Nice, seems recently well updated
Not our typical type of campground but absolutely no complaints. Very friendly atmosphere and more comfortable sized sites than we expected considering what we typically look for. All amenities are very nice.

Water quality issue Large group site
I have camped with a club in the group site for years. Electric sites. No water. You now pay to dump your waste. Price is right for a county site. BUT the water quality suffers from green algae almost the entire season. Fishing can be good. No longer good for nocturnal carp due to water. Group site is still a good deal. They’ve added electric for at least 8-10 campers. Big site. Your own covered picnic area. There are concrete outhouses which we have used as bunkers during inclement weather.

Handicapped
I camped on the handicap site as I am disabled. The site is near the bathroom which is good it's a nice big site. It was big enough for an camper and a tent. Site was clean and well kepted. Was one of the better sites that I've been on.

No longer a nice campground
Been coming here for years. But the rangers and camp hosts will give you tickets for EVERYTHING. I was profiled for fitting the description of a vehicle they had an issue with the week prior and I got a $50 ticket! My campsite was filled with nails and wood staples and the coals in the fire pit were overflowing. There’s no guest parking anywhere near the campsites and they’ll write you a ticket if you park by the bathrooms or have more than 2 cars in your site.

Great county park.
Really liked our site. Didn't feel crowded. Nice beach and trails. Pit toilets were fine as expected.

This park offers 12 miles of trails, scenic beauty, wooded sites and more!
This gorgeous county park in Marathon County, Wisconsin is 1,450 acres of mixed hardwoods forming a two-mile peninsula jutting out deep into the waters of the Big Eau Pleine Flowage.
Eau Pleine is from the French phrase meaning full water or stock river. There are two separate campgrounds–( the West Unit and the South Unit) with a total of 106 sites– about 60 with electric. The daily fee ranges from$18.00 for a non-electric, with no lake view to$23.00 for lake view with electric.
You can hike, bike, or ride your horse on the 12 miles of scenic, wooded trails. The park also offers several fishing points near the entrance and along the three boat landings. There is also a beach, two shelters and scattered picnic areas. And you can enjoy a fun game of disc golf on the scenic wooded course.
We found this park to be absolutely beautiful and definitely give it a double Hell Yeah!!

Great getaway
I love this campgrounds. Big mature forest with water access, boat launches, swimming, fishing. Camping sites are very nice and level w majority elec. Wood available for fires an reasonable. Trails for hiking and lots of wildlife. Kids will love it. We stayed from Sunday thru Wednesday. Very quiet and clean. This is a County Park. The best for the price.

Good Family Campsite
Firewood permits are required and only sold from 8am - 8pm The permit lasts for one day and can only be purchased from one locatIon.
Sites have a little bit of trees between for privacy. Lots of families. Lots of stuff to do. Nice traIls and single-track. Heads up there is a daily fee for disk golf course.
For those requiring cell service, i had 3 bars LTE with Verizon at my site.
Two stars for the firewood hours and privacy (I prefer more between my neighbors and I). Also, not sure about swimming in the water as there was neon green (greener than Chicago River on St. Pats) stuff washed up on the beach.
