"If you’re looking for a campsite that transports you away from the usual Midwest fare, this is the place to be! The site we stayed at was beyond perfect."
"Gorgeous campground in the middle of no where Wisconsin! Perfect place to camp if you like to climb at Necedah! There are a few lake entrances and at one of them we saw a couple large gorgeous cranes!"
"There is a tall tower to climb to a splendid overview of Friendship-Adams, many playgrounds, a paved path, hiking trails through the woods, streams, and fascinating hieroglyphs which put Roch-a-Cri in"
"Chill and relaxing camp ground in Roche A’ Cri Wisconsin State park. Sites surrounded by old growth pines and adjacent to park’s name sake, Roche A’ Cri mound."
"I have been going to this campground for years, walking around, going to the beaches, launching the family pontoon and fishing in Lake Petenwell. Everyone is always so friendly upon arrival."
"Love camping right on the edge of the lake."
"Good place for 4 wheeling, plenty of trails. Home made pizza and Bloody Mary's"
"Far drive to any nearby stores but a lot of bars and restaurants nearby. Carlson’s is the best! Had fun at the beach and down the road you can go tubing on the river nearby."
"We had site A11, and just loved the location. The A loop is overlooking the lake and close to the beach."
"Some of the walk in campsites are a far walk from the parking. So, if you simply want car camping, make sure you pick an appropriate site!"
"Enjoyed the beach and the trails.
Lots of poison ivy so stay in the center of the trails and be aware."
"My family and I stayed at this Wisconsin Dells KOA location for two nights (site 61) as the first stop on a 3+ week trip, and it fully met our expectations"

"A great campground with out of this world lake views. Most sites come with amazing lake views. Great for watching the sun rise up over the lake. Great swimming, fishing and playing."
"Some sites with electric can be found with lake access. Plenty of space between sites. Very quiet campground with a play area, beaches and other nice features. "
"Definitely recommend for a seasonal home away from home"
"Clean and Friendly Next to a huge restaurant and bar that have the lowest prices for above average food. Definitely recommend. Overnight sites easy to get into and large sites."
"So I’m driving back from a camping adventure and the wind picks up. After fighting it for awhile we start looking for a spot to stop for the night."
"There's a shelter area and some nice little hiking trails. Just outside of New Lisbon if you need anything."
ScoutThe hosts and the family are warm and friendly and very helpful as are the residents. The setting has wonderful trees and a variety of birds including daily sightings of a Bald Eagle so bring binoculars if you have them. Fishing is pretty good and there are many things to see and do in the area. We hope to get back there again. We were there in June 2025 and fish (carp) were spawning along the shore. Pets are welcome if well behaved and on a leash. Pull thru sites are available and more seem to be added as time permits.Sewer,water, and 50amp elec. are standard here and WiFi is very reliable. Many places to visit .

ScoutLegion Park has 10 electric sites located in a pretty city park. Discount if you don't want electric. 2 of the sites are shaded by huge white pines and the others are in an open field. The park is clean and well maintained. It has a public swimming pool open from 1 until 6 and playground equipment. Showers can be taken at the pool when open, firewood and wifi are included, toilets are potapottis and were very clean. The park is away from traffic noise and was quiet when we stayed in August. Call the town office for reservations and availability.
ScoutThe sites are simple, well separated with a very short walk, easy to take multiple trips. Going when we did we were met with swarms of mosquitoes.
Additionally it's very near the interstate so not the quietest of places.
GuidePorta potty near our original site was full and there for closed. So we picked a different site near the bathhouse.
The bathhouse was clean at night but not in the morning. No tokens needs for the shower. Several retro games plus billiards in the game room. Quarter operated.
Someone’s RV was giving off an awful stench. LOTS of puddles when it rained so maybe better drainage?
GuideCampsites are small. If you are looking for FHU sites are level enough. But, if you are needing just water and electric you should look elsewhere. Sites are very unlevel. There was a 3 feet drop off at my site just outside my camper making sitting under the awning impossible. Staff was friendly.
GuideLove this campground! Great facilities and a dumping station. No hookups but the area cannot be beat. This is our favorite boondock spot. The lake is perfect for paddling and the trails are amazing.
ScoutPretty full, but also pretty quiet place. Clean bathrooms with showers. Most sites don’t have hookups. There’s an upcharge for out-of-staters. Easy access to trails, lakes, and a short jaunt to beautiful downtown Waupaca. Would stay again!
ScoutThis state park is very nice, decent trails clearly marked and the walking paths around the sites are pretty clear. Overall the noise from other sites was minimal and I liked the layout of the campground.
The bad- the sites labeled for highway noise should be closed. It was an absolutely awful experience. I was walking through all of the campground when we first got in and as we approached our site the noise was so distracting and completely ruined the peaceful experience that most state parks offer. It was a serious bummer when night construction started on the highway on Sunday night as well. Our neighbors stayed well beyond the checkout time and the camp host did nothing to get them to leave, why even be present if you’re not gunna do anything? It wouldn’t have been a big deal if they weren’t randomly shooting a bow and arrow into the trees behind their site and then proceeded to record TikTok’s with endless repetition of those songs. Not the parks fault other than the host should at least clear the sites with the new checkout times.
If you’re going to this park avoid the highway spots at all costs!
ScoutThis was a great experience rocheckery State Park as beautiful outlooks there's a lot of scenic sites goes from trees and Forest to rocks and scenic views if you like hiking and wilderness camping this is the place.
