    Buckhorn State Park Campground

    West shore sites

    We usually stay at the east shore sites but tried the west shore this time. The shore was not as level as the east side sites but still sandy and shallow for swimming. We could hear the bar blaring music across the lake until 10 or 11pm . There are more trees now than the website pictures show so there is some privacy between sites. Mosquitos were the worst i have ever experienced. The second we got out of the car they were all over us. We used the heaviest deet possible nonstop.

    Buckhorn State Park Campground

    Quiet spot with beautiful views

    We got one of the spots that you needed to hike out to but it wasn’t far at all. There were 2 other campsites beside us but they weren’t reserved so we were all by ourselves. We had a little slice of beach and it was very beautiful during sunset. Bugs were really bad at this time of year. A family of raccoons passed our tent during the night and sounded like they were playing in the water which was cute.

    Hartman Creek State Park Campground

    Good spot

    Pretty full, but also pretty quiet place. Clean bathrooms with showers. Most sites don’t have hookups. There’s an upcharge for out-of-staters. Easy access to trails, lakes, and a short jaunt to beautiful downtown Waupaca. Would stay again!

    Council Grounds State Park Campground

    Nice for a group

    This was our first camping trip as a group with 12 people and 4 cars in July 2023.

    Biggest con was how open/unshaded our site was. We didn’t mind but didn’t love being as close to the other group sites as well.

    We enjoyed being able to rent kayaks and paddleboards and relax on the beach. We also liked the proximity to the pit/vault toilet and water pump.

    Probably won’t return as a group but had a great time!

    Dells of the Eau Claire Park Campground

    Great place

    Great place, pretty trails. This campground just put in a dump station this year which also includes portable water to fill up your tank. Our site is connected to another site so we made sure to get both sites with friends and it worked out great. Couldn't swim due to a high bacteria in the water. No reception for verizon users. Tmoblie had a bar but spotty.

    Medford City Park

    It’s a city campground

    It’s small but the sites are nice with electric and water. A police officer even held traffic at bay and guided me into the site.

    Dexter Park

    Absolutely loved this campsite

    Dexter Campgrounds was a delight to stay at. There was a private bathroom/shower room that made the experience feel luxurious. It is right next to a beautiful river and lake. Very quiet and campers are very respectful. I would absolutely recommend this spot. It was $36 for one night. They also have a place to do laundry. They have camp sites that accommodate electricity as well!
