    S’Mores Campground

    Wonderful family weekend

    I took my daughter and her friend here for the weekend, 10 years old. We rented a cabin for the weekend. Amazing cabins, amazing setup, they all have picnic tables and benches on porch. Cabin had three beds, fridge, air conditioner, two windows, plenty of plugs in. Bring your own sleeping bags/towels and etc as these are not provided. Fire ring provided down the stairs from us, even further down was the huge extremely clean pool, bathrooms, showers. Both of which were amazing! And free of use. Pool is very well maintained and kept, plenty of chairs to use and tables. Right next to the pool was a huge and brand new kids play area. They also have rock mining for kids located by the pool which the kids loved. They also liked the store; a lot of neat things in there for adults, kids, camp, and even animal friends. Commons area which is open at the front, made for a nice sitting to relax. Also located on the beach which was nice to see and the dock area was nice, kids liked it. The set up is great, a little confusing the first time but easy to learn. All of the Cabins were close except for the first two which were at the entrance of the park and bigger. They were two rooms compared to our one room. Permanent residence were extremely nice, the campsite is privately owned and operated which we loved and met the owners. We will certainly be back again! Additional information that may be helpful since I researched this campsite extensively May 15 th to October 6th is the campsites open/ closed dates. Check in for campsites and yurts are different. Campsites is at 2, cabin and hurts 3pm but we checked in early about a half hour. No additional charge. Animals welcome, must be leased and friendly. If you have visitors must be gone by 9pm- they actually let my husband stay with no additional charge or fee and accommodated our two vehicles. Otherwise one vehicle per cabin. Location was extremely easy with the signs directly off of highway. Not far from town, if you need something or go to store there; they probably have what you need. Basic sites, some with piers overlooking the beach and huge! Beautiful absolutely will camp there with our tent. Pull through and deluxe sites, seasonal sites, decks, and dogi pots(hint hint). All campsites babe electric and water, the yurt is amazing! It comes with couch, beds, tables, and so much more! It is located on the water scenery and a little more private by being set back. Yurt also has heat and ac; wouldn’t mind staying there in early May or late September. Outdoor picnic area, plenty of room for about 15 people and includes setting in a circular setting located directly by the playground/ pool and playroom. They have events as well, the kids and I not only used the mining system by the office but we watched a movie by the playground area- it was amazing and free! Camping lakeside or not lakeside. There was a secluded campsite and raised above, number 155- I’d suggest this one for anyone who want to get a way and be alone. It was a nice site and I didn’t notice it until we left. The cabin we rented was$80 a night, non refundable since it was last minute. This included two adults and up to four kids. I could see how four kids would easily fit because of the bunk beds and queen bed in our cabin. Oh forgot to mention there was also a microwave in the room and a broom, garbage bins. The door was rustic and still has a lock on it but it was the pulley door which the kids loved. To my understanding there are no pets allowed in the yurt. Also the only, one and only thing I didn’t like was that wood couldn’t be purchased else where. The wood purchased there burnt fast and didn’t last long, we only used it to cook food on our tripod due to how fast the wood burnt. Although there was also a park grill on the cabin premises too which we didn’t use; very used and had nothing to clean it with. There are seasonal sites, I don’t know how much they are but it’s a very quiet campground and everyone folllowed rules for the quiet time. Another thing I noticed is the seasonal all keep their yards very well maintained. They had beautiful landscape, yards were mowed, and nice fences- porches- decor- and sheds. Camp owner/ host lives directly across from the check in office/ store so that was comforting knowing someone was at the gate at all times. We walked down to the beach, lake area. At the tome it was being worked on but it was still beautiful and very quiet. No bugs in this area either. You can make reservations on line, see pictures on line, rates on line, and see the camp map. If i has to recommend any sites it’d be 151 for tenting and wanting to be alone, away from everyone. Campsite number 17 for camping with a tent/ pop up because it over looks the beach and has a huge deck to sit on, have dinner on or drink coffee while watching the beach another three sites I’d recommend, tents only is number 61 63 or 65. They are down further than the rest of the campsites, they are also a little more secluded and with a beach view. This would be perfect for a set of three friends camping together to rent. This is also main entrance to beach are. I also wouldn’t mind renting the first cabin when you enter campground as it’s bigger. There is one cabin I wouldn’t suggest and that’s 106. It’s in the middle of a triangle area for traffic. It was exactly across from our cabin and a lot of traffic going by it from many different ways. Finally thanks S’mores for the amazing stay; they truly accommodated us and we appreciate it.

    Sleepy Hollow Farms

    Convenient to the highway

    General: There is both a north and a south part to this campground with a total of 178 sites. The sites in the south part are all on a grassy field and there is a small man-made lake with an inflatable play area. The sites in the north part are a mix of full hook-up and tent sites. There are also small cabins (only one of which has a bathroom) and three “condos”. These all had air-conditioners, but I did not see the inside of them. The north unit features a pond, which I was disappointed to discover was algae-filled and completely green. 

    Site Quality: Some are pull-through and some back-in. Some sites have electric and water hookups, some have picnic tables, and some have fire rings (but not all sites have all of these amenities). Only a handful have concrete pads; the rest are all on grass. 

    Our impression of Sleepy Hollow was influenced in part by the fact that it poured rain for much of our overnight stay. The roads were all dirt and with the rain, became very muddy along with the campsites as well. When leaving the next day, we had some challenges backing out of our site with the amount of mud. There is no clear delineation between the sites other than where the electric and water hookups are placed. 

    Bathhouse: Was very clean (in both the north and south units of the campground). Showers are available for a fee (five minutes for$1.00) but we did not use them so cannot comment on how well they worked. 

    Activities/Amenities: In the south unit, there is a small manmade lake with an inflatable play structure and plenty of life jackets. The color is a beautiful Caribbean blue, but it did not look natural, and I was not sure of the source of the color. We were there on a weekday in September, and no one was using the lake. There is a small bar and grill (in the north section) and a concession (south unit) on-site, but both were closed when we were there. Firewood was available (15 pieces for $10); we asked and were granted permission to use the golf cart to bring the wood to our site. Other than the lake, there really is nothing offered for recreation. 

    We chose this campground for its location; it is very close to Highway 41 in Oshkosh (you will hear road noise) and we were meeting family there. We checked in online the day before and arrived at 3:30 pm. No one was in the office when we arrived but the family members we were meeting had arranged for us to camp in the site next to them (not the original one we had selected). This campground is VERY close to EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association), and I imagine it would be completely full during the annual EAA convention. For us, it was a convenient location but aside from spending time with our family, the reason we chose this campground.

    Hickory Oaks Campground

    Best option in Oshkosh

    All the other campgrounds in OshKosh are near the airport, which makes sense since the biggest event each year is the EVAA air show. None of them have trees.
    Hickory Oaks has it's own airfield and lots and lots of trees. They even have a mini-lake (4 acres).
    There are all types of RV sites, tenting/primitive sites and group sites, some small cabins as well. We camped in site 60 because we arrived after dark, and Cindy suggested that our first choice, #67 might be too hard to find at night. There is only one street light, and it's by site #1 and the swim area.
    The map doesn't really convey what an oasis of trees this place is. To the West is the runway and beyond that, a large grassy hill (it's actually landfill). To the east in a rural road running along the lake. To the north, in the distance is a prison.  That all sounds worse than it is, it's a lovely campground.
     There are a few things for sale in the office, but you're so close to town you can get everything there. Cindy the operator is extremely nice and helpful.
    Fire pits are 30" rings with no grate, Tables seem smaller than average.
    If you're visiting in the summer, be sure to visit the Farmer's Market , Saturdays on Main Street, also Wagner's Market for the best meats, deli and beverages.  The Paine museum & gardens and the city museum are both worth visits as well.

    Evergreen Campsites and Resort

    Such a great campground!

    We visited Evergreen for the first time over the July 4th weekend. This trip was our second - ever - camping weekend following purchasing our travel trailer. We expected the worst, given the weekend with noisy neighbors and fireworks. Wow we’re we wrong! The guests were all SO courteous, pleasant and a joy to be around! The campground is immaculate and the amenities were top rate! Our group rented a pontoon boat for a day and floating around the lake absolutely made the trip. So much so, that we booked 2021 before even leaving the campground. Our group of 15 intend to make this our annual destination! 

    One thing guests should know, the only cell service available in the area is AT&T. As a Verizon subscriber, we were completely off grid the entire weekend, unless we used our car as a hotspot (AT&T). 

    Our final recommendation? Reserve here! You won’t be disappointed!

    High Cliff State Park Campground

    Close to town but surrounded by nature.

    This is a state run campground that provides plenty of hiking, biking and horse riding trails. There is also access to Lake Winnebago for boating and swimming. The camp sites are all either partially or fully shaded with a good amount of privacy for each site. Plenty or pit toilets are provided and there are also plumbed toilets and showers available on the campground.

    This campground is perfect for a weekend getaway or for those families just starting out. It is close enough to town to be able to run in and get forgotten items. There are plenty of playground equipment for kids to run and climb on. If you are looking for a rustic get away this may not be exactly what you are looking for but it is a great spot to get out of the city for a day or two.

    High Cliff State Park Campground

    Nice state park with lots to do

    We went to High Cliff over the 4th of July, so it was quite busy. 

    We booked sites 22 and 23 which are a double site. Pretty good space, we were able to fit 4 tents and a sleeping hammock. There is overflow parking directly across from the site. There is a main hiking trail behind the sites, but right beyond that are some nice rock formations. A short walk down that path is to a nice look out, especially for sunset. 

    The beach was very busy, but it was a holiday weekend. There is a large grassy area above the beach with grills and picnic tables. The water at the beach was very mucky when we were there. 

    The marina was nice. We didn’t have a problem parking. The water was very choppy, so we didn’t stay out long. 

    There are some nice trails. We saw a lot of families with bikes. The park is also very close to a town with a grocery store (Dicks Family Foods) if you need to stock up. We had a fish fry in town which was delicious!

    Pine Grove Campground

    Halloween starts early here!

    This weekend there was a screening of The Nightmare Before Christmas (one of our favorites) and loads of cool decked out campsites. Only a few places with full hook up and ALL by the dump station. Nice amenities, lake, splash pads, mini golf, splash pad outdoor pool, golf car rentals, outdoor movies, a full size haunted house!

    Breezy Hill Campground

    Great Stay!

    We have really enjoyed our stay here with our two dogs! It’s extremely clean, kid and pet friendly, with lots of amenities. Staff is incredibly friendly! The only downside is that if you want visitors, there is a $5/visitor fee. Other than that, we would absolutely come back here again!

    High Cliff State Park Campground

    So much to do for everyone

    No matter what your skill level you can find a trail here from easy to challenging to hike or bike.  There is a beach, a marina, Lake Winnebago, horse trails, hiking, biking and pet beach and picnic area.  The park is very clean and pretty.  There is a playground, several vault toilet areas spread around and a shower house.   Some sites have electric and there is a dump station and water fill up.   

    Both AT &T and Verizon provided good service and the ability to stream.  Spaces are large and have many  trees for shade and privacy.


Guide to Combined Locks

Wisconsin's Winnebago County and surrounding areas offer cabin accommodations for outdoor enthusiasts seeking rustic lodging near Combined Locks, Wisconsin. The region experiences distinct seasons with warm summers averaging 80°F and winter temperatures often below freezing. Lake Winnebago dominates the local geography, with cabin rentals available on or near its 137,700-acre shoreline.

What to do

Hiking the Niagara Escarpment: High Cliff State Park Campground in Sherwood provides access to unique geological formations along Lake Winnebago. "My favorite thing about this park and campground is the hiking. Part of the Niagra escarpment there are plenty of cliffs and fun views along the trails," notes Racheal M., who visits regularly.

Lake activities: Cabin rentals at Kalbus Country Harbor provide direct lake access. "Beautiful lake view and beach with lots of lake shells and birds to see," writes Jennifer B. The shoreline offers opportunities for shell collecting, bird watching, and fishing.

Year-round recreation: Woodland trails remain accessible from cabins during winter months. "Great spot, lots of trails, and the bathrooms were clean. Only gripe is the uncertain schedule they have for turning on water for the season. First week or two of may is a safe bet, but no promises," explains Brandl B. about High Cliff State Park facilities.

What campers like

Family-friendly amenities: Fremont RV Campground cabins attract families with children. "Great waterfront camping. Great outdoor waterpark. Fun dance for kids on Saturday night," says Lucas S., highlighting the entertainment options beyond basic lodging.

Quiet settings: Hickory Oaks Campground offers peaceful cabin accommodations within city limits. "Hickory Oaks was amazing! Cindy called to check on us because we were arriving late. They even delivered wood to our campsite so we could have a fire," shares Hannah H., emphasizing the personalized service.

Wildlife viewing: Cabins at Hickory Oaks provide natural surroundings despite urban proximity. "We saw so much wildlife! Chipmunks, ducks, a great horned owl, and countless birds to name a few," continues Hannah H., describing the biodiversity visible from cabin sites.

What you should know

Seasonal availability: Many cabin facilities near Combined Locks operate on limited schedules. "Stayed here for 4 days in late October. Site 112 is nice pull through. Lovely state park. Hiking trails are short but nice. Lime kiln trail is difficult but so worth it," notes Nancy S. about fall camping at High Cliff State Park.

Bathroom facilities: Most cabins rely on central shower houses rather than in-unit bathrooms. "Great place for kids and anyone who likes calm quiet camping," remarks Josh U. about Apple Creek Campground, where cabin guests share communal facilities.

Reservation requirements: Book cabins well in advance during peak seasons (May-September). "The campsites were large and relatively private. We enjoyed hiking on the trails," mentions Laura D., who secured site 105 at High Cliff for fall colors viewing.

Tips for camping with families

Look for cabin options with playgrounds: Multiple area campgrounds feature children's play areas near cabin sites. "Between the beautiful scenery and multiple hiking trails I'd recommend it to anybody," says Steve C., who visits High Cliff regularly with his 4-year-old.

Consider cabins with water access: S'Mores Campground offers family cabins with lake and pool proximity. "Nice pool, playground plus a lake," notes Cassie W., highlighting the water amenities appealing to families with children.

Check cabin availability at High Cliff: The park remains a popular destination for family cabin stays. "Really cool cliffs to climb/hike. There is also a lime kiln to hike to and see. There are two playgrounds for the kids as well. Beautiful views of Lake Winnebago from high points of the hike," explains Kaylyn C.

Tips from RVers

Winter cabin options: Sleepy Hollow Farms provides year-round cabin rentals when most campgrounds close. "There are also small cabins (only one of which has a bathroom) and three 'condos'. These all had air-conditioners, but I did not see the inside of them," reports Lee D.

Proximity to amenities: Some cabin sites offer convenient locations near towns. "We stayed here because it was close to an event we needed to attend. We enjoyed our stay here and felt very welcome," says Scott D. about his experience at Apple Creek Campground, highlighting its accessibility.

Consider noise factors: Highway proximity affects some cabin locations. "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," explains Ross C., noting Apple Creek's location relative to Interstate 41.
