Across southeastern Wisconsin, RV parks vary significantly in utility infrastructure and seasonal availability. Most campgrounds around Menomonee Falls close between mid-October and early April, with Fairgrounds RV Park in Dodge County being a notable exception. Many facilities include dump stations, though waiting times can be considerable during peak checkout periods. Leveling challenges exist at several parks—one visitor noted that "to level my 35 foot motor home my rear tires had to come off the ground by at least 6 inches." Cell service fluctuates throughout the region, with Wisconsin State Fair RV Park offering good WiFi connectivity while more rural locations have limited coverage. Pet policies generally allow dogs with standard restrictions, and firewood is commonly available for purchase on-site.

    Big Foot Beach State Park Campground

    nice state park with big sites and small beach

    Nice large sites. gravel spot for arc/trailer. fire pit and picnic table. trails for hiking are nice, but the overall camping area isn’t very big. 100 sites only. 30 with electric. this was the first time all season that the bugs Annoyed us. the beach is about 10 feet of sand off a busy road and is not pet friendly. nice spot to stay if you want to avoid paying lake Geneva prices for a room.

    Fairgrounds RV Park

    Dodge County Fairgrounds RV Park

    I camped here for a month in July and now a week in Sept. Nicest people ever.
    20/30/50 amp service Most sites have water hook-up Restrooms Dump station Campfires in above ground fire pits supplied by you Pet friendly I like some privacy and the opportunity to let's my dogs play freely at my campsite when I can. The site I'm at has plenty of space for them to run around my site without disturbing other campers. They have a camp host on site who is very helpful. They also have events, usually on the weekend that you can visit or participate. While I've been here they've had a circus, a carnival, a flea market, and something similar to a farmer's market. Where I've chosen to camp, I am out of the way and can enjoy the event and come back to my campsite and continue my camping without being disturbed by the event.

    Kettle Moraine State Forest Long Lake Campground

    this is a BIG campground

    We had been to this area three years earlier, and stayed at Mauthe lake. That suited us better because it is motorboat free, and we have a canoe. Long lake is more suited for powerboats. the sites are also large and would handle big rigs. There are six different campground loops, none near the lake (though the 700 loop has a trail to the boat launch). We stayed in the lower 900 loop, the smallest. Our site, 906, was about 30 feet from site 730. all the sites in this loop are large and deep with the exceptions of 908,910, 912 which are right up against the road and have no privacy. sites 713 & 705 run into each other and are the best for a large group and a pull-through if you get them together.
    Pit toilets only. Fire rings are decent. Wood is available 24/7 through a huge "vending machine" that costs $6 (a five and a one, no change) Wood from the shed costs a dollar less, but only when the ranger is at the front gate.
    There's a beach with a concession stand and a separate boat ramp with parking.
    We went canoeing at the very small nearby Silver lake and had it all to ourselves.
    Sad news is that the Parkside general store, with it's ice cream and home-made maple candies is out of business. Zahn's trading post is temporarily closed, and the Woodland Creek Supper club (both in New Prospect) was undergoing renovation when we were there, a shame as we loved it last time.

    Pilgrims Campground

    Hillside Tent Camping & RV Bliss

    Conveniently located next to absolutely nothing just due northwest of Fort Atkinson, you’ll love Pilgrim’s Campground for its successful delivery of (capital letters) P&Q! What I love most about this location is how they keep all the RV campers penned in up against the slight diagonal embankment, which actually provides some pretty phenomenal views of the surrounding areas (if not your next door neighbors) as well as excellent drainage and subsequently separated from the primitive TV campsites. These latter sites are placed just due southwest of the grounds and are pitched perfectly in a tree-lined meadow, encircled by freshly cut corn fields, where you’ll find no shortage of amazing animals coming to graze throughout the day (and night) from deer, raccoons, opossums and endless tag teams of squirrels. 

    Because there isn’t so much around, be prepared to bring everything with you (save ice and wood, which is sold on-site). While the bathroom / shower facilities are just passable, what you are giving up in terms of creature comforts is more than made up for in the sheer proximity to all of nature. During the warm summer months, there’s a small in-ground pool on-site, which sits right in front of the main office. All of the standard camping surround-sound elements are here from fire rings and picnic tables to water, electrical (50 / 30 / 20 / 15 amp) and sewer hook-ups. In all, there’s about 100 sites here at Pilgrims Campground, with the lion’s share of this pet-friendly property dedicated to overnight and seasonal RV / 5th Wheelers offering both back-in and pull-through sites. 

    Insider’s Tips? Here’s a few: (1) If you don’t mind some rough hiking, there’s fantastic ‘spazierengehen’ to be had just wandering around the countryside in the bountiful corn and bean fields or head over to nearby Dorothy Carnes County Park for some decent trails to explore; (2) In the event that you don’t like being awaken too early from all of the nearby roosters, then bring some ear plugs; (3) When you grow tired of having to forage through either your on-board RV mini-fridge or bear-proof Cordova roto-molded cooler, then look no further than ‘What’s the Point’ (no, seriously, that's the name of the restaurant!) for traditional Midwestern comfort food like corned beef & cabbage, fried fish, BBQ ribs and prime rib; (4) Should you come bearing watercraft and looking for a decent spot to dip your kayak or canoe at, then check out Rose Lake State Natural Area, which BTW is quite small, but very convenient, or try out much larger Red Cedar Lake or Lake Ripley; and (5) Cell coverage and WiFi is pretty horrific in these parts, so bring a booster or plan to leave civilization behind you. 

    Happy Camping!

    Wisconsin State Fair RV Park

    Really Great City Park

    The quality of most city parks, especially on the east side, is abhorrent simply because they can be. I always have low expectations when I enter a city that basically has one option for RVs.

    That being said, this is one of the best I’ve been to. Granted, it features things you would expect from a city park: cramped spaces, lots of noise, high nightly rates. But we lucked out getting one of the bigger spots.

    Pros: LOCATION, Good wifi, great signal, friendly staff, lots of washers and dryers with a change machine, will accept and hold packages for guests.

    Cons: The sewage system is strange at this park. We couldn’t reach ours during our stay and a camper had blocked the dump station so we pulled through in a vacant spot to dump. The pipe is highly elevated, making the process more hands-on than one would like. Bathrooms could have been cleaner, but I mostly blame guests for not picking up after themselves. The automated site selection process, which many have mentioned, is frustrating. I received six emails between Mar-Jun indicating they switched my spot. I noticed they placed a lot of large fifth wheels in tiny back in spaces when plenty pull throughs were available. Wonky system.

    Kohler-Andrae State Park

    Kohler-Andre

    Living rather close to this park, this is our "go-to" place to camp. It has a great variety of activities available. There is a beach AND a dog beach so it's pet-friendly. Dogs are not allowed on all of the trails, but there are many you can take them on. Being on the water, you can swim, kayak, fish, or just soak up some rays! There are also non-reservable sites available. There are many electric sites, clean bath houses, friendly campground hosts, some rather private sites as well. It's a short walk from the campsites to the lake. Our favorite site is next to the woods where we have seen ample deer, turkey, foxes, and birds. Close to town if you need supplies, firewood and ice is available in the park.

    Pilgrims Campground

    Great rates and large sites

    Found this great little campground when I was in a pinch to find a place to put my 45ft fifth wheel. Super friendly staff, rates are reasonable and it is big rig friendly.

    Kettle Moraine Southern Unit — Kettle Moraine State Forest-Southern Unit

    Ottawa Lake Campground

    You can camp year around in this campground. Most recent 2 times were winter camping. No host so buying wood is an issue, but pick a site on the edge and there is more than enough free. Bring a saw. Nice place for solitude. No rowdies in winter. Close to hiking. 10 minutes from a town if needed.


Guide to Menomonee Falls

Most RV campgrounds around Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin operate seasonally with closures typically occurring between mid-October and early April. The region experiences temperature fluctuations from below freezing in winter to humid 80°F days during summer months. Leveling challenges are common at several locations due to the area's glacial terrain, with sites often requiring significant adjustments for proper stabilization.

What to do

Hiking trail access: At Pike Lake Campground, the Ice Age Trail runs directly through the remote camping area. "Many trails, a observation tower with a view of Holy Hill and Pike Lake, and of course the Ice Age Scenic Trail," notes Steve M., who appreciates the park's convenient access to multiple hiking options.

Beach swimming options: The swim areas near Menomonee Falls range from lake beaches to chlorinated pools. "The beach is well-groomed, clean, has a seasonal lifeguard and a playground within earshot," writes Ross K. about Naga-Waukee Park, where campers can enjoy water activities during the April-November season.

Outdoor water attractions: Some campgrounds feature multiple water recreation options beyond standard swimming. At River Bend RV Resort, "four wheel bikes to take out, jumping balloon, pool with multiple water slides, pond with blow up floating slides and climbing activities, canoes" are all available according to Darren L., making it a particularly active destination for families.

What campers like

Wooded seclusion: Several campgrounds offer tree cover for privacy and shade. "The site was actually really lovely and I appreciated the thick brush creating some real seclusion," reports Kendal R. about her experience at Pinewoods Campground, where the natural vegetation creates privacy barriers between many sites.

Spacious site layouts: Campgrounds like Cliffside Park provide ample room between sites. "Good price for a long, level site with water and electric," notes Nancy W., adding that there's "lots of room between sites" at this well-maintained county park.

Weekend activities: Entertainment options vary widely across campgrounds. "Golf cart parade, DJ, band, BINGO" are among the organized activities mentioned by Karli M. at Blackhawk Camping Resort, where social gatherings create a community atmosphere for weekend campers.

What you should know

Urban proximity noise: Campgrounds closer to Milwaukee face sound pollution. "This is a huge parking lot for the State Fair. Very nice staff. Nice facilities were average and clean," reports Jeff and Linda L., noting their proximity to Milwaukee attractions at Wisconsin State Fair RV Park.

Seasonal limitations: Most campgrounds in the area close for winter. "Camping is seasonal - April 1st through November 4th," writes Ross K. about Naga-Waukee Park, which is typical of the operating schedule for most facilities in the region.

Weekend reservation requirements: At popular campgrounds like Cliffside Park Campground, "the price when we stayed there was $28/night, but if you make an online reservation, a $12 processing fee is assessed," reports Nancy W., noting that half the sites can be reserved while others remain available for walk-ups.

Tips for camping with families

Playground proximity: Choose sites near recreational facilities for easy access. "There is a playground within earshot," notes Ross K. about Naga-Waukee Park, allowing parents to monitor children from their campsite.

Activity planning: Several campgrounds offer structured programs for children. "The weekend we were there they had a band. The race track is very close by and the noise from the cars can be pretty loud but not a deal breaker," reports Lauren P. about Plymouth Rock Camping Resort, where organized events supplement natural recreation.

Lake access considerations: Water access varies significantly between campgrounds. "The campground is on the opposite side of the park from the lake, so driving or biking are the options to get from the campground to the water," advises Sugar Maple S. about Pike Lake, a factor worth considering when planning with children who want to swim.

Tips from RVers

Leveling requirements: Be prepared for uneven terrain at many RV campgrounds near Menomonee Falls. "Level sites with electric and water at each site. Well taken care of grounds," reports Nancy S. about Cliffside Park Campground, one of the few locations with consistently level sites.

Year-round options: For winter camping, options are limited. "I camped here for a month in July and now a week in Sept. 20/30/50 amp service. Most sites have water hook-up," explains Karen about Fairgrounds RV Park in Dodge County, one of the few facilities operating year-round.

Wi-Fi considerations: Internet connectivity varies widely. "WiFi was great in some areas, Non-existent in others. No cell carrier works well here at all, so non-functional WiFi areas can be a deal-breaker for connected campers," advises J T S. about River Bend RV Resort, a common issue throughout the region's rv campgrounds.
