It’s a great place to stay they have lots of activities for the kids, it helps that they are year around and their prices aren’t bad.

Ledge County Park in Horicon offers year-round RV camping with electric hookups, water access, and big-rig friendly sites. The park features a sanitary dump station, showers, and clean restroom facilities, making it a convenient base for exploring the Horicon Marsh area. Just 20 miles southwest, River Bend RV Resort in Watertown provides full hookup sites with 50 amp service, accommodating larger motorhomes with its pull-through options and spacious sites. Fairgrounds RV Park, located at the Dodge County Fairgrounds, offers 20/30/50 amp electrical service with most sites featuring water hookups. "I camped here for a month in July and now a week in Sept. The site I'm at has plenty of space for my dogs to run around without disturbing other campers," notes one RV traveler about the Fairgrounds facility.
Many RV parks in the Horicon area maintain pet-friendly policies with designated areas for walking dogs. Cell service varies by location, with stronger signals typically available at parks closer to larger towns. Dump stations are standard at most facilities, though Wisconsin State Fair RV Park (about an hour southeast in Milwaukee) offers full sewer hookups at individual sites along with laundry facilities and propane fill service. Seasonal availability differs between parks - while Ledge County Park remains open year-round, several others like River Bend operate primarily during warmer months. Advance reservations are recommended during summer weekends and fall foliage season when RV sites fill quickly. Most campgrounds accommodate both short overnight stays and extended visits, with some offering monthly rates for longer-term RV camping.

ScoutLake Kegonsa State Park Campground
This campground charges both a site reservation fee ($33 for a primitive mosquito infested tent site) AND an additional day use fee on top of that - a $16 fee on top of that! $49????? For a no hook up single tent site???? Of course the fees aren’t actually published anywhere so you have to reserve it to actually know what you’ll be paying. It’s nothing special so these fees aren’t actually warranted for this place. 👎
Cindy S.TravelerBreezy Hill Campground
A year round place
Very friendly and very clean. 1 swimming pond 2 fishing ponds volleyball courts and 2 off leash dog areas. Showers are free and they have a huge kid play area along with a seasonal swimming pool and hot tub.

Lazy Days
Do not stop here!!
We have been seasonal campers for many years! When we first started, everyone was very nice and we always had a great time. Each years the rules change a bit which is common.The last three years have been horrible! We have had nothing but issues that I brought up to the staff many times. I have had the workers ask me if I was f***in stupid, people stealing stuff off our lot, telling our guest we don’t camp there( even tho they knew they were coming for my daughters birthday party), and much more. They are extremely Strict on the 5 mph. They will scream at you if they see Gravel dust as you drive. The campground is not well maintained. I wish things would not have ended the way it has. I’m happy we found a better family friendly campground to be at where my kids are not scared to be playing in our lot!

Near Ice Age Trail, open woods
Sites are large, well-spaced, many shaded by wonderful large trees. The woods are very open with little understory, and much of the area facing the road is graveled, so you will still see your neighbors. So many hiking options - the Ice Age Trail connects to the campground only a few minutes walk away. Many hiking options, the walk to the Powder Hill Lookout tower is a must. Picnic area and waterfront are a short drive away. Bathrooms were clean and showers free, hot, and strong. Some traffic noise from highway nearby but quiet at night.

Nice Campsites
For a primitive campground, this was a nice-enough experience.
Pros:
- The sites we stayed in and the others that we noticed seemed sizeable and had nice tree-cover
- Having access to the Ice Age Trail was really neat
- Lake access nearby
Cons:
- On the continuum of vault toilet quality, these were on the less-desirable end. We joked about whether it was scarier to visit them when they were dark or when the lights were on. If you love having fly friends keep you company when nature calls, then these are the bathrooms for you! The bathrooms did get cleaned on Sunday morning, but this didn't help the situation very much.
- No showers

Notable bad news
⭐ 1/5— Not a Family-Friendly Experience We have traveled by motorhome for many years and stayed at numerous KOA campgrounds. For many years ! Sadly, this is the first negative review we have ever written. Milton KOA is beautiful and clean, although the sites are somewhat crowded. Most staff members were polite and helpful. Unfortunately, the conduct of one employee was completely unacceptable. Our group included six families with children ages 3–18. This employee used profanity, including the“F-word,” toward the children and behaved in a verbally abusive and threatening manner. When one mother calmly tried to address the situation, the employee moved toward her aggressively, causing her to fear she might be struck, and shouted,“I’m sick and tired of this.” At approximately 9:45 p.m., the 18-year-olds in our group were ordered back to their campsite, even though they were simply walking around and were not being loud or disruptive. Adults were allowed to drink in the pool area, while our children were treated with hostility and disrespect just for being there. No food no drinks.No child or parent should experience profanity, intimidation, or threatening behavior from a campground employee. The campground may be enjoyable for adults traveling without children. However, based on what our six families experienced, we cannot recommend Milton KOA to families with children. We are submitting a formal complaint to KOA Corporate and requesting a thorough investigation. Also, wasp infestation beware if you have allergies .

Great Family Spot
Wonderful family spirt. Great clean showers and bathroom. Pool. Large campstore with lots of amenities.

Astico County Park
Great location, a little noisy. Overall good place
We camped on Site 9, which is at the front of the park near the entrance. The site was mostly level, with electric only hookups. If I had been here before I would have chosen a site tucked back farther to avoid some of the highway noise, but overall it was a good experience. We hiked a mile or two through the park, the bathhouse we used while on a walk was well supplied and clean with bathroom and shower combined, all unisex. We would stay here again if in the area.
Guide to Horicon
Horicon, Wisconsin camping areas surround the Horicon Marsh, a 33,000-acre wetland ecosystem that serves as the largest freshwater cattail marsh in the United States. The region experiences cold winters with average temperatures below 10°F and warm summers averaging 70-80°F. Camping options extend beyond electric hookups with several parks offering non-electric tent sites situated near hiking trails that showcase the unique limestone rock formations characteristic of the area.
What to do
Birdwatching at Horicon Marsh: Located near Ledge County Park, the marsh provides excellent wildlife viewing opportunities. "Nice, clean & family-type park! Hiking, observation deck, playground & volleyball!" notes a visitor to Ledge County Park.
Swimming and water activities: Plymouth Rock Camping Resort offers multiple water recreation options. "They have 3 pools, Mimi golf, outdoor movies, the weekend we were there they had a band," mentions a camper who visited in the summer.
Local events and festivals: Many campgrounds host seasonal activities. At Blackhawk Camping Resort, one camper reports they enjoyed "Golf cart parade, DJ, band, BINGO" during their stay, making it more than just a place to sleep.
What campers like
Spacious non-electric sites: The tent camping area at Ledge County Park offers more privacy than electric sites. "We were thrilled to be able to choose from maybe 20 unoccupied non electric sites... These sites were so spacious," notes one visitor who appreciated the extra room.
Unique geological features: The limestone formations create interesting terrain for hiking. "The park is very pretty. Walking along the trails, you can see where it gets its name! Lots of cool ledges and rock outcroppings," explains a camper at Ledge County Park.
Affordable options: For budget-conscious travelers, Omro RV Park provides economical stays. "Is $15 per night. Dump station and water available, But not at your site. Quiet, clean, well kept," reports one RV camper, noting the value despite limited amenities.
What you should know
Site selection matters: Some campgrounds have significant variation between sites. At Ledge County Park, one camper advises, "Pick site 20... it is the biggest, it's on top of the hill, private on three sides and has beautiful views it is a pull through site which makes it even better."
Weather preparedness: The Horicon area can experience significant seasonal changes. "After leaving a flooded, soggy Blue Mounds State Park we decided to see if we could get a site here," notes one camper who found drier conditions at Ledge County Park during a rainy period.
Noise considerations: Some RV parks near Horicon are affected by nearby highways or attractions. At Wisconsin State Fair RV Park, located about an hour from Horicon, a camper mentions it's "really a parking lot for RV camping off an interstate. very loud and not family place but good for overnight."
Tips for camping with families
Playground access: Multiple campgrounds feature play areas for children. At Naga-Waukee Park, a visitor notes it's a "Nice quiet place to take kids to swim. Beach is clean and there are trees for shade and grills to cook."
Kid-friendly activities: River Bend RV Resort offers numerous structured options for children. "Has everything I could want. Great pool with water slides. Plenty of amenities. Clean sites and lots of fun," reports one family who visited.
Safety considerations: Not all water features are suitable for swimming. At Blackhawk Camping Resort, a camper warns about "a NO swimming sign because there are literally still trailer parts and electric and sewer hook ups under the water from flooding three years ago that never receded."
Tips from RVers
Extended stay options: Several RV parks near Horicon accommodate longer visits. At Wisconsin State Fair RV Park, one RVer shares, "We stayed at State Fair RV Park in Milwaukee for two months while waiting to retire and work out bugs in our new RV. The park was all cement, it was clean and quiet."
Site specifications: For larger rigs, check site dimensions carefully. Ox Creek Campground offers "very nice host and clean RV park with water views for shorter rigs," indicating size limitations at this smaller facility.
Hookup variations: RV parks in the Horicon area offer different utility connections. At Fairgrounds RV Park, campers can expect "20/30/50 amp service" with "most sites having water hook-up" and a convenient "dump station" on-site, making it suitable for various RV types and needs.
