ScoutNothing special but a nice spot if you need somewhere to park your camper and stay. Electric and water hookups, decent showers and bathrooms. Septic on site. We stayed here for an event at the fairgrounds but there were also several others staying here while they were in town for work.
ScoutWe have been annuals here for now our 12th year and it’s been a horrible experience ever since Thousand Trails bought it 4 years ago! Today is July 5, 2026 and the pool is closed again, it’s only been opened for 6 days this year! The hours are 11 to 5 pm and closed from 1:00 to 1:30, 2:30 to 3:00 when it is open! This is only the beginning of the horrible campground! If we didn’t have a Park-Model with a large patio and pavers that are grouted we would leave now and never come back!
GuideWe stayed here one night and had a great experience! The restroom/bathhouse is super clean, conveniently located, and NEW. A refreshing thing after roughing it. We took a trail down to the trussle bridge that goes across the river. Nice nature view. Fishing was good too, near the bridge at the entrance to the park. My son was there maybe 5 min and hooked a decent sized pike. We brought our two dogs and they enjoyed the quiet of the park and the trails. Only complaint I had was that someone previously had left dog poop at our site, but sometimes people don't clean up after their pets. Our site had electric, only 30 amp hookup but we had a 50 amp adapter and it worked well. We would definitely stay again.
GuideThis is a wonderful campground with many amenities for the whole family. The sites are a good size, plenty of shade. Indoor and outdoor pool, Kiddie pool, mini golf, playgrounds, pond with inflatables, pond to fish(catch and release) paddle boats, row boats, kayaking. gaga pit, shuffleboard. Wonderful store stocked with everything you need and then some. They have a grill if you want to order food. Game room and arcade. Clean bathrooms and showers. Storm shelter under the bathrooms and showers. I can't say enough what a wonderful campground this is!!
ScoutShowers, pool, a general store, arcade/game room, stocked fishing pond. We rent a deluxe site monthly and we love it here! Being long term, they pump us out twice a week! Which is great! They take really good care of their guests!
ScoutReally nice place we have been here before but after this trip we learned to stay away from the main park area unless you want to hear kids screaming at 10-11pm and drunk parents cheering them on. Our first visit on the hill was really nice and had a lot of room from neighbors.
ScoutFriendly camp hosts. Nice large sites with even and level grass. There are padded FHU sites available. Immaculate bathrooms and showers. Fresh, clean water at hookups. Very quiet despite being on major roadway. Good value. Would stop again.
ScoutThis State Park is located along the Niagara Escarpment. The campground is near the bluff and gives a great view of Lake Winnebago. The vault bathrooms are open year-round as is half the campground. During the summer, the store at the marina offers camping gear and there is a restaurant near the golf course outside the park. I camp here regularly, rock climb, and run the trails.
LegendThe Group Campground at Harrington Beach State Park brings a completely different energy, offering an expansive, open setting that feels made for large family reunions, scout troops, family birthday party overnighters and lively gatherings that stretch long into the evening. Unlike the more intimate family sites, this area is designed for scale, with wide communal spaces, larger fire rings and plenty of room for picnic tables, shared meals and kid-filled games of tag and flag football. We passed through and couldn’t help but smile watching a group roast marshmallows together while another set of kids played flashlight hide-and-seek across the open field. While it is less private and more bustling, this locale creates a joyful sense of togetherness that feels perfect for celebrations and group bonding. While the restroom and shower facilities were mediocre (at best), they were functional and clean. But the real star here is the close proximity to Lake Michigan. I’d recommend this Group Campground for larger parties who want space to spread out, EZ beach access and the freedom to make memories together in a beautiful lakeside setting.

Swimming in natural lakes: Long Lake Campground at Kettle Moraine State Forest offers two separate swimming beaches with sandy shorelines. "The lake is big, so motorcraft are allowed.

Local attractions within 15 minutes: From Waupun Park Campground, campers can easily access Waupun's community amenities. "We enjoyed the fall colors and privacy for a long stop on our trip across the northern border.

"The deep spots offer gorgeous private, well wooded area that makes you feel like you're all alone in the woods," notes a camper. Another visitor adds, "Enjoying our time here, in spite of the rain.

"Campground facilities are clean, 30 amp at the electrical site worked perfectly. Other campers amazingly friendly. Sunset on the lake is ridiculously beautiful!" shares Elizabeth S. Another camper, Graisyn S., confirms: "Very nice, clean and quiet campground. The showers are a bit of a hike from most sites but they are private/individual rooms."
Oak and hickory forest settings: The mature forests provide natural shade and wildlife viewing. "The campground is in a beautiful oak/hickory forest with many birds, chipmunks and skeeters(pack protection)," advises Kay K. about Waupun Park Campground. The wooded environments throughout the area offer scenic settings while keeping sites cooler during summer months.
Site selection matters: At Long Lake Campground, various loops offer different experiences. "We walked some of the other loops and they did not all seem this way, 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," reports Darren L.
Reservation timing: Most campgrounds fill quickly during summer months, especially on weekends. As one camper noted, "At the last minute we decided to go camping for the holiday weekend. We called 6 campgrounds close to us on Thursday at noon and this was the only one with availability."
Weather considerations: The region experiences variable spring conditions. At Ledge County Park, a camper shared: "After leaving a flooded, soggy Blue Mounds State Park we decided to see if we could get a site here on Saturday afternoon so we could complete a weekend camping in our new trailer. We were thrilled to be able to choose from maybe 20 unoccupied non electric sites."
Playground access: Several campgrounds feature recreational areas for children. At Ledge County Park, Cher & Walter P. mentioned the family-friendly amenities: "Nice, clean & family-type park! Hiking, observation deck, playground & volleyball!" The playground facilities help keep younger campers entertained.
Swimming options for different ages: Breezy Hill Campground offers alternatives to lake swimming. "Indoor pool great for kids. Bath house was a bit dated but okay. Coin operated showers, 25 cent for several minutes," notes Beth B. This provides a swimming option when weather conditions aren't suitable for lake activities.
Family activities: Mauthe Lake Campground includes several family-oriented amenities. Kaylyn C. describes it as having a "Nice beach/swimming area, bike path, and playground for the kids.

Historical attractions."
Site dimensions and accessibility: For larger rigs, some campgrounds offer more suitable sites than others. At Long Lake, visitors should note, "Large sites, plenty of trees for hammocks. Free showers! A short bikeride to the beach," according to Jamie R.
Hookup variations: The Playful Goose Campground offers various utility connections. "Pay attention to reservation online or call….they have multiple types of sites. We accidentally got one without sewer, but they have dump tank on property so no issue," advises Beth B. Electrical connections vary across campgrounds, with some offering 30-amp service.
Road width concerns: Some campgrounds have narrow internal roads that can challenge larger RVs. As Amber C. observed, "They pride their grass, as they should because it is nice, but the roads in campground were all very narrow so we had to drive on it if a car was coming. If they could widen the roads a bit it would be helpful for driving as well as save their grass more."
