Best Campgrounds near Marinette, WI

Horrible management, nothing but alcohol & partying all night long. No reinforcement of campground rules or quite hrs. No shaded areas, no showers or flush toilets.  The playground is in an unsecured location and can easy be accessed by the public as they are allowed to drive through at anytime. No restrictions on non-campers entering so you never know who's driving through. I would not recommend this place to families with small children as there has be Registered Sex Offenders allowed in the campground.

A wonderful campground! My family visited at the end of September, and we had the campground to ourselves. The campsites are in a beautiful forest, the showers were clean, the playground and mini golf weren’t in great condition but my kids loved traipsing around in the woods better anyway. We found lots of wildlife but the best was cute little tree frogs! The island itself is lovely with lots to do and see. Restaurants and little grocery store that has everything you’d need. Taking the ferry was really fun and unique! Overall a wonderful place to stay and experience!

The CG was very clean with clean pit toilets. Upper and lower. Lower was near river. Nice trail along river to falls. Water pump by site 1 in upper area. Good base area for fishing the Pike river.

Washington Island is a fun family oriented island. There are beaches all around, a very unique limestone beach that only exists in a few parts of the world and several different activities geared towards families. Everything is on Island time, meaning, life seems to slow down. Chill, relax, lay in the sun on the beach, go for a swim, walk among the millions of lavender flowers, attend a church service on Sunday. Washington Island seems to have a little bit of everything, even some fossils!

The campground available to us was just ok. The showers seemed a long walk, there are pit toilets near the camping spots but if you want running water you have to go to the club-house. The "mini-golf" course was in disarray, the "playground" was old and falling apart, and a lot of the camp ground spots were right on top of the other so do your research before reserving a spot. We stayed in site 12 and it felt like it was a little more private and larger.

The weather was great at the end of Aug; not too hot and not chilly, very comfortable for tent camping. The Ferry ride over was an unforgettable experience that my 6 year old thoroughly enjoyed. I will say that we were able to pretty much do everything the Island has to offer in 3 days and I don't know if I can justify coming back here again, but we had fun slowing down and that's what matters.

Stayed there in August.  The site was nice, campground was not busy which was very nice. Bathrooms are the best we've seen in a long time...super clean with individual shower rooms.  Traveled in 28ft Class C towing SUV...Plenty of room for both in our site .

We travel to the U.P. every year from Iowa and stay here every time we can.

Peaceful, quiet, easy to book and well kept! Bathroom was ice cold and only cold water in bathroom. Very nice hot water in shower house. They made us pay for 2 nights when we only stayed for one on a Monday(not a weekend) but I’d absolutely recommend this campground! Very peaceful!!

Very nice and and quite! Bathroom only has cold water but shower house has nice hot water. We are here on a Monday and it made us pay for 2 nights so that’s my biggest complaint but this is a very secluded and clean park so I’d stay here again!

We were to only ones here camping. This area has 3 sites 2 next to each other west side of lake and 1 on the north side of the lake. All have lake frontage. We choose the single, north of the lake site. The only drawback to this site it is right on the road with mostly ATV, UTV traffic. I would stay here again.

Busy highway noise all night. Showers pool mini-golf. No lake river or fishing.

We stayed in the primitive area which wasn't crowded at all just after labor day.  The sites were nice and wooded with lots of privacy.  It rained most of the time we were there so we didn't get to explore much.  Tried to walk down to the lake from our site, but just got to the top of the cliffs on the lake.

The automated pay system insisted we pay for 2 nights since they considered Thursday to be a weekend night.  This is just silly.  Thursday is NOT a weekend night.  

We only spent one night due to the rain.

I stayed three nights over Labor day weekend. There was an ATV festival in lakewood that i was unaware of until arriving so there was a lot of dust and noise. ATV riders also frequently walk into your camp to use the toilet. I had to adjust my camp for privacy after the first couple of groups.

Aside from that the camp is the perfect size for vans, small trailers or tents. The ground is not very even but you could probably get one or two tents in there.

No fish in the lake. Don't bother trying.

The worst part was finding the pay station. Its at a campsite on highway T about 3 miles south of 64. It's $5 per night cash or check only. I spoke with a park ranger who was checking in at camps, he said they were going to post maps next year at each site.

There is a small easy to climb path straight down to the lake. It's a fairly soft, muddy bank but I was able to launch my kayak easily from there.

If you are hammock camping this is a fantastic spot.

We had site 18 which is right on the water and across from the shower house. It was decently spaced out from the other sites. The shore was pretty level and easy to get our kayaks in and out. The shore is shallow and mostly sand. Nice for swimming. We did catch one bass off the shore. The firepit grate was most of the bars so that made grilling a little harder. Be aware the sites to the east are higher elevation and looked like it was steep to get down to the water. Shower house was nice and clean. The first night we did hear a bunch of teens yelling at the shower house around midnight, but they either got kicked out or left because we didnt hear them again. The waterfront sites are on the main road, so you do hear all the RVs coming and going. Definitely will go back!

There are three sites two small one large site which you can fit larger camper or RV in. Entrances need a lot of TLC washed out and large drop from paved road. Middle camp site has best access to brook I put a 8 foot pop up in it you could go bigger 20 foot max. One site I would say is tent only very tight. Wilderness toilet but they look pretty full.

Small pull off little ways off 64 on mountain lakes Rd. Pick nik table and fire ring. Big site for ATV campers right off trail can probably get toy hauler in here easy.

Didn't camp just stopped and looked. Small shallow lake soft muddy bottom no beach. Two sites close together not much shade at the two theres a third site down road a little bit. Third site is tent only very uneven has wilderness toilet.

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.

We rented a camper for the first time and decided to go here. We appreciated the facilities and the fact that there was help available if necessary.

The campground is big with lots of sites. Some are in a big field that was really crowded. I’m glad we asked for a wooded site.

The biggest downside was noise. We were there over the 4th of July. There were golf carts that circled the campgrounds blaring loud music on the 3rd, 4th, and 5th of July. I get celebrating the 4th but this was pretty annoying.

But overall this was good. It helped me realize I prefer more remote camping. I’m not sure the resort feel of this KOA is for me, but that is a preference. There is a lot to like and a lot to do here.

Wonderful campground with great friendly service. We will definitely be returning on our trips to door county
