      Crazy Horse Campground

      A little something of everything

      Friendly staff and a nicely stocked store. Has a pool, petting zoo, kayaks, rocky beach, dog park, and a land pillow! The sites are spaced out well and there are more secluded sites so you have the feeling of privacy or big group sites for a big party.

      Wisconsin Dells KOA

      Good campground for families with kids

      A central playground and pool are the biggest draws for families with kids. There's also a prospecting 'sluice' that you can buy for the kids to look for 'fossils' and interesting rocks.

      The campground is located just north of the main attractions of Wisconsin Dells.

      Campsites are not overly generous in size -- typical KOA, where some are 'stacked like cordwood'. Don't go there if you want any privacy from your neighbors.

      Cabins are available for those wanting to 'camp' without a camper.

      Very small dog park area.

      Friendly check in staff. However, we were given a map with our campsite noted and told to wait for a person driving a golf cart to escort us and help us get situated. We waited...and waited...and waited...golf carts came and went, but passed us by. We finally gave up waiting and found out site by ourselves.

      Glacier Valley Campground

      Fun place

      Nice, clean, well maintained campground with something for everyone. Swimming pond is huge with toys for everyone. You can bring your own pool toys. Sites are decently spacious and decently level with some gravel and some grass. Bathhouse is nice & clean. Office/store has some logo goodies as well as any necessities you may need. They had a beer tasting going on, live music at the pavilion- both on a Saturday during our stay. A couple trails around for walks with dogs & a dog park. Lively campground during the day but nice & quiet at night with quiet hours being 11pm-8am.

      William G. Lunney Lake Farm Campground (Dane County Park)

      So Much to Do Worth a Second Visit

      We enjoyed this park so much we have already been here twice and have a third trip planned for this coming September.   There are very wide bike/hiking paths that are paved or stone. 

      The huge lake has boating opportunities and you can rent a boat in McFarland that is a short drive or bike ride.  We rented a boat to fish and then drove across the lake to eat at a restaurant with boat parking.

      The nature center is across the street from the campground and has a small snack bar/restaurant.  There are cranes walking all around and the park is so big it has different types of plants to explore.  There is an observation tower and in the picnic area a playground.  The best part is the boardwalk that extents over the lake and you are walking/riding on water.

      About a half a mile away is a very nice dog park that you receive admission to if you have a campsite.

      Dane County has many parks in their system and we have stayed at several and all are great.

      Lantern DeForest

      nice clean quiet

      My first time at a campsite and new to the rv life. This campground is nice and so are the employees grass gets cut every week, the pool is clean, so is the dog park, my husband likes going to the camp bathroom for a hot shower because our rv only has 10 gallons of hot water. We did 3 months at the camp!


    Guide to Marshall

    Campgrounds near Marshall, Wisconsin offer diverse camping options across central Wisconsin's glacial landscapes. Most sites sit at elevations of 800-900 feet within the Eastern Ridges and Lowlands region, which experiences warm summers with July highs averaging 83°F. Several campgrounds feature spring-fed lakes and restored oak savannas characteristic of this ecological transition zone.

    What to do

    Kayak the Crawfish River: At Astico County Park, campers can rent kayaks and canoes for exploring the river directly from their campsites. "The camp hostess are great. They help with camp wood with they ask if you want bundles or lose choose loose. They also have canoes and kayaks to rent," notes Michael L.

    Explore historical sites: The Sandhill Station area offers access to nearby Aztalan State Park with its Native American archaeological site. "There are hiking trails as well as guide tour booklets. The museum has a small fee, but is a collection of Native American artifacts as well as things from local residents and their ancestors," explains Jimmy P.

    Ride the train to Little Amerricka: Whistlestop Campground provides unique train transportation to a nearby amusement park. "They have a train that comes through every hour during the day to pick you up and take you to the next door amusement park which was a lot of fun we spent the entire day there," says David H., who adds that "the amusement park itself was not too expensive."

    What campers like

    Spring-fed lakes: Lake Kegonsa State Park provides access to a natural spring-fed lake. "Clean facilities, friendly staff, and great trails. No bugs!" reports Brendan E. The park offers both swimming and fishing opportunities.

    Artesian wells: Natural water features at Astico County Park attract many visitors. "We enjoyed the song of frogs and the artesian well," writes Kay K., who also mentions the "nice hiking trails and restored rail bridge" that enhance the natural experience.

    Dark night skies: Several campgrounds offer good stargazing opportunities away from city lights. "It was dark enough to see the Milky Way," notes Kay K. about Astico County Park, which provides relatively isolated camping experiences despite being close to Madison.

    What you should know

    Height restrictions: Some parks have unexpected overhead hazards. At Lake Kegonsa State Park, Kathy L. warns: "There is an oak tree near entry with low branches and it took the AC off our friend's fifth wheel. There is also a low hanging overpass and it took the roofs off TWO fifth wheels while we were staying there."

    Highway proximity: Token Creek County Park sits near major roads, affecting the camping experience. "It's close to the highway, which is a pro and a con. Not too loud though, and electric site with enough shade trees for summer," explains Kim L., adding it's "a great campground to shake out the camper early in the season."

    Seasonal facilities: Many campgrounds limit services seasonally. "For Memorial Day weekend the pool wasn't open, porta-potties near the lake and lodge were still padlocked/closed," reports Michael T. about Hickory Hills Campground, suggesting visitors "wait for later in the year when everything is up and running."
