Most parks maintain seasonal operations, typically closing between mid-October and mid-April due to Wisconsin winters. Dump stations are available at Neshonoc Lakeside, Pettibone Resort, and Nelson's Landing RV Park in nearby Nelson. Cell service varies throughout the region, with AT&T generally providing better coverage than Verizon according to visitor reports. Pet-friendly policies are common at most RV parks, though some maintain restrictions on certain breeds or require leashes. Shower facilities range from basic to surprisingly upscale, with Nelson's Landing receiving particular praise for their private bathroom/shower rooms with full locking doors. According to one visitor, the bathrooms at Nelson's Landing are "brand new and pristinely clean: white subway tile, white walls, white fixtures. Great water pressure and temperature."

    Neshonoc Lakeside

    Old school camping fun

    This is a huge campground. It feels like a true old-school “campground” not an rv resort or even an RV park. The kind of campground you loved as a kid. It is hilly with mature trees, although not every site has shade. It is very family friendly. There are RV sites, cabins, tent sites and park models. A lot of long term people live here. The sites are grassy or gravel and are very roomy and level. Lots of activities for the kids…basketball, horseshoes, volleyball, sizeable pool, and playground. This place is older but very clean. Very friendly staff. The lake is absolutely stunning. Snag a spot with a lake view if you can! (See map pic). 1-2 bars on AT+T.

    Great value as a TT member

    This campground came to us through Thousand Trails Collection.  At first we only had a W/E site and later was able to move to a full hook up site.  All sites has a gravel pad with a grass yard, fire ring, and picnic table.  The fire rings are sunk completely into the ground for some reason.  The lots were spacious and the property offered a large pool, hot tub, restrooms, showers, laundry room, fishing and canoeing.  This is a pet friendly park.

    Minneiska Campground — Whitewater State Park

    Small and quaint with plenty of space

    This campground is small and quaint...plenty of space without being too close to your neighbors.  Super easy to social distance here.

    We visited in winter (February) and while there was snow on the ground, the spaces were kept plowed with easy access to the electric boxes.  We were in a teardrop trailer.  Plenty of space for the car and the teardrop in space #202, but all spaces that were plowed had plenty of room to pull in.  Some were even "pull through" which would be extra nice if you wanted it (either big rig type RV or pull behind).

    As with State Parks in MN, it's best to make the reservation online, especially with office staff being spotty these days. Price is $35 for the space/night with electric, and this time of year, there are no other options besides electric spaces. The bonus of making "day of" reservations means there is no extra service fee.  But waiting that "long" to make the reservation also means there are no refunds if you can't get there. You are far better off as a "no show" than "cancelling", since there is actually a cancellation fee on top of losing your nightly rate if you actually "cancel".

    The campground has far more spaces than you can reserve this time of year (typical of "winter" camps at State Parks in MN). But the loop that had the openings was super easy.  Just literally a loop around one side of the camp with a vault toilet on one side that was super easy to get to from anywhere you were plugged in.  It was fairly clean (dirty floor understandable this time of year due to wet boots and slush).

    I was surprised at the nature of the young trees.  Lots of them, but all very small.  That said, in the winter this is more obvious due to lack of leaves, but in summer, I suspect it's lovely. Still, there are plenty of them and with the huge spaces between sites, even without leaves it wasn't an issue. I don't think there are any trees big enough to hammock in.

    The entrance to the campground is literally right inside the park.  Across from the visitor center, so you can't miss it. And although it was close to the road, very little road noise.  The only noises we were actually aware of were natural ones...some cows in the distance, lots of birds and at night, Barred Owls and a few coyotes.  All welcome noises for us!

    This time of year, water is not on in the campground, but there is a spigot right across the road at the visitor center that is on (easy 2 min walk). They also have firewood for sale with an "honor" box, but the bundles the day were were there were $6 and the small bundle was basically small kindling. Not idea for a winter fire.

    All spaces had a nice picnic table and fire ring. We had to "dig" to ours with a small snow shovel in the car, but it wasn't an issue.

    **NOTE:  You do need a MN state park sticker or day pass to stay at the campground**

    Russell Memorial Park

    Beautiful lake/creek front

    The camp has a lot of long term sites on the waterfront so getting on one usually gets you into spring and camping. The waterfront has mostly electric only sites and run very close to size. We have a 28 5th wheel and we're snug. Site said 25 ft but the picture had a 5'er on it so we booked it. The back sites are ATV/UTV site. They have good access to the trails. They seem a bit bigger. I've seen a few toy haulers back there. There are a few full hookup in the center of the campground but not many. The shower and restrooms were clean. There are larger sites just not all waterfront. We like to travel too much to have a permanent site yet, so we try to come spring and fall here

    Eagle Cliff Campground and Lodging

    River Camping

    Overall great experience! Located on the Root River. Cliff View has very clean bath houses. Lots of sites to choose from. 50 amp service, sewer hook up and of course water. If your close enough to the office wifi available. Some sites are tight for large motor homes, 5th wheelers and tavel trailer. If your a bicyclist, campgrounds on great paved trail. They like their grass, no rugs or carpet on the grass. I take this as a positive. Dogs n cats are welcome. Lots of seasonal sites. Camping during the week is quite!

    Pettibone Resort

    Nice park on Miss River in LaCrosse

    Pettibone is a nice park on an island in the Mississippi River in LaCrosse. Being from Louisiana it was cool to camp right beside the Mississippi River since we have levees between us and the river. We stayed one night on our way to Minnesota. There is plenty of shade. The park streets are asphalt with two concrete strips for your tires in the sites. The park was quiet except when someone decided to shoot fireworks between 10-11 pm. A little pricey at$54 considering there were no sewer hookups. 

    Stayed in pull-through campsite#308 which was shady. It was a grass site with two concrete strips for my TT tires. There was more than enough parking for my TT and truck and grass on either side. The site included: picnic table on a concrete pad. Utilities were located in the rear. 20A/30A electric and water. Site was a little unlevel. Neighbors are close. 

    AT&T had 2-3 bars of LTE and Verizon 1 bars of LTE service. AT&T Speedtest: 146 Mbps down, 4.8 Mbps up. Verizon Speedtest: 016 Mbps down, 0.14 Mbps up. Free WiFi. 

    Would stay here again. We camped at Pettibone Resort in a Travel Trailer.

    Maple Springs Campground

    Eden

    We stayed here for the month of august, and this place is awesome! Beautiful spaces of various size, a river runs next to it and they have duck races. Dog park, small general store, backs up to a national park, close to town, immaculately maintained, volley ball court, lots of shade trees, easy access, and Andy(owner/operator) is the nicest person you’ll ever want to meet. For those so inclined there’s church service on Sunday in an old (cool looking!) barn! Fire pits at every spot. There is WiFi there, but little to no phone service unless you have a cell booster. 5/5 will definitely be back!

    Nelson's Landing RV Park

    Clean & tidy RV campground

    Easy pull-through and back-in sites. We easily backed in to our site. There was a large open grassy area behind us that our two dogs enjoyed. Brand new fire rings/pits. Beautiful view of the bluffs. Walking distance to several restaurants. Don't miss the Nelson Creamery. Housed in an old historic building, I was expecting just an average ice cream/Wisconsin cheese store, but it was really lovely inside and it reminded me of something in France. There is a formal dining room area, wine cellar, and casual outdoor seating on a patio under vine covered canopy. Soups, sandwiches, pizzas, beer and wine available.

    We only stayed for 2 nights, but the best part was the bathroom/shower house! There were 3-4 private shower/toilet/sink rooms with full locking doors. Everything is brand new and pristinely clean: white subway tile, white walls, white fixtures. Great water pressure and temperature. It reminded me of a fancy athletic club like Lifetime Fitness! 

    There is also a laundry facility in the building (again, everything new and clean).


Guide to Trempealeau

Camping options near Trempealeau, Wisconsin extend beyond traditional RV parks to include scenic areas along the Mississippi River's Pool 6, which maintains a water elevation of 645 feet above sea level. The Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge borders much of the shoreline in this region, creating unique opportunities for wildlife viewing. Summer temperatures typically range from 75-85°F, with higher humidity levels near the water.

What to do

Water recreation on the Mississippi: Lake Neshonoc in West Salem offers excellent kayaking opportunities on its 600-acre lake. "Great place to go kayak, decent place to fish, and good access to bike trail. The lake is about 600 acres in size and about 11 feet deep at the deepest point. Lake Sturgeon, Bass, Muskie, Pike, Walleye, and Bluegill can be caught at this location," notes a visitor to Neshonoc Lakeside.

Biking on regional trails: Campers staying at Peterson City RV Park have direct access to the Root River bike trail. "The campground is on the Root River bike trail which is beautiful, shaded, and paved," according to a reviewer. The trail provides a scenic route through the countryside with minimal elevation changes, making it suitable for casual cyclists.

Exploring small towns: Take walking tours through historic river towns like Peterson, Minnesota. "It was great fun for me to take a morning and/or evening walk around Peterson, a lovely quintessential midwest town, with a feed mill, some lodging, a small cafe, Legion bar, etc. Lots of signage around town about history," shares a visitor to Peterson City RV Park.

What campers like

Clean, well-maintained facilities: Many campgrounds in the Trempealeau region receive high marks for cleanliness. At Nelson's Landing RV Park, campers appreciate the shower facilities: "The best part was the bathroom/shower house! There were 3-4 private shower/toilet/sink rooms with full locking doors. Everything is brand new and pristinely clean: white subway tile, white walls, white fixtures. Great water pressure and temperature."

Swimming options beyond the river: Stoney Creek RV Resort offers multiple swimming options for families. "There is a pool, skate park, sand volleyball, pond and concessions. The roads were perfect for our kids bikes," notes one reviewer. The pool areas tend to be less crowded on weekdays and during morning hours.

Spacious camping sites: Unlike some crowded rv parks in Trempealeau, Wisconsin and surrounding areas, Stoney Creek provides generously sized sites. "The sites are huge almost state park like with ample room for your kids to play. Lots of activities on the weekend on top of the bounce pillow, pool, lagoon, skate park, volleyball, and basketball court," according to a Stoney Creek RV Resort visitor.

What you should know

Seasonal operations: Most Trempealeau area campgrounds close during winter months. Neshonoc Lakeside operates from April 15 to October 15, and others follow similar schedules. Some campgrounds like Stoney Creek RV Resort often offer discounted rates during shoulder seasons.

Train noise: Railroad tracks run along the Mississippi River, affecting campgrounds in river towns. At Pettibone Resort, campers note: "The park was quiet except when someone decided to shoot fireworks between 10-11 pm." Train schedules vary but typically include overnight passages.

Varying campground atmospheres: Some campgrounds cater to different camping styles. "This campground is more for motorhomes/rvs and the 'glamper' types. Not ideal for tent campers," notes a Neshonoc Lakeside visitor. Research campground reviews to find the right fit for your preferred camping style.

Tips for camping with families

Activity planning for kids: Whiskey Creek Family RV Park offers numerous family-oriented amenities. "They have a beautiful white sand beach around a 1-acre swim pond. The water was the color of the Caribbean with these huge blow-up toys and slides in the middle. Kids loved it," shares a visitor to Whiskey Creek Family RV Park.

Scheduled events and themes: Many campgrounds host regular activities for children. "Stoney Creek is a fun place to bring the whole family. It might be a perfect place to bring a first-time camper to ease them into the experience," according to a visitor. These events typically occur on weekends and major holidays.

Rental options for non-campers: Several campgrounds offer cabin rentals for those without camping equipment. "This is an amazing place for families to spend time camping. There are even cabins for your non-camping family and friends," notes a Stoney Creek visitor. Cabins typically cost 50-100% more than RV sites but provide protection from weather.

Tips from RVers

Site selection considerations: At Pettibone Resort, RV spots vary in quality and access. "The park streets are asphalt with two concrete strips for your tires in the sites. Site was a little unlevel. Neighbors are close," notes one RVer. Call ahead to request specific site types if you have a preference for shade, privacy, or water views.

Cell service information: Coverage varies significantly throughout the region. At Camp Everyday Winona, located across the river from Trempealeau, campers find reliable connectivity for remote work. The campground offers 78 sites with varying levels of hookups and amenities.

Hookup details: Many Trempealeau area rv parks offer full-service sites, but configurations vary. At Neshonoc Lakeside, "All sites has a gravel pad with a grass yard, fire ring, and picnic table. The fire rings are sunk completely into the ground for some reason." Bring leveling blocks as many sites require minor adjustments.
