Best RV Parks & Resorts near Gordon, WI

Happy Ours RV Park in Gordon provides year-round full hookup sites for RVs with 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections. The park accommodates big rigs with spacious pull-through sites and includes amenities like showers, toilets, and fire rings at each location. "Sites can be a little tricky backing into because of the trees, but ultimately they have enough space even for large rigs," noted one camper who visited with a fifth wheel. Nearby, Treeland Farm RV Resort in Hayward operates seasonally from May to October, featuring concrete patios, picnic tables, and fire pits at their wooded sites, with both pull-through and back-in options designed to accommodate larger recreational vehicles.

Reservations are strongly recommended at most Gordon-area RV parks, particularly during summer and fall when northern Wisconsin experiences peak tourism. Cell service varies considerably throughout the region—Happy Ours has limited connectivity while Treeland Farm offers better coverage. Most parks provide sanitary dump stations, though some like Northland Camping & RV Park include this service only for registered guests. Pets are generally welcome at all facilities with standard leash requirements. Winter camping options remain limited to Happy Ours RV Park, which maintains plowed access roads and functioning water systems during colder months, while most other parks close after mid-October when freezing temperatures arrive.

    Wanoka Lake Campground - TEMPORARILY CLOSED

    Standard USFS campground

    Typical USFS campground in the Chequamegon NF. First come first served, self pay, no host, very green and lush and private sites.

    $15/night. Some sites are pull through. A few are level, but most would be difficult for us to get level enough to be comfortable. Not sure of the length limit here but we had no problems in our 26ft class c. Roads are narrow and the low hanging branches scraped along the top and sides of our rig, but no damage. 

    There is a trash dumpster here, and even a recycling bin, a nice surprise. There is potable water at the campground (per note at spigot water is safe to drink but will leave rust residue). Vault toilets here as well. 

    The lake is nice and peaceful and small, and bugs/mosquitos weren’t too bad. There’s a little dock at the lake but you can’t drive your boat down, you have to carry it on foot. 

    Surprisingly decent Verizon and ATT service. Hardly anybody here. Beautiful and quiet and serene.

    Jay Cooke State Park Campground

    Nice state park camping

    We stopped here on our way to north Minnesota. Originally we planned 2 days but really needed to rest so extended it to 4 days. It was a little hairy getting to, the 2 lane winding road with the raging river on one side did slow us down a bit.  The Rangers were friendly and accommodating. The park had taken quite a beating with the winter storm that had been there the previous week, a lot of sites were closed due to trees down and snow.  While we were there they were actively cleaning up, but left in the afternoon so we had no disturbances from saws or equipment noise. The water was not turned on yet for the season, so the bathroom/showers and dump station were not available.  There was a potable water source at the front of our loop to fill our fresh tank and our water storage cubes.  The sites were shaded well, and easy to back into.  We had to work a bit to get our camper level but that may have been due to the snow and water that was on the site so we figured it was par for the course.  We walked to the Welcome Center and the swinging bridge, there were multiple hiking trails accessible by the camping area.  It was relatively busy on the weekend but cleared out during the week.  We had lots of wildlife visitors.  The park is pet friendly.  We found affordable propane and a dump site closer to Duluth.

    Jay Cooke State Park Campground

    Winter cabin camping

    I love Jay Cooke year round! The tent camping is great, the park is amazing for hiking and geology study, and there are camper cabins that I have often stayed at as well. This was my first time staying in winter, the camper cabins are cozy and fully heated and really nice. People use them when coming here in winter for the terrific cross country skiing or snowshoeing. The cabins are very simple and have beds, table, heat, and electricity, but no water inside (water punps are nearby, so bring a bucket ir canteen) and no bathroom (but you can use the outhouse nearby, and the campground will have a new bath house by early summer, it is inder construction and almost finished!) . You can use the facilities at the visitor center during the day but they arent open in the evening and are a bit of a trek from the campground. But, it you want to camp in warmth and relative comfort, and want to explire this amazing state park, the camper cabins are a great way to go year round! You can reserve campsites too if you have an RV or dont mind winter camping

    Anchor Inn Campground

    Great price for a quiet campsite near the Apostle Islands

    Had a lovely stay here on August 18th. You can't beat the price ($14/night for electric up to 50 amps). The woman I booked the reservation through was really nice and laid back. The campground is quiet, chill and safe. The woman's restroom was clean, despite some mildew on the shower ceiling (no big deal). Dog-friendly and free WiFi. Great option if you're looking for something near the Apostle Islands that's inexpensive and includes electricity. I stayed in spot 2, which is near the bathrooms and has a picnic table and fire pit.

    Lake Chippewa Campground

    Still One of Our Favs

    As we arrived on a Saturday around 1:45 PM, there was quite the line of RVs checking in as most people come in for a week on Saturdays. As we have been here multiple times, we knew not to line up down the narrow road shoot that’s adjacent to the lodge where you check in but stay on the main road. They had plenty of staff on duty, so check-in was fairly quick, and we headed to site 457, which was an easy back-in with FHUs. We were pleasantly surprised we didn’t get site 456 right on the road. When we make a reservation for this campground(CG), you can only pick an area, not a specific site, for most of the sites. This was the first time we’d stayed in this area of mixed short-term and seasonal sites. The FHU facilities were placed in the middle of the gravel-grass site with a picnic table and fire pit. We were able to put out our back patio and have plenty of space to park our F450. There are a lot of mature trees in this park, so satellite is going to be iffy depending on the site. We were able to get an okay shot to the north for Starlink but no chance for the southern sky. You can opt to pay for the park Wi-Fi. The water pressure is good, and we had two bars on Verizon. The staff at the lodge/office is top-notch. We found out that this year’s“watch out” was kids riding electric bikes full out versus underage golf cart drivers of last year, so“watch out” in either case. The CG has been trying to police the lack of parental oversight, but this first-rate CG attacks a lot of families. Though there’s no formal dog park, there are plenty of areas to walk your dog, including the trail up and around the newer primitive camping area. Lake Chip is one of our favs, and we will continue to return.

    Pathfinder Village-St Croix

    Tall Tall Trees

    Lots of tall evergreen trees (not sure of the specific species) here that you are nestled in. Have to know a seasonal site holder to camp here. Sites can be a little tricky backing into because of the trees, but ultimately they have enough space even for large rigs(there were three of us there: 2 5th wheels and one longer travel trailer). A picnic table and fire ring was provided at each site. Nice easy road to navigate getting into the campground. Close to Hinckley if you're looking for things to do!

Guide to Gordon

Gordon, Wisconsin and the surrounding area feature camping options situated in the northwoods region where boreal forests meet wetlands. Summer temperatures typically range from 50-80°F while winter can see temperatures well below freezing. Most campgrounds in the region remain open from May through October, with Happy Ours RV Park being one of the few RV campgrounds near Gordon, Wisconsin offering year-round accommodations.

What to do

Fishing access: Top O' the Morn Resort & Campground provides direct access to calm, peaceful waters. "Lake is calm and peaceful. Saw a lot of wildlife and heard the sounds of loons in the AM and evening," notes Katherine O., highlighting the natural setting for anglers.

Beach activities: Access to swimming areas comes with several campgrounds in the region. "Lake has swimming area and swim platform, it's a lake so there are small fish, snails and grass in that area," explains Beth B. about her experience at Top O' the Morn.

Boating options: Sunrise Bay Campgrounds offers convenient boat facilities for campers with watercraft. "Has a boat launch within the campground and slips to park your boat by your site. The campground sits on Nelson Lake. Fantastic fishing!!" reports Andrea M.

What campers like

Privacy between sites: Many campers appreciate the spacious layout at Country Quiet RV Park and Campground. "Sites are fairly spread out. Easy loop system makes this campground very easy to navigate through," notes Judy B., though she cautions it's "not the most private campground."

Digital disconnect: Limited connectivity becomes a positive for some visitors to the area. At Treeland Farm RV Resort, Mikala D. appreciates "good food, drinks, amazing fishing, and NO service. That is the best part. This place takes you away from everything. Welcome to real camping."

Clean facilities: Campground cleanliness ranks high in visitor satisfaction. "Bathrooms kept clean except the mold on the shower curtains," notes Kathy H. about Northland Camping & RV Park, showing attention to detail matters to campers even when other aspects may disappoint.

What you should know

Weather preparedness: Northern Wisconsin experiences significant temperature fluctuations, even in summer. Nights can drop into the 40s while days reach the 80s, requiring appropriate clothing and sleeping gear regardless of season.

Limited connectivity: Cell service varies widely throughout the Gordon area. At Northland Camping & RV Park, some visitors report connectivity issues, with many campgrounds requiring a trip to town for reliable service.

Noise considerations: Some campgrounds face noise challenges from nearby highways or railroads. "Noisy highway and train nearby" cautions Kathy H. about Northland Camping, noting this factor when choosing a site for those seeking quiet surroundings.

Tips for camping with families

Game room availability: Some campgrounds provide indoor recreation options during inclement weather. Andrea M. notes Sunrise Bay Campgrounds has a "Nice game room for the kids on a rainy day. They also have a small playground."

Playground access: When traveling with children, campgrounds with dedicated play areas offer added value. Multiple reviewers mention the presence of playground equipment, with swimming areas often located nearby for combined recreation.

Organized activities: Nelson Lake Lodge and similar facilities sometimes offer scheduled family-friendly events during summer weekends. "The grounds were very well maintained and they hosts really went out of their way to welcome us and help us get in and settled into our site," reports Sam C.

Tips from RVers

Site access challenges: Many Gordon-area campgrounds feature wooded sites that require careful navigation. Sam C. at Nelson Lake Lodge explains: "The site was a little tight getting into with our 35' TT because of the approach. But we made it in with some direction from the campground host."

Hookup configurations: RVers should note potential hookup variations. "The water spigot was shared with the site behind us but there was already a 'y' connection installed. Good water pressure," reports Sam C., demonstrating the importance of checking specific site details.

Off-season limitations: Outside peak season, expect reduced services at many Gordon-area RV campgrounds. Kenneth B. notes that at Northland Camping & RV Park, "it appears the place is winding down it's tenure and it's reflected in the 'curb appeal' and infrastructure," suggesting researching current conditions before booking.
