Best Campgrounds near Plymouth, WI

357 Reviews

Plymouth, Wisconsin serves as a hub for diverse camping experiences in the Kettle Moraine region. Multiple established campgrounds operate within a 30-mile radius, including Plymouth Rock Camping Resort in the immediate vicinity and several options in the Kettle Moraine State Forest Northern Unit. Accommodations range from basic tent sites to full-service RV hookups, with several facilities like Sundance Farm Campground and Plymouth Rock offering cabin rentals. Most developed campgrounds in the area provide amenities such as showers, drinking water, and electric hookups, while more rustic options exist in the state forest areas.

Camping seasons vary significantly across the region, with some private campgrounds like Sundance Farm operating year-round while others like Plymouth Rock Camping Resort maintain a limited season from April to October. The Kettle Moraine State Forest campgrounds typically operate from May through September. Advance reservations are recommended for all developed campgrounds, especially during summer weekends when facilities reach capacity. Sites with electricity and water hookups tend to fill quickly. Many campgrounds feature mixed-use arrangements where tent campers and RVs share common areas. A camper noted, "Whether you're in a tent, popup, tow-behind, or 5th wheel, this campground has a site for you!"

Kettle Moraine State Forest provides the most natural camping experience near Plymouth, with Long Lake Campground being particularly popular for its access to hiking trails and water recreation. Campers consistently mention the forest's extensive trail system as a major draw. Sheboygan Marsh Park Campground offers unique wetland views and fishing opportunities but receives mixed reviews for its facilities. Private campgrounds closer to Plymouth tend to emphasize amenities over natural settings. One reviewer described Plymouth Rock as having "plenty to do" including "3 pools, mini golf, outdoor movies," though others mentioned sites being "packed like sardines" and noted significant noise from the nearby Road America racetrack. Sundance Farm receives praise for its cleaner, quieter atmosphere with "spotlessly clean" bathrooms and reliable utilities.

    Fon du Lac County Waupun Park

    Oak/hickory forest

    The campground is in a beautiful oak/hickory forest with many birds, chipmunks and skeeters(pack protection). We stayed on site 22 which was a nine minute walk from the toilet and had a street light. There are water spigots throughout. Site 21 or 23 would be better. The sites are large and the ones on the outside of the loop are very private. The campground was quiet, especially after dark! There is a train horn occasionally, but it’s distant. The showers were hot and clean. The playground was fun. There is a pickle ball court, so bring paddles. There is also a walking trail.

    Fon du Lac County Waupun Park

    Peaceful wooded camping

    Quiet level throughout. Spots for a couple tents and a camper at each site. Disc golf and a small fishing area. Golf course right next-door so close you could walk to. Most of the sites were in a wooded area, which gives you some privacy. Only downfall for us was distance to the restroom as there’s only one so if you’re in the back of the campground, you gotta walk all the way upfront.

    Waupun Park Campground

There is an outdoor pavilion for groups, firewood for sale at host. Lamp posts light camp road but not overwhelming. Nice shaded sites with mature white oak trees. Enjoyed and recommend if looking for full service campsite.

    Scheffel's Hideaway Campground

    Rude Owner

    My wife and I were looking for a nice campground in this area so we could visit family and my cousin mentioned Scheffel's. I did not read all of the reviews but instead balanced out bad reviews with good ones. Unfortunately, the bad were not exagerrating. Reservation process was ok though not automated. Reserved in January and female owner stated they dont man the phones much while closed. Ok, she seemed nice. Little reaponse from them on followup emails. We checked in on a Thursday. Husband owner guided us to our site and advised us to be aware of crown. Husband was very pleasant. No issues there. Friday morning my wife and I, both seniors, were walking our dogs. We were walking across the playground, dogs had not done anything yet, when the female owner came charging out of her office screaming at us that we cannot walk the dogs there. She stated there were signs. The one sign on the side we entered was fully obscured by a short tree. We started moving in the direction she pointed and my wife said we always pick up after our dogs. She yelled again. She must have stated 3 times she was the owner. I quietly muttered"wow" as I was amazed at her rudeness. She turned and yelled again and I explained we were moving as directed. She started heading back to the office when my wife stated"God Bless You". She was not being sarcastic. We take our faith seriously. The lady turned around and told us to pack up and leave. No reconciling, no working it out. If we were not out by noon she was calling the police. She refused to give us a refund for the 8 days remaining. She has not returned phone messages or emails. We were 800 miles from home and at the beginning of our family visit, I was born in the area. We were very fortunate to find a suitable campground. I have never in my life ever been treated as rudely by someone in the"hospitality" industry. Sorry for the long review. Dont discount the negative on this one.

    The Playful Goose Campground

    Spacious lots, nice staff

    Indoor pool great for kids. Bath house was a bit dated but okay. Coin operated showers, 25 cent for several minutes. 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. They have fire pits on the sites as well as picnic tables. Nice trails within different areas of campground.

    Kohler-Andrae State Park

    Great state park , close to the lake & Sheboygan

    Really nice state park with pretty good space in between sites. Some easy, limited elevation hikes around the campground, and a nice mix of pine trees/marsh/open space. Just a few minutes walk to Lake Michigan and a nice beach. Only flaw is the inconsistency with fire pits, some on the opposite side that doesn't give you much privacy for a campfire. The sites on the road aren't great, but at least the picnic table and fire pits are secluded with those.
