    Copper Falls State Park Campground

    Waterfalls and great sites

    This campground has well spaced sites with electric.   There are two campgrounds, north and south.   The north has water spigots to fill your RV or water bottles and two toilet buildings.   The south has a dump station and water fill.

    There is a playground, ballfield, concession stand and lots of picnic areas.   

    The sites are tucked in the trees for privacy and all have a picnic table and fire ring.   There is also a lake and kayaks available to rent.  There  is a town less than 5 miles away and you can find groceries and gas.

    Roam Base Camp

    Rustic camping in the middle of Seeley Pass

    Rustic campsites with easy access to the Seeley Pass trail candy. Lots of mosquitoes- so many it was hard to be outside and enjoy a fire at all, but also an untypical rainy weekend. Very quiet area in the middle of the Northwoods. Small sites with long grass around all the sides, which makes for a fair amount of ticks. If trail access was all we wanted, I’d give it 5 stars. On a rainy weekend, it wasn’t ideal. Must pay for showers.

    Lake Chippewa Campground

    Still One of Our Favs

    As we arrived on a Saturday around 1:45 PM, there was quite the line of RVs checking in as most people come in for a week on Saturdays. As we have been here multiple times, we knew not to line up down the narrow road shoot that’s adjacent to the lodge where you check in but stay on the main road. They had plenty of staff on duty, so check-in was fairly quick, and we headed to site 457, which was an easy back-in with FHUs. We were pleasantly surprised we didn’t get site 456 right on the road. When we make a reservation for this campground(CG), you can only pick an area, not a specific site, for most of the sites. This was the first time we’d stayed in this area of mixed short-term and seasonal sites. The FHU facilities were placed in the middle of the gravel-grass site with a picnic table and fire pit. We were able to put out our back patio and have plenty of space to park our F450. There are a lot of mature trees in this park, so satellite is going to be iffy depending on the site. We were able to get an okay shot to the north for Starlink but no chance for the southern sky. You can opt to pay for the park Wi-Fi. The water pressure is good, and we had two bars on Verizon. The staff at the lodge/office is top-notch. We found out that this year’s“watch out” was kids riding electric bikes full out versus underage golf cart drivers of last year, so“watch out” in either case. The CG has been trying to police the lack of parental oversight, but this first-rate CG attacks a lot of families. Though there’s no formal dog park, there are plenty of areas to walk your dog, including the trail up and around the newer primitive camping area. Lake Chip is one of our favs, and we will continue to return.

    Lake Chippewa Campground

    Lake Chip Continues to Please

    Our RV GPS wanted to take us through Hayward city central to the campground (CG), which was fine. However, as this was our fourth time staying at Lake Chippewa Campground, we stayed on Hwy 77 past the Walmart to hook up on Hwy 63 at the casino to avoid traffic and stoplights in Hayward. We arrived with no issues and during check-in we were delighted to find out we had other site options than the pull throughs for our 12 night stay. We had changed our reservations to an earlier date, and the only open sites at the time were pull throughs, which are not bad. However, there are much better sites in this CG. We were provided a map of available sites and a golf cart to check out sites. As we know this CG well, it was a no brainer for us to chose back-in site 460 with FHUs. The regulars who normally stay in this site had gotten an opening in one of the CG's permanent site areas. We happily proceeded to our site and had no problems backing in. The hook ups are in the middle of this long pad. Water pressure was good at about 50 psi. We did not opt for their Wifi, which you have pay for and later found out it doesn't work in this area anyway. We got 1 bar on Verizon and the signal was basically useless. There are a lot of mature trees in this CG and in this site in particular. We put our Starlink on the roof and we were able to get a usable signal. We would rather have a nice site with privacy than wifi or a phone signal. This site sits well off the road and has a large back yard area. Lake Chip is a large private CG but has a state park feel. They have lots of amenities such site side trash pickup, laundry, boat/kayak rentals, golf cart rentals, propane, and the list goes on. Eat at Powell’s on Round Lake about 15 minutes away on Co Hwy C towards Hayward. Good food and service.

    Hayward KOA

    Fun Filled KOA

    We have been coming to this KOA for years. Always a fun time for the whole family. Great place to let the kids go run off and play while the parents relax under the awning while grilling. Large 9ft heated pool, mini golf, large playground, horse shoes, volleyball, nice size water slide, covered stage for music, ice cream shop, huge jump pillow, and much more. Large selection of different campsites from tents to cabins to Rv site of all types (pull throughs, back in, no hook ups to full hook ups). Come have a great time!

    Fall Colors!

    Really enjoyed this place! It’s connected to miles of trails for multiple uses like mountain biking, hiking, running, snow shoeing, cross country skiing, and winter fat biking. Staff is very polite and helpful. Cabins are a nice size for parties of 6, and sites are somewhat private. Rustic campground with flush toilet, and personal enclosed shower rooms. Sauna was a nice option after a day on the trails. Will definitely be returning!

    Copper Falls State Park Campground

    For those looking for some magic in the North Woods…

    This was our first time camping at Copper Falls, we had previously visited for a day trip, completely taken, we knew we needed to return. The Southern campground doesn’t have any electric and mostly for tent campers, there were still some trailers there. We were in the first loop with woods and some hills behind us, wonderful except for the night there was an intense storm. There was really no place to put our tent that wouldn’t have had some water run off. That’s really the only negative thing. The sites themselves are gorgeously wooded and nice sized. Copper Falls is stunningly beautiful and much of the infrastructure was designed by the CCC. The ranger presence is strong which meant quiet hours were enforced. The facilities were clean and kept that way. They really have something special there and it is clear that they know it with the pride and care used to operate this park. Grab an ice cream sandwich from the concession they are locally made and out of this world!

    Copper Falls State Park Campground

    South Campground- Beautiful

    Beautiful state park. Good hiking, biking & ski trails throughout. Stayed here in late October- shower house closed for season. This review is for the south campground- no connections. Lots of trees. Spacing between sites are good, providing a little bit of privacy. Good well water. Vault toilets are somewhat clean. Campsites very clean. Paved road through campground; gravel site driveways. Friendly & helpful camp host & park ranger. 2 bars T-Mobile. Would stay here again.

    Copper Falls State Park Campground

    This is Wisconsin?

    Wow, Copper Falls has quickly jumped to my number one state park experience in Wisconsin. I’ve lived in Wisconsin my whole life and did not expect such beauty in this northern part of the state.

    We decided to camp at a walk in site (#49) and this site will absolutely be our preferred site for future bookings at Copper Falls. The walk in sites are obviously more secluded but the size and views at our site were amazing! Additionally, #49 is the first of the walk-in sites and is closest to the small parking lot and bathrooms at the bottom of the hill. The staff also provided carts for you to haul wood or belongings up to your site.

    The hiking trails were breathtaking! The views of the waterfalls were amazing and again, unexpected for Wisconsin. The trails themselves were well maintained with fencing/handrails lining the cliffs and rock paths. Super easy hike but there are lots of stairs!

    Needless to say, we will be back!


Guide to Winter

Cabin camping near Winter, Wisconsin offers rustic accommodations within the northern woods region at elevations ranging from 1,200 to 1,500 feet. The area experiences distinct seasons with winter temperatures often dropping below 0°F and summer days typically reaching 75-85°F. Cabins provide shelter from the region's notorious mosquito population during peak summer months while maintaining access to surrounding lakes and forest trails.

What to do

Waterfall touring: 15-minute drive from Winter to Copper Falls State Park Campground where multiple cascades await. "If you like waterfalls, then this is the area that you want to visit. You can hike here and see 3 different waterfalls or take a short drive to numerous others in the area," notes Jeanne M. The park features the North Country Scenic Trail to Red Granite Falls.

River tubing: Seasonal activity available through Hayward KOA with shuttle service. "The pool was nice and the waterslide was fun but the river tubing was the best. They shuttle you out and pick you up," reports Melissa H. The tubing runs typically operate during summer months when water levels are appropriate.

Fishing on Lost Land Lake: Access directly from Reel Livin Resort and Campground with boat and pontoon rentals. "Lost Land Lake offers good fishing and boating. Kevin and Elise were welcoming and even provided parts to fix a major RV plumbing issue," shares Lynn M. The lake spans approximately 1,300 acres with walleye, northern pike, and panfish.

What campers like

Wooded privacy at variable levels: Sites at Wildwood Haven Resort and Campground offer diverse settings. "If I didn't care about being near the lake, I would look at the new sites they put in the wooded area. They were a little more 'remote'," explains Adam A. The campground features both lakeside and forest options.

Quiet evenings for stargazing: Low light pollution at several locations enhances night sky visibility. "Since this is further from town, it is very dark here and great for star gazing," notes Adam A. about Wildwood Haven. Jim W. adds, "Within an hour we went from noisy happy kids to hearing a loon somewhere out on the lake. The quiet peaceful evenings that followed were exactly what we were looking for."

Lake access and beaches: Many cabin rentals provide direct water access for swimming and boating. At Lake Chippewa Campground, "They have lots of amenities such site side trash pickup, boat/kayak rentals, golf cart rentals, propane, and the list goes on," according to MickandKarla W. Lindsay T. notes, "The group sites with water access and full hook-ups can't be beat."

What you should know

Limited cell service: Connectivity varies significantly between campgrounds. "We did not opt for their Wifi, which you have pay for and later found out it doesn't work in this area anyway. We got 1 bar on Verizon and the signal was basically useless," reports MickandKarla W. about Lake Chippewa Campground. Many cabin renters bring satellite internet devices for remote work needs.

Reservation timing requirements: Booking windows open months in advance with specific dates. "They start their booking for the year on January 1st. We called all day long (4500 times not kidding) and finally got a spot," shares Melissa H. about Lake Chippewa Campground.

Winter cabin demand: Cold weather accommodations book quickly. Kim H. notes about Roam Base Camp, "Cabins are unique and one of a kind and will be a fun place during the winter to stay!" Winter activities include cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and fat tire biking on nearby trails.

Tips for camping with families

Adventure-oriented facilities: Facilities geared toward active families provide structured recreation. "Awesome place to stay with family! Campground was kept very clean, even though it is an older campground. Only complaint would be that sites are close together!" advises Anna about Hayward KOA. Lynn N. adds, "Campground is very clean, the staff is super friendly, and there are lots of things to do! Pool, waterslide, mini golf, playgrounds and so much more!"

Playground access considerations: Multiple locations offer play equipment with different age appropriateness. "We were fortunate to experience this campground in two very different situations...a large family gathering covering three campsites with eight to ten cousins all enjoying the playground and waterfront. They kids really seemed to be enjoying themselves and the parents could relax and let them play," observes Jim W. about Wildwood Haven.

Insect preparation essential: Pack appropriate repellents for mosquito and tick protection. "Lots of mosquitoes- so many it was hard to be outside and enjoy a fire at all, but also an untypical rainy weekend," warns Kim H. about Roam Base Camp. "Small sites with long grass around all the sides, which makes for a fair amount of ticks."

Tips from RVers

Tree clearance challenges: Large rigs face navigation difficulties at some locations. "Love all this campsite has to offer with amenities! Beautiful area as well. But there are alot of trees that make it very challenging for larger rigs. There are a handful of sites that would be easy to access, I recommend calling first. We have a 43ft 5th wheel," advises Sheila H. about Hayward KOA.

Dump station protocols: Facility maintenance varies between campgrounds. "Clean, efficient, groomed, with a new owner who is enthusiastic and really working hard to provide a great customer service experience. When, if ever, have you been to a campground that disinfects the dump station between uses? Yep, this one does," reports Jim W. about Wildwood Haven.

Site positioning considerations: RV site layouts affect comfort and usability. "We did not back in as far into the site as we would have liked due to overhead tree branches. Due to the rig's position on the site, we needed about 20' of sewer hose plus the connection is not threaded and sits up about 6 inches making it tough to dump," explains MickandKarla W. about Lake Chippewa Campground.
