It’s Ok but not a destination
This is a fine spot if you are passing through and I imagine if you live in Madison area this is a place you come for day activities.
The camp ground was quiet after it closed but lots of transient traffic both in cars, bikes and walking.
Appears to be some folks using the facilities that are not campers.
I am sure none of this matters if you have a travel companion or more but for a single woman this is all a bit disconcerting.
So for single women warning that you may feel uncomfortable here.
Site 3 is close to restrooms and showers. Very level and had a picnic table. I did not notice a fire pit as I was not using one.
Just okay
Sites are very close together.
Great location, great host!
This is a small campground very clise to downtown Madison. There are many paths, one is a paved path leading into town which could be biked. The area around the camp is lovely and peaceful. The rv sites are small and as others have noted have zero privacy. We came to sightsee, so no problems there. We had site 2, which is level and there is a picnic table and fire ring. The bathrooms/showers are nice, there is water and a dump station. The host we had is excellent. The camp was very quiet at night. We would definitely stay again.
