    Long Lake Campground — Kettle Moraine State Forest-Northern Unit-Iansr

    Good campsite if you don’t have dogs

    We stayed 700, enough space, good hiking trail, nice beach. But the pet picnic area was pretty disappointing. Just a small opening for a dog jumping in the water. All the nice beach area was not open for a dog. My pup was pretty sad.

    Breezy Hill Campground

    Great Stay!

    We have really enjoyed our stay here with our two dogs! It’s extremely clean, kid and pet friendly, with lots of amenities. Staff is incredibly friendly! The only downside is that if you want visitors, there is a $5/visitor fee. Other than that, we would absolutely come back here again!

    Long Lake Campground — Kettle Moraine State Forest-Northern Unit-Iansr

    Site 907

    Our site was a bit less secluded than I’d prefer but still very nice. The loop we were on the lower 900 loop, had quite a few sites that could be combined to be group sites. Two sites completely adjoining or with very little separating them. This loop would be good for an option if the group sites are unavailable. Especially the inner loop sites that back up to each other. We walked some of the other loops and the did not all seem this way, stuff especially in the 700’s loop being a bit more wooded with some nice sites being my favorites, and also some nice sites in the upper 900’s loop that were spaced out nicely. Great hiking nearby, flush toilets, showers, nice little beach, plenty of downed wood around and also available to purchase 5$ a stack, pet friendly except no dogs allowed on the beach. There is a dog friendly picnic area near the water though. Nice get away pretty close to Milwaukee, Chicago, etc...

    Kettle Moraine State Forest Long Lake Campground

    Beautiful campground

    I have always loved this campground since I was a teen. We went this past labor day weekend and loved the nice big sites, the paved roads for bikes and rollerblading and the beaches were really clean. We loved just walking around the paths to and from the lake to our site. People were very respectful the firewood was kept in a dry spot (always a pet peeve of mine, some campgrounds dont have the best storage system). Overall great place and we will be back very soon.

    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.

    Shawano County Park

    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.

    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.
