What to do
Lake activities with inflatables: At Silver Springs Campsites, visitors enjoy both a swimming pool and a recreational pond with water features. "The pond with the inflatables in the water, the pool was nice and very clean. The pool area also had a grill with bar food," notes Ryan M. in his review.
Hiking glacial terrain: The Ice Age Trail sections near Menomonee Park offer unique geological features formed by glacial activity. One visitor noted, "We ended up leaving the parking and following the Ice Age Trail for about a half mile, which was all paved and followed huge power lines which buzzed above our heads. This would be nice for wheelchairs."
Beach access and swimming: Water activities are popular at many parks in the area. "The beach on the shores of Lake Nagawicka is well-groomed, clean, has a seasonal lifeguard and a playground within earshot," writes Ross K. about Naga-Waukee Park.
What campers like
Proximity to Lake Michigan: Kohler-Andrae State Park receives consistent praise for its location. "Beautiful state park right on Lake Michigan. Sunrises so, so beautiful. This campground has everything! Trails, dunes, marshes, forests, and Lake Michigan," writes Kathie M.
Wildlife viewing opportunities: Natural settings provide wildlife viewing across the region. "The campground was close to our intended hiking trail — the Scuppernong section of the Ice Age Trail. It's absolutely gorgeous and will be why we come back again," states Linda N. about her stay at Ottawa Lake Campground.
Group camping options: Some campgrounds specifically cater to larger groups. Amanda K. reports about Silver Springs Campsites, "We came here with a group of four families. It was excellent to have tent, cabin and rv spots available as each family felt comfortable staying there. Very spacious campsites."
What you should know
Off-season limitations: Winter camping requires preparation. David H. notes about Ottawa Lake Campground, "No showers in winter but awesome." The campground remains open year-round but with reduced services during colder months.
Road noise considerations: Some campgrounds are affected by nearby roads. A Corbin P. review states, "It is very close to main roads as I heard traffic all day and sometimes sirens. But honestly pretty good spot."
Reservation requirements: Popular campgrounds fill quickly, especially during peak season. One visitor advises, "If you plan to camp for a weekend, you must make a reservation way in advance." Most sites can be booked 6-11 months ahead through online reservation systems.
Tips for camping with families
Playground access: Families appreciate campgrounds with play areas. "Their playground is awesome and kept all 12 kids ages 1-12 busy for the whole day," reports Amanda K. about Silver Springs Campsites, which offers structured activities for children of various ages.
Beach swimming alternatives: The Playful Goose Campground provides swimming options regardless of weather. "Indoor pool great for kids. Bath house was a bit dated but okay. Coin operated showers, 25 cent for several minutes," notes Beth B.
Educational opportunities: Some parks offer nature programs. "Nice nature center. Laundry facilities available. Beach very nice. Large picnicking day area," writes Kathie M. about Kohler-Andrae State Park, highlighting amenities that make family camping more convenient.
Tips from RVers
Site accessibility: Menomonee Park has some limitations for larger RVs. "The road ways are a little tight," notes Kyle B., indicating that larger rigs may have difficulty navigating certain areas of the campground.
Hookup locations: Some campgrounds have unusual utility placement. Kathie M. mentions about Lazy Days, "Electric hookup for 30c a long reach. For some sites in 'C' bathrooms a long walk." This suggests bringing extra-long power cords and water hoses.
Seasonal considerations: Steve K. advises about Ottawa Lake Campground, "We've been full time RVers for 4 years and this is a beautiful campground close to 'home'. We stay here a couple of times each year for doctor and dentist appointments, visiting family and friends, and general relaxation." The proximity to urban amenities makes this location practical for longer-term stays.
