Hattie Sherwood Park

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Sitting directly on the shore of Green Lake in central Wisconsin, Hattie Sherwood Park is a municipally managed campground that runs from May through mid-October. The campground sits up on a hill above the lake, and the internal road is one lane, which reviewers flag as something to account for when maneuvering larger rigs. RVs are limited to 27 feet, and sites include electric, water, and sewer hookups alongside a dump station, though the dump station and potable water fill point require looping back around rather than passing through in sequence.

Water access is a defining feature here. A sand beach and floating dock sit across the highway from the campground, and a small fishing area near the boat launch gives anglers a spot to cast without going far. As Matthew J. notes, there are "smaller fish perfect for younger kids," with additional fishing available further down by the bridge. The campground is self-register on arrival, with a park manager coming through each morning to check in and clean the bathrooms. Cleanliness is consistently mentioned across reviews, though at least one visitor noted the restrooms could have used attention.

The campground sits within the town of Green Lake itself, so supplies are close. Sites are reported as decent-sized, and the area draws a mix of tent campers and trailer rigs. Nearby lodging-style options include McConnell Inn and Bayview Motel & Marina to the south, useful context for groups with mixed accommodation needs. Reservations are available and recommended for holiday weekends, when noise from neighboring sites has been an occasional issue.

Great spot on the lake

Great little campground in town along the lake with water access.

Had some updates this spring to some of the site’s.

The app shows it on the other side of the Hwy but it is in town and along the lake.

Map took us right to it.

Nice campground

We went here for labor day a couple years back. It was a nice clean campground. It doesn't have a full-time attendant. Self register upon arriving. The morning time the park manager comes through and checks in, cleans the bathrooms etc. Its close to the city if you forget something (I mean we all forget something at some point). Across the street is a swimming area. Little beach and floating dock. Has a small fishing area by the boat launch. Pretty weedy and the dock is shared with people coming in or out with their boat. Smaller fish perfect for younger kids. You can fish further down by the bridge as well. Sites seemed to all be decent size. Plenty of 5th wheels or camper trailers. (At the time we had a tent). We did have some loud neighbors from Illinois. They partied until 2 or 3 in the morning. We talked to the park manager in the morning and he was very helpful. He apologized and talked to the group. We didnt have any other issues the rest of the weekend. Running water and showers at the bathrooms. They were cleaned every morning and then checked on at night. Scenery was great, you could walk across the street and watch the sunrise over green lake. We will definitely stop here again.

The good with the bad.

Campground is on Green Lake and the lake is beautiful. Has a nice sand beach swim area. The campground sits up on a hill and the road is one lane. Sites are not level so be prepared. Potable water is in a place where you will have to circle back around after filling tanks. Same goes for dump station. Showers and restroom were okay but could have used a cleaning. All in all not bad will probably go back again.
