"With the rain and the proliferation of mosquitoes, we were wandering around southern Wisconsin without a plan when we stumbled across this county park. 50 sites, many with electric and very reasonably"
"No water on sites but spigots located throughout the park. Dump station right at the entrance but there's plenty of room to maneuver around there. Could get congested if busy."

Camped here with 2 friends during a cross country road trip."
"Just a quick 2 hour drive from our home in Chicago, with large wooded sites for privacy. Clean bathrooms."

"Small campground, but you play disc golf and lovely trails! So close to get away from the city."

"It is up and away from the rest of the park a bit and typically almost every site has full shade. This is important in the summer months."

"River right behind our campsite. Some sites were a bit small but we managed to reserve one big enough for a trailer and a tent. Somewhat closed in with a lot of vegetation. Kids loved the river!"

- Close to a many points of interest."
GuideIt was very pretty with and without snow. Lots of wood to burn. Nice and quite.
ScoutI called to reserve two sites months ago for Memorial Day weekend, asking specifically for adjoining sites since it didn't appear there was any way to do this online and we're camping with friends. The person answering the phone and taking my payment for the sites booked sites 77& 78 in my name. Today I called to confirm the reservation and find out the site numbers and it turns out we are clear across the park from each other at sites 16 and 78 and there are no other adjoining sites available. I guess we'll make the best of it since we already paid and really have no other options, however I'm incredibly disappointed that they couldn't follow through on a simple request when an accepting our payment. The customer service here sucks. I won't be back. I'm assuming our friends and their family won't either, and I’ll be sure to share my experience far and wide. Why on earth would I call to reserve two sites on the opposite ends of the park 10 months in advance? What if these were minor children staying in one of the sites? Ridiculous!
TravelerStayed at park while traveling through the area. Needed an overnight place to stay. Several miles from highway. Place was quiet with large lots. Potable water and dump station available. Electric only on lots. Showers and restrooms available. Park surrounded by farm fields with geese landing all around. Decent place.
ScoutThought about brining my family here this summer but was chased off the property with my little girl for trying to look around and apparently "flying through the sites" going 8 mph. Wonder if they treat all new business this way? Think ill take my family somewhere more family friendly.
GuideDevil's Lake is one of my all time favorite state parks, and holds many fond memories for me. I have led youth camping trips here, gone on group trips with friends, and my now husband proposed to me here. I love love love Devil's Lake!
As far as tent camping, I don't love the campsites. There is very little privacy between sites, it is always packed, and there is lots of noise. The first night I stayed here, the group across from us kept us up until 2 am!
However, Devil's Lake is truly a fantastic place - we stayed for several days and had a blast in spite of the poor sleep.
GuideI went on a group trip to Devils Lake. Having camped at Devils Lake before, we decided to camp somewhere quieter in the area. My expectations were low going in, but Mirror Lake really wowed me. The park was beautiful and quiet. The campsites were very large. We came in a group with multiple cars and tents, but the sites easily accommodated us. The pine trees were gorgeous! The park was quiet at night, and there was great hiking and paddle boarding in the park itself. It was an incredible Basecamp for our devil's lake trip!
ScoutWe had a great time in this hidden gem. It is run by the county and was much more than we expected from a county run facility. We had a very nice cam site that allowed us to pull through with our pop up. There are very tall trees around the entire campground giving you some respite from the sun and the heat. The bath house is easily within walking distance from anywhere in the campground. Many people that we met have been coming back for years (this was our first time there). They have fire rings and picnic tables and firewood for sale at the entrance. They allow dogs and the ranger is frequently visible throughout the day. You are a short distance from the river and the surroundings are wonderful. You are 20 minutes away from stores and restaurants if you happen to need them and also a short drive to Wisconsin.
TravelerMy family and I enjoy the rural setting but its close proximity to several communities. With smaller children having resources available was nice. Astico provides us the camping experience with access to amenities for a young family. It is one of our favorites for a quick get a way.
