Outdoor activities galore!

Vet's Park has direct access to the La Crosse Great River Trail where you can connect onto Elroy/Sparta Trail to the east and it directly to La Crosse Great River Trail to the northwest. You can also take the bike trail along the highway into town. It’s a great place to stop and camp while biking! 

This park has a lot to offer and is relatively large in size. Vet’s Park has baseball fields, playgrounds, a couple of group shelters, volleyball courts, and tons of space for activities. Lots of group events going on here so this place is usually pretty busy on weekends. It does quiet down at night. In comparison to the place up the road by Lake Neshonoc, this place is quiet… Not a lot of bells and whistles but peaceful. Each campsite has a fire pit, picnic table and tent pad. You can also find hot showers, restrooms with flush toilets, river access (to kayak!), shuffleboard, horseshoes, drinking water, and a camp store. Watch for down trees when kayaking!

When entering from the highway you will pass some fishing ponds and the La Crosse River (which wraps around the campground). If you're into fishing, try checking out the entrance of La Crosse River Trail. It’s a little bit of a walk but there’s some great fishing right off the “puppy trail” near the river. Enjoy!

Over the bridge and a wonderful surprise awaits

This place was wonderful. I’m a local who actually comes here often. My kid loves all the playgrounds. I love the fact that I can take her hiking here and not have to worry. The plains are a nice change to bluff hiking. The slow peaceful kayaking almost feels like time stops for a moment and you can actually reconnect with nature. I think whether you stop with your family for a day or stay a week you will not be disappointed. The park was very clean well-kept and organized. Staff members and all other campers were friendly and I felt like they were truly happy to be there.

Great location

Family camping on the banks of the La Crosse River with shaded grassy sites, directly on State Bike Trail, and easily accessible from I-90.

Veterans Memorial Campground is a very peaceful campground. Lots of friendly people, nice hiking, and great fishing. Plenty of space!
