Best RV Parks & Resorts near Stevens Point, WI

This weekend there was a screening of The Nightmare Before Christmas (one of our favorites) and loads of cool decked out campsites. Only a few places with full hook up and ALL by the dump station. Nice amenities, lake, splash pads, mini golf, splash pad outdoor pool, golf car rentals, outdoor movies, a full size haunted house!

This campground was very nice right on the lake. Very well kept and clean. Is plenty of room for any size rig. Dollar General very close. ATV friendly.It had 30 amp and 50 amp And water. $25 per night. $350 per month with full hook-ups. All the roads in the park were paved. Bathroom and showers available, very clean and private. Boat ramps and docs are there Along with free kayaks for the campers. 2 pavilions for large families and get togethers. I would definitely go back to this campground.

This is a small campground. It offers Rv pull through sites with electric and water. Along with a variety of other type of sites. There are many seasonal campsites. It is very clean and well run. The owner - Reid was great. It has a small pond to swim in and is also located on big lake. They have boat rentals. I only gave it 4 stars because we prefer full hookup but they did offer pump out service for a small fee. Great location with lots of things to do in the area.

Such a wonderful experience! After a bit of uncertainty about how to access the sites (they were listed some places as "canoe in") we were pleasantly surprised to see the sites were just a walk over a bridge :)  All 3 canoe sites are on a small island. (We were lucky enough to be the only people camping at any of the sites!)

 All of the canoe sites are great!  We stayed in site #1 which was closest to the bridge (and bathroom just over the bridge ;) )- nice level site and large. Site #2 was a bit smaller but more secluded. Site #3 was large but wasn't as level (though there was WAY more water access- 3 sides of water views!)   Walk to the sites was not bad at all. 

I would highly recommend these 3 campsites!  We saw the rest of the campground and it looked pretty standard, but these sites are a gem.  Showers are at the main campground, but there is a pit toilet and water access  just across the bridge near the parking area. 

The park/area is really nice too!  The park has a beach, small playground area, a bike trail, and some hiking areas.  Nice lake to canoe or kayak on as well. Plus the nature center has programs too!  The stream had turtles, crayfish, and frogs to check out as well :) 

*check out the Green Circle trail and the Stevens Point Sculpture Garden if you wanna get out of the park :)

Nice campground. hiking, fishing, bike trails. Tent sites 19.00 per night electric sites 25.00 no full Hookup.

we stayed here for 30 days , this campground has full hookups, a laundry , shower house, bathrooms, a restaurant/bar, fire rings , and picnic tables. Sites are a responsible size. Generally very quiet , except for holiday weekends, lots of seasonal sites. Folks are very friendly! we would say again!

We were just there. It’s amazing. Great Lake floats to play on. Nice bar. Tons of carts to rent. Big pull through sites. Full hookup. Bar at the beach. Serves great food.

This park has a lot to offer.

Pros:

- Most of the sites were relatively large. We had 3 tents and 2 cars on our site and it wasn't a problem.

- The lake/beach access is a nice bonus.

- Newer shower house and bathrooms, as well as vault toilets

- Decent trails.

- No apparent highway noise.

Cons:

- Despite the large campsites, it felt very "car campery" to me.  The sites I observed didn't have much in the way of tree canopy, so it feels very open.  

- Lots of campground noise and not secluded.    

So, despite Buckhorn being well-appointed, it just wasn't really the campground for me.  I prefer a more rustic and woodsy atmosphere and this was not it.  I think it is likely better suited for campers/trailers than tents.

Note: I have not camped here yet, but I will be in the summer at the tent sites. 

I have been going to this campground for years, walking around, going to the beaches, launching the family pontoon and fishing in Lake Petenwell. Everyone is always so friendly upon arrival. All of the tent sites are right on the edge, it is the best view of the lake. Other RV spots are partially shaded or full sun depending on the location. 

I have US Cellular, it does work excellent in the area, but is very spotty lakeside. I am not sure what other providers are like. 

There are two other camping areas that also are apart of this park. The second one is down the road a little and is west to the main grounds. It has been there for a while and is a spectacular place for sunsets! The park also just added a third campground right across the street as another option for additional camping. This one is atv/utv friendly where if you are on the trails you can drive right in that area. One thing to note is that they are not allowed in the main campground. There is a small atv entrance about 200ft passed the car entrance where you will need to check in. 

There is a pretty nice beach to relax on, the lake is a little green and mucky sometimes- but hey its a lake! There are playgrounds for the kids to let the energy out and plenty of activities to do in the area.

Overall, I would highly recommend this campground!

My girlfriend and I have visited here and stayed here a few times they have many campsites for all types they have a separate campsite just for the RVs they have the main camp area where if you like to be around people you can and then they have the new expansion where it is more excluded they have and continue to make upgrades to the campground such as more electric and water at all their sites they also have put in new bathrooms and shower houses around their campground if you have any questions you should see Lisa in the office she is great

We came to petenwell park in just 2024. Very nice place and will be back again. Staff that we did talk to were friendly and helpful. If you want to bring a boat you can there is a landing in the park. Lots of places to park is your want wooded of water there here. Only downfall is there is no sewer hook ups.

Beautiful, friendly campground. Swimming area, waterfall, steam, fishing. This camp has it all. Some season campers, some overnights.

We got a seasonal site and love it! The campground is well maintained and the service is fabulous. Love the pool and lake with inflatables. Great bar too!! Highly recommend.

We reserved spot 16 knowing it had lake access (not all spots do)... the park is fairly crowded with lots of seasonal campers... but it’s clean, the main bath house is nice and the playground is large. Kids are having a great adventure!
