$67 after tax for primitive. Overpriced. Nice place though. Easy to get in. Great for kids, but those us passing through…don’t.
Best Cabin Camping in Wisconsin
Wisconsin state parks and private campgrounds offer diverse cabin lodging across the state. High Cliff State Park Campground near Sherwood and Copper Falls State Park Campground in Mellen feature cabins with basic furnishings, including beds, tables, and electricity. Most cabins include heating for colder months but may lack air conditioning during summer. "This was a great destination RV park if you are looking for a family getaway or just a quiet trip for two," noted one visitor about Whiskey Creek Family RV Park. Bathrooms with showers and flush toilets are typically located in central facilities rather than inside individual cabins.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Several Wisconsin KOA locations, including Wisconsin Dells KOA and Hayward KOA, offer furnished cabin rentals with varying amenities. Wagon Trail Campground in Ellison Bay provides cabin accommodations alongside other lodging options. According to one camper, "The park models are very clean, clean rentals start at $125 to $200." Most cabin facilities require advance reservations, particularly during summer months when availability becomes limited. Pet policies vary by location, with some cabins allowing dogs for an additional fee while others prohibit pets entirely.
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities range from basic countertops with microwaves to full kitchenettes with refrigerators, stovetops, and basic cookware. Firewood is available for purchase at most campgrounds, including Kettle Moraine State Forest-Southern Unit and Potawatomi State Park, for outdoor cooking and campfires. On-site camp stores at locations like Apostle Islands Area RV Park and Camping offer basic provisions, though selection is typically limited. Visitors planning extended stays should bring groceries from larger towns before arrival at more remote cabin locations.

It’s a great place to stay they have lots of activities for the kids, it helps that they are year around and their prices aren’t bad.

GuidePoint Beach State Forest
Staying at the Point Beach State Forest campground. Being late in the season and not a weekend, we stayed in site A. This is the only lettered site, which is slightly confusing, but a very nice spot along the beach. From this site you have to walk up and down the large dune between the site and the beach. The dune is about 20 ft tall and does require some physical effort to get over. The site was pretty level and has decent foliage between it and the adjacent sites. There are lots of walking trails in the area and plenty of beautiful sandy beach to walk along. There is only a single dump station, and the queue was quite long on Sunday when we arrived. Check-in was at 3 PM and they enforced that strictly, at least for us. All sites appeared to be 30 amp service. This site is not good for Starlink. Unless you have a long enough cable to get it up on dune. The water and showers were shut off as of Oct 15th according to the signs. This is a very nice state forest campground we would recommend! There appear to be a few sites that stay open year round, but most close on 10/28. AT&T signal was typically 1-bar or no-signal.

Clean, it has a park for children, clean bathrooms, close to everything, reasonable price. I called last minute on Saturday and they got me a spot right away. I suppose to check out at noon Sunday but they allow us to stay longer with no extra charge so the kids can still playing during the day. (No every rv park allow that) so thank you guys 👌
Cindy S.TravelerBreezy Hill Campground
A year round place
Very friendly and very clean. 1 swimming pond 2 fishing ponds volleyball courts and 2 off leash dog areas. Showers are free and they have a huge kid play area along with a seasonal swimming pool and hot tub.
Cheryl S.TravelerArbor Vitae Campground
Boating and Fishing campground
We camped with our camper and boat. It was very nice to keep our boat at the dock. There is a small swimming area with a pier. The campground doesn’t have many amenities but the staff was very helpful. We loved hiking in the campground and adjacent and nearby state forest hiking trails. Beautiful lake. The north side of the lake is Untouched state forest. The campground is close to many sightseeing spots such as museums and shops.

Camping alone , mid September
I really like this campground, I feel safe as a single person camping with my pups here. The owners are super friendly and the price is very reasonable. There are mostly seasonal here which helps cut back the noise and the crowds.

Beautiful, clean, fun
I was a little skeptical after a negative review about the regular residents, so I watched for that dynamic. We were camping with another family so we had 8 kids between the two of us and I was worried all those kiddos would upset people. Quite the opposite experience from that review and it motivated me to leave this one to help provide a good picture. I have nothing bad to say about our camping experience. We did go a little out of season (September 12) so a lot of the campsites were empty. Most their sites are flat, and clean. The grass was well mowed and maintained. They had activities for the kids (Halloween). People that drove by were friendly and smiling, and waiving. We had people drop off candy for the kids asking parents first. We had people offer basketballs for our kids to use while they were away from their site. Me and my friend were about to haul ice bags and wood up a huge hill on foot and someone stopped their golf cart and emptied it of what they were carrying to give us a ride to our campsite. The kids tootled about on their bikes being kids with no negative experiences. There were a couple of kids on motor scooters whose engines were kind of obnoxious but that’s going to happen more and more at campgrounds, and it wasn’t during quiet hours. We had sites atop the “full Lakeview” and it was honestly surprising how beautiful it was up there. I think it can be difficult to get a view when you’re camping but those sites had it. We knew the full lake view sites were open so we took the cheaper ones across from them, but still saw the same view. There was a great amount of space between the sites we used. The only possible critique I might offer is in that specific row there weren’t many trees for shade, but the weather was cooler so it didn’t affect us, but if we went in the summer it might have been more uncomfortable without that natural shade. The bath houses and showers were great!!! I feel like a good bath house can make or break a campsite and we’ve been to some smaller ones that were quite lacking but this one was great. Very clean, not many bugs, spacious, real doors on the shower stalls. We did not arrive in season to utilize the pool area but it looked great from the other side of the gate ;) - the parks were well maintained and the kids loved them. there was a set of stairs that went from up the hill down to the office that looked a little sketchy but they were closed off for use. If you didn’t have a golf cart or couldn’t ride a bike, the trek from where we stayed to the office might be a challenge. Overall we loved it and would definitely consider going again. The sites were a little pricey but had on site sewer hookup which is fantastic.
