranquil Timbers.
Explore nearby towns: The village of Kewaunee offers waterfront attractions within a short drive. "Kewaunee is delightful with a lighthouse, stores and eateries. Minutes to Lake Michigan and Door County few miles away and 35 minutes into Green Bay," according to a visitor at Kewaunee RV & Campground.
Winter activities: Unlike most seasonal campgrounds, some facilities remain open through colder months. "The indoor pool is so nice! It's a saltwater pool and they have a separate hot tub. It was not crowded the time we went but I'm sure it can get busy (maybe more in winter since it's indoors)," reports a camper at Village Inn on the Lake.
What campers like
Wooded privacy: Many campgrounds offer secluded sites despite being close to amenities. "I was surprised that each site is pretty wooded making you feel like you don't have neighbors. The surrounding area is just expansive farmlands which is beautiful to look at when walking the dog in the morning," shared a visitor at Rustic Timbers Door County Camping.
Family-friendly amenities: Recreational facilities for children are commonly highlighted. "It has a pool for kids both older and small. It's very peaceful and quiet. I felt we got a lot of rest at night because it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop most nights," notes a reviewer at Tranquil Timbers.
Fishing opportunities: Several campgrounds maintain stocked fishing ponds. "Peaceful quiet campground with a nice pool, well stocked fishing pond for catch and release. Only downside, there is nothing to do at this campground, and you have to drive 30 minutes to the city," mentions a camper at Apple Creek Campground.
What you should know
Site drainage issues: After rainfall, some campgrounds experience flooding. "Everything was very clean and even with the campground full it was nice and quiet. The spots are beautiful and shaded. Rain does cause many of the spots to flood," reports a camper at Bay Shore Park.
Limited or no dump stations: Not all RV campgrounds near Luxemburg, Wisconsin provide onsite sewage disposal. "Wouldn't consider this an rv site. Very small spaces (16) right by the road. NO DUMP STATION AT ALL. No garbage dumpster. Water and electric only," warns a visitor at Countryside Motel & RV Sites.
Seasonal availability: Most campgrounds operate from May through October, with varying opening dates. "Stayed in a pull through full hookup 30amp site with our Class C in the fall, and the leaves were beautiful. This campground is very convenient to many of the places in Door County for visitors," notes a camper at HTR Door County.
Tips for camping with families
Playground access: Multiple campgrounds feature play areas with varying equipment. "They have fun kid things but you have to pay extra to use them. They have a free playground (old school looking, lots of metal haha) that my kids had a lot of fun on so that's good," mentions a visitor at Rustic Timbers Door County Camping.
Swimming options: Pool facilities vary significantly between campgrounds. "The kids love this place! With 2 pools, water slide, and splash pad, they are always busy and happy! The bathroom and shower building is wonderful and kept very clean," shares a camper at Door County KOA Holiday.
Entertainment schedule: Some campgrounds organize themed events throughout the season. "While we were there it was Christmas in July and many campers had decorated. There were hayrides to view the decorations," notes a visitor at Rustic Timbers.
Tips from RVers
Site selection: Not all sites accommodate larger rigs equally. "My wife and I usually do not like being so close to other campers... but we decided to stay here cause it's close to my in-laws. We wanted septic and they didn't tell us that the septic is a guy in a truck who comes by one or two times a week," reports an RVer at Apple Creek Campground.
Leveling challenges: Some campgrounds feature uneven terrain. "We stayed 6 nights in our 36 ft motor home with tow. Even though we were on a hill the campsite was level. We had plenty of room for rv and tow," notes a visitor at Apple Creek.
Noise considerations: Highway proximity affects some rv campgrounds in Luxemburg, Wisconsin. "What wasn't so great was the proximity to the interstate, unfortunately, there is no changing that," mentions an RVer at Apple Creek Campground.
