Very nice stay

Stayed here for three nights during our Door County Century bike ride trip. The staff was super friendly and made us feel very welcome. The site was very spacious and the campground nice and quiet, clean and well kept. Will definitely be staying here again.

Door county get away

We showed up late Friday due to some issues with our pop up. The lady called and asked when we were arriving that was so nice. The campsites are tightly packed but luckily we got a nice wide open one right next to the perfectly cleaned bathrooms and showers. I loved that they have a social gathering spot with movies and djs. The pool is small but clean they have a nice 1 foot deep separate pool for the little kids. Everyone was pretty much nice we only had one lady come scold us cause our dog slipped out of his harness for a few minutes she was right on top of us lol. It’s located close to downtown sturgeon bay which was nice! We had lunch at Mary’s on the beach and the crabcakes were awesome. Our waitress was too cool and when my fiancé told her my drink had no booze she promptly brought me a new one with a lot of liquor lol. Wood nearby at houses on the side of the road. Would definitely go back!

Nice Place

Nice, quiet campground. Family oriented and right next to a state park for hiking, biking & running. Spacious sites with fire ring & table. Great place to explore the peninsula from.

Tranquil

We have been camping here for a few years now multiple times a year. We love this place. Quiet. Lots to do for kids. Pool, mini golf, game room, tennis courts, soccer, volleyball a rec center with games, TV ect. We love the complete hook ups, no worries about electric, water or sewer. It is alittle more pricy but we will pay more for the amenities. Close to town for whatever you might want to do or explore. We have already booked for next year.

NOT PET FRIENDLY

Tranquil Timbers advertises pet friendly but they ARE NOT pet friendly. If your dog makes any kind of noise whatsoever, they are NOT welcome. Motorcycles and noisy kids however, park approved!

Beautiful!

This campground’s location was great! It was easy to bike into sturgeon bay and awesome to be able to bike in the potowatomi state forest. There are some awesome views at this campground too because it’s close to the bay. A great place to spend a weekend!

Very quiet and peaceful. Family friendly

It has a pool for kids both older and small. It’s very peaceful and quiet. I felt we got a lot of rest at night because it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop most nights and we were afraid to disturb the elderly next to us with permanent site who were extremely territorial of their perimeter. It was a little too uptight and not enough “fun” for kids in general. We made the best out of it and ventured out of the park for fun. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Store is incredibly small and shelves are nearly bare. Staff is really nice and helpful. Pool was clean and well maintained.

Ok campground, pricey, not a ton to do

This is one of those campgrounds you should go to if you have a big group, so you can avoid being bored. There just isn't a lot to do (outside of the fact you are in Door County), plus it is pricey. I'd just assume go to Peninsula State Park instead for a much better camping experience for a small fraction of the price.
