    Rustic Barn Campground RV Park

    Very clean and well-maintained

    General: 58 sites with various amenities. Some are long pull-throughs, some are back-in, some have 30 amp with or without a patio, and some have 50-amp electric with or without a patio. Tents are NOT allowed. We were greeted immediately upon arrival and asked to sign a waiver and given a welcome packet. The rules are extensive, but most are common sense/courtesy and not at all unreasonable. 

    Site Quality: All had gravel driveways and looked level. Decent separation between sites although they are close together, as would be expected in an RV park. Our site had a patio and decent-sized picnic table but it was chilly when we were there so we ate inside. 

    Bathhouse: Very clean as were the showers. 

    Activities/Amenities: There are many activities offered, including a dog park, basketball, horseshoes, games (cornhole, large checkerboard, and others), a barn with a television, a book library, puzzles, and a pool table. Coffee is available after 9 am. There is also a small chapel available 24/7 and a laundry room. WiFi is also available. There is a camp store with ice, ice cream, some camping supplies, clothing, crafts, and more. We were told several restaurants will deliver to the campground. 

    We don’t typically prefer to stay in RV-style campgrounds, but it was conveniently located with easy access off Route 151 just over the Wisconsin border from Iowa, we were warmly welcomed, and enjoyed our short stay passing through. Pride of ownership was evident throughout.

    Lantern DeForest

    Cute campground - near Madison

    We were in Site# B1. We had Full hook- up with a gravel pull-thru. We travel towing a 14 foot trailer and were able to fit both in our pull through site. My jeep though did not fit. The site was easy to level.

    Our site was shaded with lots of trees. This was a larger sized lot with our neighbors not too close (but we did choose a premium site with a patio and paid extra to be on the end).

    This specific lot comes with a concrete patio The lot comes with a picnic table and fire hole in the ground.

    They have a community Outdoor kitchen-y area with picnic tables.
    They do not provide garbage service at your site so you must walk to garbage dumpster.

    You are allowed to ride personal golf carts. There is really not a need to have a Golf cart because it is a smaller campground.

    They do have a Swimming pool.
    There is a Playground. They also offer horseshoes and a volleyball court.

    They have a great general store.

    The streets are gravel so not great for riding bikes but there are great places to ride bikes outside of campground, especially around Middleton and Madison.

    They have cabins for rent and tent areas.

    They have one shower house. The shower house has the typical stalls. These are kept mostly clean.

    There is a laundry facility. It is a cash only facility, but they have a change machine.

    They have a fenced in dog park and many grassy areas to walk dogs.

    There were no trails to hike in the campground.

    Some fun things to do outside of the campground are the Saturday Farmer’s Market in Madison and multitude of bike trails.

    Mud Lake County Park

    Beautiful park on Miss River. Great value

    Mud Lake is a wonderful county park near Dubuque. Beautiful views of the Mississippi River. We stayed one night on our way to Minnesota. The sites are mostly sunny. The park streets are gravel with gravel sites. The park is quiet except for the occasional train from the nearby tracks. Great value for $21. Electric and water hookups. Marina and boathouse next door.

    Stayed in campsite #35 which has no shade. It was a gravel site which shares a pull-through with site 36. There was more than enough parking for my TT and truck and grass on either side. The site included: picnic table and fire ring. Utilities were located in the rear. 20A/50A electric and water. Site was level. Neighbors were nearby.

    AT&T had 2 bars of LTE and Verizon 2 bars of LTE service. AT&T Speedtest: 47 Mbps down, 1.3 Mbps up. Verizon data VERY SLOW. No WiFi.

    Would stay here again. We camped at Mud Lake Park in a Travel Trailer.

    Fireside Campground

    Quiet and friendly RV camping

    This is a RV campground, with both seasonal and weekend sites. Coin laundry and shower room with 4 showers. They have nice level site in a grassy and sandy area, with enough tree coverage for shade but not so much you’re freaking out parking your camper. Big rig friendly. Decent wi-fi and plenty of space on your site. Dog friendly. They have a big playground for kids, and activities. For us, this was a great place for us to easily set up our camper and use it as a base camp for hiking at Governor Dodge, visiting House in the Rock, and tubing on the Pine River. The staff here was super helpful and friendly, and the seasonal campers were all nice and chatty. We have camped at another RV campground in Spring Green that has a party vibe, and this was a more relaxed atmosphere. We will definitely come here again!!

    Blue Mound State Park Campground

    Great state park with a pool!

    We love this state park for family camping. The sites for RVs have electrical, but no water. The bathrooms are OK, its what you expect from a state park. But the hiking around the park is amazing. There are tons of trails, and 2 wooden observation towers to climb so you can see all the way to Madison on a clear day! If it's a hot summer day, enjoy the swimming pool or head over to Cave of the Mounds where it's always cool. There's also a biking camp ground right off the Ice Age Trail, which makes it a great stop for an overnight or just a break. You're also close enough to drive to Mt. Horeb if you need more action or beer.

    We've always enjoyed this campground because the overnight camping are has fewer sites, and therefore less crowded. It's a nice shaded area with some tight spots. If you are in a tent, some even have gravel pads for a level area that drains well. For RVs, be sure to select a bigger site than you think you need. Sometime's it's tricky to maneuver your camper so big rigs may want to stay elsewhere. Our 30 ft. travel trailer fit fine, with some skilled driving. Lots of trees for shade or hammocks, and bigger fields and picnic areas if you need some space to play frisbee.

    Lake Kegonsa State Park Campground

    Pros, cons, and Caution!

    PROS: large private sites with good space between them in a lovely wooded setting. Very nice hiking trails right from campground. Lake & pet swim area.

    CONS: no water, mosquitos. And… major CAUTION for RVs: 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. Major damage on roof and internally - the RV had to be totaled and replaced. Terrible signage in park does not indicate height of bridge or warn about the oak tree. Our friends reported that the camp host said the park knows about these hazards but hasn’t taken care of them so she will “remind them” for their task list in November.

    Ice Age Campground — Devils Lake State Park

    Winter Beauty Beyond

    We’ve been here multiple times but winter is truly our favorite, ice fishing, snowshoeing etc. The state park is busy in summer but not much in winter.. tons of opportunities in warmer weather which equates to the popularity. The views are fantastic and it’s family friendly. Camping was quiet and you can camp by the lake or further from the lake in the woods. Worthy of multiple returns.

    McKeller City Park

    Nice city park

    Our original overnight camping spot did not work out so we ended up here. A good quiet stay with 30amp service and shaded level sites with mature maple trees. These are back in sites that look like pull through except the other half is another site you share with another camper (backends in fashion). Still reasonable private. Enjoyed our stay


Guide to Mineral Point

Camping areas near Mineral Point, Wisconsin sit within the Driftless Area, a unique geological region untouched by glaciers during the last ice age, resulting in steep ridges, deep valleys, and diverse ecosystems. The area experiences four distinct seasons with summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F and winter lows frequently dropping below freezing. Spring camping often means muddy conditions at non-paved sites due to snowmelt and rainfall.

What to do

Boat access and fishing: Blanding Landing Recreation Area provides direct access to the Mississippi River with boat ramps and dock fishing. "Boat ramp, dock fishing, tall trees all over. Shady sites, water pump faucets, dump station," notes Ruth M. about this Blanding Landing campground.

Hiking opportunities: Governor Dodge State Park features over 5,000 acres with diverse trail systems. "Lost Canyon was BEAUTIFUL and had so many interesting geographical features. The trails behind the hike-in campsites also lead to some cliffs with some really amazing views," reports Mary M. about Twin Valley Campground.

Local attractions: The region offers numerous cultural points of interest within short driving distances. "Nearby are the kitschy House on the Rock and Frank Lloyd Wright's famed Taliesin home and studio," mentions Brian O. about the Twin Valley area, making it a good base for regional exploration.

Campground amenities: Clean facilities and recreational options enhance the camping experience. "Nice rec room with TV, games, books, soft seating, pinball, ping pong, and pool table. Outdoor games set-up on the grass like Cornhole, croquet, etc," describes Chris S. at Rustic Barn Campground, showing the range of activities available at some RV campgrounds near Mineral Point.

What you should know

Train noise: Several campgrounds along the Mississippi River experience train disturbances. "Our first night here the many trains were loud and woke us up, but if you can laugh instead of being annoyed, it is fine," advises Ruth M. at Blanding Landing, a consideration for light sleepers.

Wildlife viewing: The region hosts diverse animal species for nature observation. "There are bald eagles all over and plenty of fish," notes Mallory M. about Twin Valley, providing educational opportunities for children interested in nature.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling challenges: The hilly terrain creates uneven camping surfaces at many locations.

Lots of the campsites are uneven and larger vehicles may have issues getting level," advises Jeanne M. about Coconut Cove RV Resort.

Sites have hard surfaces, fire rings, water, electric," explains James M. about Off Shore RV Park, highlighting the need to verify specific utility connections.
