St. Croix Falls campgrounds offer RV accommodations in a region known for its distinctive glacial topography and proximity to the 52-mile Ice Age National Scenic Trail. Summer temperatures typically range from 75-85°F during peak camping season, while spring and fall bring cooler conditions that attract campers seeking less crowded facilities. Cell service varies throughout the area, with stronger signals in developed campgrounds and potential dead zones in valley locations.
What to do
River adventures: Camp Waub-O-Jeeg provides access to the St. Croix River with a walking path leading directly to the water. "Taylor's Falls and St Croix Falls nearby. Great hiking in the hardwoods in the campground or along the scenic St Croix river," notes one camper who gave the campground 4 stars.
Hiking options: Multiple trails connect camping areas to natural features within a 10-mile radius. At Wildwood RV Park & Campground, "The kids tried the bike trail that they could access right from the campground," according to a 5-star review.
Local attractions: Franconia Sculpture Garden offers unusual artistic displays within a short drive of several campgrounds. "Be sure to check out Franconia sculpture garden if you're staying here and have the time! It's such a fun and quirky place," recommends a Wildwood visitor.
Water recreation: Tubing and swimming options abound at multiple locations. "The campground is nice and clean. Good size spaces. The tubing is a plus. Had one issue with power dropping so we had to pull the surge protector off...Key thing is the river is very clean and sandy bottom," reports a 5-star review from Country Camping Tent & RV Park.
What campers like
Quiet tent areas: Some campgrounds maintain separate sections for tent campers seeking a more rustic experience. At Camp Waub-O-Jeeg, "The Robin site- it was spacious, flat, great sandy soil for driving in tent stakes, has privacy from your closest neighbors, and it is off in its own corner so there wasn't a lot of car or foot traffic."
Family-friendly amenities: Country Camping Tent & RV Park stands out for its recreation options. "This campground is great for everyone! It's has a heated pool, splash pad area, BIG playground area, indoor game room, HUGE sites! You can either relax in the pool or even take a ride down the rum river in a rented canoe, tube, or kayak."
Clean facilities: Campers frequently mention well-maintained bathrooms and shower facilities. "The bathhouse offered private toilet stalls and showers, and we squeaky clean!!!" notes one Grand Casino RV Resort visitor.
Convenient location: Several campgrounds provide easy access to town amenities. "Just far enough off road to be fairly quiet. In city park. Tennis. Frisbee golf. Skateboard park. BB hoops. Toilets. Showers. Boat launch. Swimming. Easy walk to downtown," describes a visitor to North Park RV Campground.
What you should know
Site limitations: Not all campgrounds can accommodate larger vehicles. At Wolf's Den RV Campground Resort & Tavern, a visitor noted: "This campground isn't really a campground, it is more like a summer community. A majority of sites are taken up with permanent RV set ups, and some are super huge and elaborate."
Seasonal schedules: Many RV parks near St. Croix Falls operate only from April or May through October. Country Quiet RV Park and Northern Detour RV Site close during winter months when temperatures regularly drop below freezing.
Road conditions: Some campgrounds have challenging access roads. At Camp Waub-O-Jeeg, a visitor shared: "The roads are rough in spots...The road to the sites named after birds was rough and I was nervous that I would bottom out going up the hill."
Internet connectivity: Wi-Fi quality varies significantly. "Sadly I needed 4 hours of internet and my cellular data here was spotty. I spent this time right outside the office," reports a camper at Wildwood RV Park & Campground.
Tips for camping with families
Water activities: Grand Casino RV Resort provides recreational options for different age groups. "This park had nice spots - grassy with level tar to park on. The pool had a perfect temperature and nice lounging area," notes one review.
Kid-friendly layouts: Some campgrounds feature dedicated play areas within view of campsites. "I stayed here 3 weeks ago with my wife and 2 young children and it was fantastic great playground and heated pool the spaces were well kept and spaced apart 10-10 would most defiantly go again! A ton for the kids to do!" writes an enthusiastic visitor to Country Camping Tent & RV Park.
Special accommodations: Larger family groups should book early at popular times. "We've stayed at Country Camping for years! Great variety of things to do for everyone. Group sites, tent sites, covered wagon sites! Floating on the Rum River, swimming pool with splash pad, little camp store, Golf cart rentals! Our grandkids love it too!"
Tips from RVers
Site angle challenges: At Country Quiet RV Park and Campground, "This is a very nice RV Park. There's plenty of sites and they appear to be expanding. Sites are fairly spread out. Easy loop system makes this campground very easy to navigate through."
Utility considerations: Power capacity limitations affect some locations during peak use periods. "We tent camped for two nights in site CC, which had a small quiet creek beside it. These primitive sites are down a small dirt road away from the main RV camping area and are nicely wooded," explains a camper at Wildwood RV Park.
Parking logistics: Back-in sites can pose challenges at certain campgrounds. "Back-in site was 90 degrees to the road - if the bathhouse parking lot wasn't across from it, wouldn't have been able to swing in on a 24' travel trailer," explains one Grand Casino visitor who rated the experience 3 stars.
