TravelerNot a place for camping. We booked 2 nights site red 12. Streets were very narrow getting to site. The site was literally a dirt island. We had to drive over a curb. The site was so small. There were campers everywhere. We ended up leaving right away and booked a different campground
ScoutThe sites are very wooded and shaded, making them incredibly private. Clean showers
ScoutA very nice campground with a scenic water view. Clean bathrooms and well maintained. $30 per night with water and electric. No sewer hook ups but has dump station.
ScoutVery nice site. Close to Madison and attractions / restraunts. The bathrooms and showers are clean and convenient and they have a double dump site and a potable water fill site. The camp sites are flat with gravel parking and electrical hookups. Multiple new trees recently planted.
ScoutBeautiful ponds nice play area Catch and release
ScoutMendota was great for the clean showers, bathrooms and complimentary water and dump, given it’s a slight disappointment that the camp sites don’t have these hookups. Access to the lake, Middleton and Madison is great and the park itself has a few things to do.
ScoutThis is a fantastic Campground, especially for RVs and families. Large playground and outdoor games, small indoor rec area. During busy weekends with lots of kids and holidays, they have foam parties for the kids where they fill the basketball court with foam 3 ft High. Most sites are permanent sites, but have probably around 20 other 30 amp sites that can accommodate large RVs. There are only a few tent sites, but if tent is your only option and you still want to stay they will rent you an RV site for the tent. New owners are very friendly, and have adopted the same overwhelmingly hospitable nature as the previous owners. Fantastic people and very helpful. It will accommodate special needs or requests as long as it doesn't bother anybody or go against any insurance policies. I've had a permanent site here in the past, and recently started camping again and came to visit old friends. The new owners were still happy to accommodate semi truck parking for my job. I haul milk locally so I work more than I'm off, but the family can still camp and I can come when I'm done work. It is near the Wisconsin River, so it's fairly sand base although the Grass Grows plenty so you're not tracking sand everywhere. The benefits of this is when it rains heavily the sand absorbs the water rapidly. The only negative is the mosquitoes. Be prepared for mosquitoes with lots of bug spray. This is no fault of the campground, all low wetlands in Wisconsin are the same. The bathrooms are some of the best in any Campground I've seen. They are always clean, modernized, and Air condition. There are showers and bathroom stalls near the park. They try to keep families close to the park if possible for the bathrooms and the park access itself. They are really extremely accommodating for requests if it's in their power at all. The owners live at the campground and are always accessible by a simple phone call if after hours. There's a community vibe, with a community fire pit up front and often people are just hanging out outside of the main office. It embodies our Wisconsin way of life and you will find strangers waving at you every time you pass by. It's just our nature, don't be weirded out by the friendliness. The regular permanent campers are all so friendly and always willing to help a newbie or even someone struggling to figure out a problem or even carry things.
GuideFound this campground by chance after the campground I had planned to stay at was a complete disaster. Luckily, they were able to get me a campsite for two nights where I could regroup do a little laundry and chill out also took a bike ride on the bike path.
TravelerStayed hear on a very hot 90+degree day during a road trip, easy to reach from I90/94. Midweek, we were the only overnight guests. -Occasional loud noise from the road and train tracks. -At first was wary of paying for no showers and pit toilets for the price, but pit toilets were actually clean with no odor. -Spring fed swimming pond was good for a dip once you found a cool spot, but there are spots that felt like a hot tub. Beach is very nice sand, and there’s a playground for the kids. -Definitely check out the short hike up to Mill Bluff if you can tolerate steep rocky stairs, the view is beautiful. -Tried to check out the other trail near Camel Bluff but it was too overgrown to continue. -Electrical box is in the middle of the campsite near the picnic table, so power cables will need to be at least 30 feet long to comfortably reach your rig. -National Parks Pass is accepted for vehicle admission (separate from camping fee in WI) as this is part of the Ice Age National Scientific Reserve! -Sites 20/21 are great for proximity to swimming pond and toilets

Disc golf course access: Fox Hill RV Park features an on-site disc golf course through wooded terrain. Visitors can often use the course without additional fees beyond camping costs. "This park has some nature trails, disc golf, and a good size dog run. It's well kept and maintained," reports a camper.

Nice sized site," and proximity to swimming options. Note that summer weekends see high beach usage from both campers and day visitors.
Private wooded sites: Bluewater Bay Campground offers tent sites with substantial vegetation between neighbors. "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!" noted one visitor who appreciated the quiet atmosphere compared to busier parks.
Clean, updated facilities: Ice Age Campground maintains well-regarded bathrooms and showers. "The showers are clean and refreshing," reports one reviewer. Another mentions, "Nice, quiet loop, close to a bathroom with showers and the paved trail."

Winter camping options: Unlike some state parks, Fox Hill RV Park remains open into October with heated facilities. "The owners are super helpful and nice. Once the new area fills in with grass and some shade trees, this place will be 5 stars in my book," reports a late-season visitor who appreciated extended camping options.
Highway noise impacts some sites: Multiple campgrounds near Reedsburg report traffic noise. At Rocky Arbor State Park Campground, "the closer you get to the interstate the louder it gets and one of the loops backs right up to the interstate. So be aware if you are booking the loop it will be a constant hum."

Varying site sizes: Cliffwood Campground features inconsistent site dimensions. "Site itself is small, surrounding sites are also small, especially 139, there was a full-size RV backing into it as we were leaving, and it looked like it would not fit," reports one visitor who suggests researching specific site dimensions before booking.
Wildlife management needs: Raccoons present challenges at multiple campgrounds. "The raccoons were brutal. They broke into our crates twice. Smart enough to figure out the clip mechanism," warns a Sandstone Ridge visitor, suggesting campers use secure food storage or vehicle storage overnight.
Kid-friendly amenities: Yogi Bear Camp-Resort & Waterplayground focuses on child entertainment. "This is a very clean and nice park. Nice fishing and great river. This campground is a fun place to stay with kids. There are activities to keep the kids busy," mentions one visitor to this family-centered property.

Playground locations: Consider site proximity to play areas. "Our spot, F-2, was right across from the playground and great for my kiddo. Only neighbors to the sides and woods behind," notes a Fox Hill camper, suggesting families request sites with playground views for easier supervision.
Beach access considerations: Devil's Lake beaches can become crowded, but Mirror Lake offers quieter swimming. "The kids loved the blow ups in the pond. The pool was nice, but a bit colder than the pond," reports a Fox Hill visitor, referring to water toys that supplement natural swimming areas.
Leveling requirements: Prepare adequate leveling equipment for campgrounds around Reedsburg. One Fox Hill camper warns: "Our site was very unlevel side to side. It took two 2x6 and a 1x6 under the camp side to be level. That made the first step into the coach extremely high off the ground."
Site dimensions for larger rigs: Quartzite Campground accommodates larger RVs but requires careful selection. "Look at the maps and pick your site with care. You either get sun or shade. Bathrooms are both new and old depending on site location," advises one RVer who successfully navigated site selection.
Electric hookup variability: Electrical service differs between campgrounds and loops. At Mirror Lake, "The 202 area has a parking lot for 4 sites and a very short walk to the sites," which may require longer power cords than standard for some RV setups.
Delivery services: Campgrounds near Reedsburg often provide convenience services. "They deliver wood to your campsite when needed," mentions a Fox Hill visitor, noting this helpful offering that saves trips to the camp store, especially important for larger rigs with limited mobility.
