Meh

So, like other reviewers, I’ll warn you that the park itself is brutally buggy, but you’re in the woods on a peninsula. It’s to be expected, so I don’t hold that against the campground.

This is a typical WI state park campground. The sites are spacious and very wooded. Amenities are few. If you need to fill your water tank, be advised the water and the dump station are poorly marked and positioned so that if you need to fill your water on arrival, you have to enter the park gate, turn around, fill it, leave the park, and turn around to come back in. It’s an awful design.

The bathroom buildings look newish and were fine, so I don’t understand why the showers were so awful. Full of mold/mildew, and the shower itself is line trying to wash your hair under a leaky gutter during a strong drizzle. I even saw park employees come service the bathrooms, yet the showers remained gross.

It’s okay for a layover type stay. I can’t imagine staying there for more than a long weekend and I wouldn’t go out of my way to go back. WI state parks have significantly better offerings than this one.
