Morgan Lake Campground And Group Site

Morgan Lake Campground, near Eagle River, Wisconsin, is a laid-back spot that offers a taste of the North Woods with its lakeside sites and natural beauty. The campground is spread out along the lake, providing a nice mix of space and scenery, perfect for those who enjoy a bit of nature without straying too far from civilization.

This place is great for group gatherings, with a designated site that can accommodate RVs and tents, making it a popular choice for family and friends looking to have some fun together. Visitors have mentioned that the campground is ideal for ATV trail riding and boating, with easy access to nearby trails and the water. One camper noted, “With sites right next to the lake, you’re sure to enjoy some of Wisconsin’s beautiful north woods.”

While the sites are close together, which some found a bit cramped, the overall vibe is friendly and welcoming. Facilities include vault toilets and drinking water, so you won’t be completely roughing it. Just keep in mind that the campground can get lively, especially when groups gather, so if you’re after peace and quiet, you might want to plan accordingly.

If you’re up for a little adventure, the gravel roads leading to the campground add to the rustic charm, but watch out for logging trucks along the way. Whether you’re casting a line, roasting marshmallows, or just soaking in the scenery, Morgan Lake Campground has a little something for everyone.

Small spot with a group site

4+ miles of good gravel roads to arrive at the campground. We passed more atv’s than cars. Keep an eye out for the logging trucks - we passed one on a switchback section. 

The group site is to the right. It was filled with maybe 10 vehicles and it looked like a fun family or friends adventure was happening. It was a bit loud. 

The campground is back to the left. It’s spread out along the lake. The sites have some brush separation and are a good size. Vault toilets and water are available too. This is a good spot for atv trail riding or boating. There is a trail a short distance away but with all the traffic we didn’t want to venture out and walk on the roads.

Decent

Spots are very close to each other and not secluded. Trails from the campground to the beach and fishing are were nice. Unfortunately when we went a group of drunk kids came and picked the spot next to us and were very loud and wandered through our spot looking for wood and the trail.

No Privacy

If you like a private, quiet campground this is not for you. Extremely small sites with very little foliage to provide privacy. We could easily carry on a conversation with surrounding sites. However if you're looking for a group site they do have a nice one that can accommodates a Rv and tents. It is located on Morgan lake with non-motorized boating. The approximate 4 mile ride in to campsites is gravel. Sadly we would not go back here.
