      First stay at this campground and would definitely go back

      Stayed for the first time at this campground in July and loved it. We stayed on a tent site, it was huge and had electric. I love that the campground is right on the lake and there’s quite a few amenities for people who boat. It is pet friendly and the bathrooms are quite a walk but clean and hot water is available.

      High Cliff State Park Campground

      A Gem!

      Woodsy camping, multiple hiking altitude options including cliff views of Lake Winnebago, historic burial mounds, preserved lime kilns, equine trails, picnicking area, boating opportunities and a beach for swimming. Spend a day or a week! You’ll never find yourself asking what to do. I grew up in the area and have been here many, many times. To camp, to hike for the day, to trudge into the campground during winter to have a day-fire, coordinate family reunions, train with a backpack on the lime-kiln trail and swimming with the dog. Really, it’s all here. Mostly not super busy and when the traffic is heavier, everyone is very nice. Picnic areas can get buggy as can the lake get green, all depends on the time of year and season. Family and pet friendly. Great spot near the Fox Valley.

      Calumet County Park

      Great for groups

      The sites on the lake are huge! They are perfect for going with groups of people (Cook on one, set up Games on the other, and you can easily fit two cars out of sight a tent everything… ) however the sites do not have any privacy - the only wooded part is shoreline.

      I have a very nice check in/camp store it’s brand new. The main shower house bathrooms are very clean very nice except you have to pay for the shower. Rest of the restaurants throughout this campground our pets toilets.

      This is not the best campground I’ve been to but it’s definitely not the worst in fact I go every year with a A group with small kids.

      High Cliff State Park Campground

      So much to do for everyone

      No matter what your skill level you can find a trail here from easy to challenging to hike or bike.  There is a beach, a marina, Lake Winnebago, horse trails, hiking, biking and pet beach and picnic area.  The park is very clean and pretty.  There is a playground, several vault toilet areas spread around and a shower house.   Some sites have electric and there is a dump station and water fill up.   

      Both AT &T and Verizon provided good service and the ability to stream.  Spaces are large and have many  trees for shade and privacy.

      Always go to camping spot!

      This is our go to place every spring, summer or fall! We like to travel all over the place and try different place but this is always a must to go to as well as last minute let's go camping spot. The owners are so friendly as well as everyone that camps there. They have a nice pond for swimming and a playground right by it for the kids. Pets are allowed which is great!

      We love it!

      We chose this campground on a whim since we wanted to be near Lakewood where I would spend summers as a kid. We love this place and ended up choosing it for both of our camping trips last summer. We in fact got the same exact site and it’s our favorite anyway. This campground is pet friendly- We took our bulldog camping with us. We checked out the beach and it was very accessible. The showers , Bathrooms and Vault Toilets were all clean. We did enjoy the hiking on the campground but there were some parts that were a little overgrown. Overall we love this place and it’s our go to!

    Guide to Marion

    The Marion area lies within Wisconsin's northern hardwood forest region with elevations averaging 850-900 feet above sea level. Local waterways include the Embarrass River and several small lakes that provide water recreation opportunities throughout the camping season. Winter temperatures frequently drop below freezing, with summer highs typically reaching 75-85°F from June through August.

    What to do

    Water activities at Tilleda Falls: The Embarrass River creates a small cascading waterfall with a swimming area at Tilleda Falls Campground. "Swimming area, waterfall, steam, fishing. This camp has it all," notes camper Kathy S. The riverside setting provides natural recreation without requiring additional equipment.

    ATV trail riding: Tigerton OHV Park offers direct access to local trail systems. "This place is beautiful. Especially if you can get a spot on the river. Everyone is so nice and fun," according to DeAnn M. The park maintains designated riding areas suitable for various skill levels.

    Fishing opportunities: Keller Lake Campground provides access to both lake and river fishing. "Quiet spot not many campers. Nice rapids by dam. Some hiking and fishing," reports a camper who appreciated the less crowded environment with only five available sites.

    What campers like

    Family-focused amenities: Pine Grove Campground offers extensive children's activities. "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," shares David K.

    Seasonal themed events: Special weekends with planned activities happen regularly at many Marion area campgrounds. "Halloween starts early here! This weekend there was a screening of The Nightmare Before Christmas (one of our favorites) and loads of cool decked out campsites," writes Jaime N. about Pine Grove Campground.

    Swimming areas for warm weather: Natural water features provide relief during summer months. Mary P. from Tilleda Falls Campground writes, "On the Embarrass River, a lovely small cascading falls and swimming area. Small store, nicely maintained grounds."

    What you should know

    Site layouts and spacing vary: Some campgrounds offer more privacy than others. A camper at Fawn Lake Campground notes, "The tent sites at this camp ground are in the back of the campground located in the woods! There is a small pond within the campground which you are able to swim in, kayak in and go frogging in!"

    Additional fees for amenities: Activities and rentals often have separate charges. Sarah J. reports about Pine Grove, "To rent a paddle board it was $15 per hour. By the time you got them, got in the water, it cost us $45 for 3 kids for way less than an hour. $50 to rent a golf cart."

    Shower facilities vary: Some campgrounds have pay showers while others include them with your stay. One reviewer mentioned, "The showers are pay showers- a quarter for 3 minutes. First time I seen that."

    Tips for camping with families

    Playground proximity: Choose sites near play areas for convenience. Joe W. from Pine Grove Campground says, "Has a nice sand beach with clear water for swimming, as well as a pool area that are both great for the kids. There's also a few animals that you can go over and feed if you like."

    Consider noise levels: Some campgrounds have evening activities that may affect sleep schedules. "If you're too close [to the office], the dance parties that they host can get a bit loud, but are still fun for the kids to drain some energy," notes Joe W.

    Multi-generational activities: Embarrass River Campground and ATV Park offers options for various age groups. "If you dont have an ATV you can always just kick back and relax or go to the track and watch a race if they're hosting an event that weekend," Matthew J. explains.

    Tips from RVers

    Full hookup availability: Several pet friendly camping options near Marion, Wisconsin offer different levels of hookups. James R. noted at Fawn Lake Campground, "We had a long spot with full hookups. Park has a playground, small lake with a beach."

    Maneuverability considerations: Not all campgrounds accommodate larger rigs. At Tilleda Falls Campground, Eric S. observed it's "Well maintained and easy to maneuver around. Quiet and enough sun and shade for everyone."

    Off-season advantages: Visiting during shoulder seasons can provide a more relaxed experience. A camper mentioned, "We visited Fawn Lake in 2019 as our first trip with our new RV. Friendly owners, quiet spaces and beautiful wildlife!"
