Small campground along river with handicap access to river.pit Toilets there is a 5 dollar parking fee per day. There are two site good distance apart. Not much shade handicap fishing along river handicap picknick tables.
Great campground my family loves. Can't wait to go back
Excellent campground! Well maintained and easy to maneuver around. Quiet and enough sun and shade for everyone. Owners are helpful and very nice! Nice playground for the kids, swim beach for great summer fun, campground store/food/drinks if you’re hungry or desire a cold drink to beat the heat and such amazing riverside views that melt the weeks stress away! We will definitely be back to this jem of a campground! Come see for yourself, don’t take my word for it!
This area is close to Boulder Lake Campground. If you cannot find the campsite or wish to camp closer to a small river with trout, this is a great location. It has established toilets.
1 of 2 spots at this location. This is the second campsite on the dirt road coming in. If you come in on the first site and try to take the path through to the 2nd, be sure to have a high clearance vehicle with 4x4. There are a lot of ruts and mud at the moment. There is a short walk to a stream, which is peaceful. Someone put a small bench there, which is nice to sit at and relax. As far as resources, there isn't much by way of dead wood. There's a picnic table and fire ring which seems "clean". Absolutely no trailers larger than a teardrop. Even that is questionable. I wouldn't recommend anything larger than a van or sprinter.
we had about 15 kids and anything they did she would yell at them , the out houses on the property we the worst smelling ones i have ever encountered, they were filthy and have not been cleaned in months the toilet seats are cracked and are about 10+ years old the stinch would roam over to all of our campsites and would just about make you puke, the miniture golf coarse should be free it has not been swept off all season and is in need of major repairs , out of about 10 games in the game room 4 worked
Boot lake is actually the shape of a boot. It provides some decent fishing from shore but excellent fishing from a boat. The beach is nice and the location is nicely nestled in the Nicolet National Forest near the town of Townsend and Lakewood.
The most beautiful showers and amenities I've seen camping so far! We are fairly new campers but this place wowed us! On our list of where we'd like a seasonal site!
Site we got was not the best, but worked out OK. Site was behind the main y coming in to camp, so lots of traffic. Other than that, nothing to complain about. Nice pool, friendly staff.
Beautiful, friendly campground. Swimming area, waterfall, steam, fishing. This camp has it all. Some season campers, some overnights.
It’s a nice beach. Bathrooms are nice, they need some decor to make it homey. We have a 30 foot camper and the site we were on, let’s just say we had a hell of a time backing up and smashed one of our back windows in the truck that’s how tight it was. D would have been allot better. Beautiful here but not sure we will come back
This park is big, with lots of trails, clean bathrooms, water access, and great campsites that offer privacy when the foliage is grown in.
Clean, friendly staff, not trying to nickel and dime you for everything. Reasonable prices, good services.
We kayaked into this site and it took about 40 minutes from the parking lot launch area.
Site has a great view of the sunrise. There is a bare box and a fire ring with a metal grate for cooking.
Short walk from the shore up to the site. There is a rack so you can store your kayaks on land.
Definitely bring bug spray and check for ticks as I found two or three of them on me but we were also exploring through the heavy brush so it's no surprise.
Great place to vote in or kayaking. The island is definitely worth checking out as they have rocks that are great for sunbathing during the afternoon hours.
The Diamond Lake area is a great example of good places to be to enjoy the Fall foliage. A simple camp setup is all I needed to enjoy my time here. The best feature here would likely be space to roam under the trees.
This campground boast a variety of site types from cabins, to a yurt, to a bunkhouse, pull-through sites, and much more. They have a playground as well as nice beaches to access the lake from. Minigolf is yet another feature on site. If you want one place that has it all for the many types of camping you may like to do, Diamond Lake is a great camp.
The thing that impresses me most about this campground is that they manage to do a lot with a little. The Falls are a beautiful little site which the campsites themselves manage to wrap around to maximize the space and fit spaces for all to enjoy. Fortunately, the river itself adds more space for folks to enjoy the water on rocky outcroppings and trees lining much of the banks.
The small town in which the camp is placed gives a true Wisconsin-Midwestern veneer to your stay. Some basic amenities are close by, and the community itself feels safe and inviting. I would have enjoyed a longer stay but I hope to visit it again soon. 5 stars for making the most of what they have.
As a father with 3 young kids, I thoroughly enjoy this camp for the activities and amenities available. The water area is a favorite for kids and the grounds sport plenty of things to grab their attention from mini-golf to the lake. The sites themselves had enough to meet your needs, as well as enough tree cover to still help you enjoy the feeling of being in nature. The drive in is nice and accessible even for bigger rigs. It's a good entry point for the nature in Northeast Wisconsin.
This campground is near Townsend. If this one s full just continue down the road to Boulder Lake Campground.
We liked the diversity of campsites. You can find your own space and even add in some shade. Vault toilets and water can be found. Garbage bins are here too. The boat launch gives you access to the peaceful Boot Lake. We aren’t into fishing but liked that hiking isn’t too far. The Quartz Hill Trail is a bit of a drive past Townsend.
This is a peaceful respite in the Wisconsin woods.
This campground is east of Laona. It’s a nice drive out here passing some local homes along the way. The road to the lake is just for the campground. There is a boat launch and picnic area before the campsites. We liked the sites that are lakeside. The road rises so you are elevated above the lake. It’s an interesting perspective. The woods side sites are nice too. You get plenty of shade and privacy. When we showed up the lakeside sites were filled leaving many of the woods side. The drawback might be that the sites directly across from each other but that is adaptable.
We loved the secluded feeling out here.
Stayed here for three nights during our Door County Century bike ride trip. The staff was super friendly and made us feel very welcome. The site was very spacious and the campground nice and quiet, clean and well kept. Will definitely be staying here again.
Awesome campground! We stayed here for 2 weeks in our 2021 Keystone Hideout 250BH. They don't have a ton of sites and they are reserve only. The weekdays are extremely quiet but the weekends get a little busy due to the seasonal sites.
The sites are electric/water and they do have a dump station very close by. The central pond and waterfall were awesome!
As far as amenities - the bathrooms/showers were very clean and well kept. They also had laundry services! Mowing day is on Thursdays!
The only negative with our stay (which the campground can't help) were the mosquitos, flies, and bees. So bring bug spray!!!
There are several things to do - hiking, biking, caves, Lake Michigan, etc.
The New Hope Cave is only open to tour 1 weekend of the month. It is usually the 3rd Saturday of the month but there were scheduling conflicts and it was open on the 2nd Saturday in August so we weren't able to tour. We were still able to visit the other caves and walk around and look at wildlife. If you go when it is raining you won't be able to go in many of the caves as they become flooded but it does make some really cool waterfalls! The Manitowoc Breakwater Lighthouse is on Lake Michigan about 30 minutes away from the campground but we definitely recommend going to see it! We would definitely stay here again!
My friends and I love camping here because of the huge wooded sites, quiet family environment, and excellent service provided by Jen, Joe and their whole family. As a privately owned campground, they take their rules and security seriously to make sure their campground is safe, clean, fun, and quiet (during quiet hours). If you're looking for the party campground, this isn't it. If you're looking for lake fun (no boats) during the day and relaxing by the fire at night, this place is a must.
Stayed there for our daughters birthday weekend. The owners overheard us talking as we checked in and brought her campfire colors as a gift all wrapped. Sites were pretty level and just enough room for some privacy. Would certainly come back for the hospitality.
We showed up late Friday due to some issues with our pop up. The lady called and asked when we were arriving that was so nice. The campsites are tightly packed but luckily we got a nice wide open one right next to the perfectly cleaned bathrooms and showers. I loved that they have a social gathering spot with movies and djs. The pool is small but clean they have a nice 1 foot deep separate pool for the little kids. Everyone was pretty much nice we only had one lady come scold us cause our dog slipped out of his harness for a few minutes she was right on top of us lol. It’s located close to downtown sturgeon bay which was nice! We had lunch at Mary’s on the beach and the crabcakes were awesome. Our waitress was too cool and when my fiancé told her my drink had no booze she promptly brought me a new one with a lot of liquor lol. Wood nearby at houses on the side of the road. Would definitely go back!
Overall nice place. Sites are spacious, a little too close together for my taste. Other campers were quiet and friendly however. Pit toilets hadn’t been cleaned in almost two weeks.
On the Embarrass River, a lovely small cascading falls and swimming area. Small store, nicely maintained grounds. Rachel, the owner is very nice. We absolutely lived our stay, would have stayed longer if there were a y availability. We will return.
The owner was very nice and helped us get around on the map. With over 500 sites and 350 of them being permanent.... the weekend warriors tend to get "warnings".
We almost lost our golf cart and people literally drive past and stare. This is a little unsettling since we do have littles and with the recent news this place had involving children.
There were bands playing Thursday thru Saturday at night but for $25 dollars per person and watching all the permanent sites people just park outside the gate watching forcing people who actually paid to park farther away.
The pool is nice, they do plan on remodeling at the end of this season.
Overall it was nice but again.... you have to watch your warnings.
