Best Campgrounds near Stevens Point, WI

I have came here a couple times with friends for fall camping. The campground doesn’t have a lot of extra amenities, but still a nice simple campground to be in. There are a mix of sites that have a little more privacy, and others that are wide open which would be better for group setups.

We had a wonderful time on our visit. The facilities were clean, well maintained, and fully stocked! Super nice and helpful staff. Beautiful fall foliage. Some of the walk in campsites are a far walk from the parking. So, if you simply want car camping, make sure you pick an appropriate site!

Campground is adequate, it has a functioning shower house and private spots. I used a primitive campsite and it cost me $30 ($15 if your from WI). That was on top of the $11 non resident park entrance fee. So $41 for a primitive tent site, $47.50 if you count the bundle of firewood I bought from them. So yeah, keep that in mind if coming here as a non resident. I’m sure there are cheaper places nearby.

Site 29 is lovely - it's situated directly on the shoreline with a tiny slice of beach. The weather was excellent and with enough wind to quell the bugs. There was an eagle fishing in the bay with us. Plenty of hiking, canoeing, and kayaking opportunities inside the park, too.

There is a bar and grill across the river with a live cover band on Friday night that could be heard loud and clear. Their setlist was pretty much identical to the 'Songs that Excite the White Folks' playlist on Spotify. We didn't mind it - it was amusing. They respectfully ended their set at 10pm sharp, so no big deal.

Only one of the showers had warm water in the nearby bathhouse, but we were grateful for it. There is nice, dry wood for fires and ice situated at the entrance to the park. There is also a cute little general store just outside of the park that is well-stocked with necessities. It's next to a food truck with a chef who proudly shared that he's from Chicago and serves up homemade gyros off the spit. 100% I'm getting one next time I'm in the area.

Our last day was kind of rough, though. A pontoon full of belligerent, drunken strangers blasting modern armpit country music pulled up to our site, parked their boat, got out, and made themselves at home in our campsite and proceeded to have a party. They blocked our entire beach access with their big fat pontoon so we couldn't use it at all. They got especially shrill when I suggested they park on an equally nice and secluded beach a mere 100 ft to the north that wasn't someone's campsite. They said too bad, they do it every weekend and that they're on public property. I'm pretty sure that's not how campsites work and what they were doing is trespassing, but I digress. Anyhow, one of the men started shouting some weird, irrelevant, cultish political nonsense that was probably intended to be offensive (while his unfortunate teenage son looked like he was about to keel over from cringe wishing his dad would keep his embarrassing opinions to himself). The irony of their 'don't tread on me' slogan was lost on them - they should just have a Jolly Roger mounted on their pontoon.

It's obnoxious that these folks make a habit of colonizing occupied sites instead of reserving them like everyone else, but for us, this was an isolated incident. Everyone else we encountered on the trip was delightful and gracious.

Anyhow, we decided to pack up a few hours early and head to Wisconsin Dells instead and we had a blast there, too.

Nestled between towering trees, the campsites here were clearly marked and tidy. Each site has a nice fire ring with grate. Main road is paved and sites are small gravel. Hiking/running trails are wide enough to accommodate strollers.

Definitely recommend for a seasonal home away from home

Great Place;  Central to many key places with very low rates.  Clean and Friendly Next to a huge restaurant and bar that have the lowest prices for above average food.  Definitely recommend.  Overnight sites easy to get into and large sites.

This campground is nestled in a stand of tall red pine trees so shade is found everywhere. The check in process was easy and quick. The roads connecting the sites are adequately wide. Just know that all of the sites are 90 degree back ins which can be tight with longer rigs- especially if your neighbor across the road has their vehicle or toys parked right up to the paved surface. The only thing I would be critical of is the bathroom/shower house. The showers are a bit odd where one door (that locks) opens to the only 2 shower stalls for your gender in the entire building. So if you’re cool showering with a buddy or your kids that’s no bid deal. This campground is mostly all seasonal campsites and some are impeccably maintained and elaborate and some are REALLY run down. I doubt you could tow some of those campers out. We stayed here for EAA Airventure in Oshkosh and it was only 40 minutes away.

Excellent campground! Well maintained and easy to maneuver around. Quiet and enough sun and shade for everyone. Owners are helpful and very nice! Nice playground for the kids, swim beach for great summer fun, campground store/food/drinks if you’re hungry or desire a cold drink to beat the heat and such amazing riverside views that melt the weeks stress away! We will definitely be back to this jem of a campground! Come see for yourself, don’t take my word for it!

My husband & I have had a permanent campsite for 30 years at Enchanted Forest Campground. We love it there. Owners are friendly and really care about their campers to ensure a safe and fun atmosphere for everyone. We look forward to spending every weekend in the summer at the campground. We have made lifelong friends with the owners and fellow campers. There are family friendly activities that planned throughout the summer for all ages

We began camping on a seasonal site at Rose’s Enchanted Forest Campground in April of 2023. This was our first adventure in seasonal camping. We were very unsure of what we were doing as we have always used a pop up. The owners were extremely helpful. They have answered all of our questions with grace and helped out every time.

This campground doesn’t have all of the amenities that a large campground has. That also made us a little hesitant but quickly learned we did need a swimming pool or bar. They have a beach with several docks as well as a jumping dock. The beach area is clean and well maintained. There is a large field that has a playground and a large area for planned and unplanned events. They also have some of the best people, you are never far from a helping hand or good conversation and someone is always cooking something.

Most importantly, the owners have made this campground a family. Everyone is willing to help out everyone. We have participated with our fellow campers to rally around all those that love this campground as much as we do. This campground, these owners shows up for their family whether it is a fund raiser for a medical crisis, an animal rescue or a good old games tournament in the field.

We could not be happier with the decisions we have made to be here and to stay. We are looking forward to all the new adventures that are waiting for us for years to come. Anyone looking to start camping with a seasonal campground, this is definitely a place to check out!

I will admit, I was skeptical about a permanent site; as I enjoy exploring new places.  With that being said, after only a few visits to the campground, I was hooked.  It has become my home away from home.  The fellow campers and owners have become family. During the peak season there are always activities for both kids and adults alike.  On off weekends still plenty to do between the lake, playground or just hanging out.  The owners have been extremely helpful and go above and beyond for all the campers and continue to improve the grounds.  I could not be happier with my decision!

Recommended by two locals, this campground is mostly for RVs but they do have areas away from the RVs.  The seasonal campers all appear to have golf carts that they run around all over the place.  The teenagers stay active into the night but it didn't bother my sleep but a few times.

Good trees and tree spacing if you want to hammock camp.

Full bar with standard bar fare available on-site.

Overall, a very welcoming campground.  The staff were excellent.
