    Holden Park Campground

    Fall Ride in Ocotber

    Our group has been camping at the Holden County Park for 4 years now, this will be our 5th year.

     We are so happy that the shower/restrooms are finally done, its a great plus and we feel that more people will camp there now. 

    We love how quiet it is when we return from our daily rides, its like its our own place as there aren't many if any at all other campers there. This year may be different and if it is we won't mind at all, hopefully they don't either as we do stay up late by the fire but aren't wild crazy loud.

    Reicks Lake Park

    Didn’t stay the night

    Based on picture, we planed to stay at this campsite. It is right in the side of the highway, so too much noise and traffic for us. The picture this site provides is actually the other side of highway, over a hill, so you can’t see it from campsite. but there’s a view of marshlands. It’s $20, have showers and toilets. There’s a small playground for kids. We came across people That said they camp there all the time and love it.

    Castle Mound Campground — Black River State Forest

    Really beautiful state campground

    Beautiful, clean, peaceful, wooded campground. Its mid-week and there's only a few other campers here. Most are super respectful with the exception of one group that has the occasional outburst but they were mostly quiet otherwise. We saw some bunnies, birds and raccoons. Heard squirrels, owls and other birds. Vault toilets throughout the campground and one building with showers and flush toilets near the visitor center with plenty of parking. Water fill and dump station located at the front near the visitor station as well. We got here around 6pm yesterday and no one was at the check in so we used the kiosk to get the park pass. A bit steep for out of state visitors @ $16 but they seem to keep the park in great shape so for once it was worth it. Lots of space and shade in all spots. Many sites with electric and some without. Plenty of spots can accommodate mid-large campers. Its about half and half pull-thru or back-in/pull-in. We have a 26 foot travel trailer and had no issues. Mostly level spots as well. A lot of trees are close to the road and made it slightly challenging to maneuver the road but nothing too crazy...just pay attention if you have a larger camper. We dont make it though wisconsin a lot but we'd definitely come back here again. Easy and quick to get to from 94 and less than a mile from Walmart. Plenty of stores/restaurants nearby. Really the only complaint besides the high entrance fee for out of state is that it is close to the town and you can definitely hear traffic. It's not too bad considering the surrounding woods definitely deaden the noise. Wish we could have stayed longer to explore the park better.

    Butternut Park

    Well maintained city park

    About a dozen sites with picnic tables on a grassy large circle. About half or more have electric hookups. Toilets are a short walk past the campground entrance.

    Holden Park Campground

    Peaceful, Friendly Camping

    A friendly campground host and wonderful county staff keep this little campground in good shape. Updated in 2025 with a new shower/restroom facility, fire rings, paved drive, and playground equipment. There are 20 sites, most of them will need some leveling for rvs. Generous firewood available for $5. Not many mosquitoes. ATT LTE cell 3 bars.

    Lake Wissota State Park Campground

    Decent for price

    It was a very nice campground, it is a very big campground. Unfortunately the beach is not very clean and there are ground bees on the trail.

    Eagle Ridge Campground

    Okay for night, safe clean campground

    The spots were narrow and opened up to neighbors. We were fortunate to have no neighbor on either side, but I could see how that would limit privacy. Laundry was clean but small only 2 washer/2 dryer and no fan in room….really humid in evening and you didn’t want to open door due to bugs. Bathhouse clean….decent rec area for kids including sand volleyball court.

    River walk trail…not detailed in paperwork. Trail is just ok, a bit overgrown and lots of bugs. We made it a good ways in and felt like we were parallel to River, but it’s so thick with growth…you can just make it out through brush. I was not prepared with flip flops so I turned back. Unknown if nice view at end.

    Chapman Park Campground

    Nice place

    We pulled in on a Sunday night and all but had the place to ourselves. Our site was on a small, beautiful lake and close to the bathrooms. We had a slight breeze and very few bugs. I am not sure if I would stay there for a full week and keep busy. But I wish my town had a park with everything that this one has.


Guide to Fall Creek

Campgrounds near Fall Creek, Wisconsin offer diverse camping opportunities within the glacial terrain of west-central Wisconsin. The area sits at approximately 900 feet above sea level in the Chippewa Valley with several water bodies including Lake Eau Claire, Lake Wissota, and the Eau Claire River. Fall temperatures typically range from 40-70°F in September and October, making it ideal for late season camping with reduced crowds.

What to do

Water activities at Lake Wissota: Lake Wissota State Park Campground offers a beach for swimming and water access points for boaters. According to a visitor, "Beautiful shaded campground with semi private sites. Nice beach that is a walkable distance from the sites. Lots of walking, biking and horse trails that are full of wild berries. Several stairways down to the lake, no beach at these spots but good for taking the dog in the water."

Creek tubing at O'Neil Creek: O'Neil Creek Campground features a natural creek that serves as a family-friendly water feature. A camper notes, "The natural creek that doubles as a lazy river is great. There is a creek flowing through it to tube, swim and even kayak. Rentals available."

Trail exploration at Coon Fork: Coon Fork Campground offers nature trails around a motor-free lake. A visitor describes, "Coon Fork is always a great experience! Two great beaches on a small, no-motor lake with a large campground and several nature trails."

What campers like

Privacy between campsites: Lake Wissota State Park Campground provides wooded sites with natural separation. One camper explains, "We selected site 67E online based on the campsite map and photo provided on the online reservation site. While all of the sites were very private - lots of trees and underbrush between, this one and 65E were ideally situated for dual sites."

Quiet camping near the Eau Claire River: Harstad Park offers spacious, rustic sites with river access. A reviewer states, "Harstad is get away camping. Right on the Eau Claire River with canoe kayak access. A great shallow creek for kids to explore. 29 sites mostly separated by trees and brush."

Clean facilities at Crystal Lake: Crystal Lake Campground maintains well-kept grounds with waterfront access. A camper reports, "We camped here almost all summer. Tons of things to do. Kids playground, golf course right next door, great bathrooms with running water. Large sites with trees for shade!"

What you should know

Seasonal operation: Most campgrounds in the area operate from spring to fall. Pine Harbor Campground runs from "May 1 to Oct 15" according to their listing information.

Cost variations: Basic sites at Harstad Park cost less than full-service campgrounds. A camper notes, "It has reduced rate for weekly stays. No ranger on site, so you have to request firewood for purchase the day before."

Wildlife presence: Many campgrounds have active wildlife. At Lake Wissota, a camper reported, "Very woodsy! Mosquitoes, gnats, and bugs galore. Beach is nice, even better that they have a seperate beach area for your leashed dog!"

Water quality concerns: Some water areas have maintenance issues. One visitor to Lake Wissota mentioned, "It was a very nice campground, it is a very big campground. Unfortunately the beach is not very clean and there are ground bees on the trail."

Tips for camping with families

Best family-friendly campgrounds: Stoney Creek RV Resort offers numerous activities specifically designed for children. A visitor shares, "This campground is definitely at the top of the list. The sites are huge almost state park like with ample room for your kids to play. Lots of activities on the weekend on top of the bounce pillow, pool, lagoon, skate park, volleyball, and basketball court."

Motor-free lake options: Coon Fork Campground restricts motorized watercraft, making it safer for families with young children. A camper notes, "No outboard motors allowed on this lake. Canoe and rowboat rentals are available at the office. Great private campsites."

Supervised water activities: Some campgrounds offer monitored water features for safer play. At Stoney Creek RV Resort, there are "a mini golf course and a swimming pool on site. Stoney Creek is a fun place to bring the whole family. It might be a perfect place to bring a first-time camper to ease them into the experience."

Tips from RVers

Electric service details: Eagle Ridge Campground provides full hookups with good connectivity. One RVer reported, "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."

Site selection for larger rigs: Several campgrounds accommodate larger RVs but site selection matters. At Eagle Ridge Campground, "Sites would have been very close together if they were all in use but many were empty during my visit. Walking path to an area that overlooks the Chippewa River was nice."

Facility access: Bathroom and shower facilities vary significantly between campgrounds. Pine Harbor Campground accommodates visitor preferences: "Stopped for a one night stay on a cross country motorcycle trip. Very reasonable price for a tent with electric site. Asked to near the facilities and they did not disappoint."
