Wildwood Outdoor Adventures & Campground

73 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Wildwood Outdoor Adventures and Campground in Eagle River, Wisconsin, offers 73 RV sites and 10 tent sites directly on the Eagle River Chain of 28 Lakes, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 102 feet. Pond water view and premium back-in categories in both full-hookup and water-and-electric versions join boat docks, kayak rentals, and floating boat slips. Seventy-three sites span pond water view back-in 30/50-amp, pond water view back-in 30/50-amp water-and-electric, premium back-in 30/50-amp, and premium back-in 30/50-amp water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 102 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Every category comes in both a full-hookup and a water-and-electric version, which lets you choose the setting and the hookup level independently — a sensible structure. One hundred two feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. Every site gets a fire ring and picnic table. Ten tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and private family shower rooms handle the practical side. Floating boat slips, a full dock, and kayak rentals open the chain for boating, canoeing, and kayaking, with a lake, pond, river, walking trails, biking, a playground, community fire pit, and productive birding filling the rest. The Eagle River Chain is the largest freshwater chain in the world — 28 glacially carved lakes connected end to end across more than 3,000 acres. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.

Hattie Sherwood Campground

19 RV Sites, 12 Tent Sites

Hattie Sherwood Campground in Green Lake, WI, offers 20 RV sites and 12 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites are tiered by service, and the labels tell you exactly what you get: 20-amp sites, 30-amp deluxe, 30-amp deluxe with water, 50-amp premiere, and 50-amp premiere with water. These are partial hookups — electric at every site, water at some, no sewer — so plan on the on-site dump station and check whether your site includes water when you book. Each site has a fire pit and picnic table. A bathhouse with showers, firewood, and recycling are available, and pets are welcome. A boat ramp and boat rentals put guests on the water for fishing, boating, paddling, and paddle boarding, with a beach for swimming, a pond, walking trails, a playground, and biking and birding through the mature hardwoods. Green Lake sits on the shore of Big Green Lake, the deepest inland lake in Wisconsin, in the central part of the state. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Premiere sites with water are the ones to request, and they go first.

Buffalo Lake Camping Resort

47 RV Sites

Buffalo Lake Camping Resort in Montello, WI, offers 47 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 70 feet. The resort publishes four site categories — standard, plus, premium back-in, and premium pull-through — all carrying water, sewer, electric, and cable TV with a fire pit and picnic table; confirm which layout you're booking when you reserve. The resort is rated big rig friendly and takes rigs up to 70 feet. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, a dump station, and cabins cover the rest. The resort sits within city limits, which means services are genuinely close. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, an arcade, a boat ramp, boat docks, boat and kayak rentals, bike rentals, a pavilion, a playground, volleyball, basketball, gaga ball, and horseshoes fill the grounds, with fishing, boating, paddling, swimming, and biking on Buffalo Lake. Montello is the Marquette County seat and the birthplace of John Muir, whose formative years in this glacially sculpted lake country shaped the conservation thinking that eventually protected Yosemite. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Premium pull-throughs book first.

Split Ridge Campground

10 RV Sites

Split Ridge Campground near Lake Holcombe, Wisconsin, offers 10 full-hookup RV sites in Chippewa County's lake and forest country, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Back-in and pop-up/tent categories join a beach, pond, pavilion, walking trails, and playground. Ten sites run in back-in and pop-up/tent categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits. One thing to check before booking: service is 30-amp throughout, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A beach and pond anchor the recreation, with swimming, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, and pavilion filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Directions from the north: from Highway 27 turn left onto County Road D for five miles, right onto County Road G for 2.2 miles, then right onto 295th Avenue and follow it in. Lake Holcombe sits just west — a 3,890-acre flowage on the Chippewa River that produces genuinely good walleye, musky, and panfish, with the kind of quiet northern Wisconsin shoreline that keeps regulars coming back rather than moving on to bigger water. The Chippewa County forest surrounds the area, with the Flambeau River State Forest and the Blue Hills within reach for hiking and ATV riding. Summer is the short, intense season in northern Wisconsin, with the fall fishing runs strong and ice fishing drawing a distinct winter following on the flowage. Reserve ahead for July and August weekends.

Tippy Dam Campground and Cabins

17 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 11 Tent Sites

Tippy Dam Campground and Cabins in Wellston, Michigan, offers 17 RV sites, three cabins, and 11 tent sites on the Manistee River, with 20, 30, and 50-amp electric service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 50 feet, open all year. A single 20/30/50-amp category joins a general store, dump station, playground, and casino, inside the Manistee National Forest. Seventeen sites carry electric service on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Plan around the hookups — these are electric sites rather than full hookup, so arrive with full water and empty tanks and use the dump station. Accessible sites are available. Three cabins and 11 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, dump station, and showers handle the practical side. One firewood note: you may bring your own, but not oak with the bark still attached, because of oak wilt. The river is the recreation, with fishing, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boats, and swimming from the property, plus biking, horseshoes, and planned activities. A casino sits on the property, with skiing, a golf course, and lakes nearby. Pets are welcome. The campground takes its name from Tippy Dam, the hydroelectric facility on the Manistee, and the tailwater below it is one of Michigan's most celebrated trout and salmon fisheries. The fall king salmon run draws anglers from across the Midwest, with steelhead following through winter and spring. Fall salmon season and summer both drive demand. Reserve well ahead for September and October.

Silver Springs Campsites

152 RV Sites

Silver Springs Campsites in Rio, Wisconsin, offers 152 RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 42 feet, between Madison and the Wisconsin Dells. Full hookup and water-and-electric back-in categories join an outdoor pool, beach, pond, and jumping pillow on a family-oriented property. One hundred fifty-two back-in sites run in full hookup and water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 42 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Note the 42-foot cap before booking a larger rig. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Golf carts rent at $75 per day with a two-day minimum on regular weekends and three days on holidays; drivers must be 18 with a valid license. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the summer, with an on-site pond supporting fishing, boating, paddle boats, canoeing, and kayaking. A recreation center, game room, billiards, ping pong, jumping pillow, basketball, volleyball, bocce ball, horseshoes, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, and a pavilion fill the grounds, with on-site dining and planned activities through the season. The resort also operates as a wedding venue. Pets are welcome. The self-contained recreation is the point — guests get a full outdoor program without driving to regional lakes or state parks, in the farm and lake country of Columbia County. Summer is the season. Reserve ahead.

Timber Ridge Resort

Timber Ridge Resort in Traverse City, Michigan, offers RV sites, cabins, cottages, and yurts in Grand Traverse County's cherry orchard and vineyard countryside along the Lake Michigan shore — a four-accommodation-format resort in the heart of one of the Midwest's most desirable travel destinations, where the cold-water bay scenery, the nationally recognized wine and culinary industry, the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, and Traverse City's genuinely excellent arts and dining culture combine to make this stretch of northwestern Lower Michigan one of the most broadly appealing regional destinations in the Great Lakes. The resort's accommodation range from full-hookup RV sites to basic and deluxe cabin configurations to yurts gives it the flexibility to serve the full spectrum of Traverse City-area visitors. Full hookups for RV travelers and a range of cabin, cottage, and yurt options give Timber Ridge Resort the accommodation diversity to serve groups of different sizes, equipment situations, and comfort preferences across the cherry blossom, summer, fall color, and ice wine seasons that define Traverse City's four-season appeal. The resort's Traverse City location gives guests the immediate access to the town's downtown breweries, restaurants, galleries, and farmers markets that makes TC one of the few small Michigan cities consistently drawing visitors from Chicago, Detroit, and Columbus specifically for its locally produced food and drink culture. Pets are welcome. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, 22 miles west of Traverse City, is a National Park Service unit protecting 71,000 acres of Lake Michigan shoreline, perched dunes up to 400 feet above the lake surface, hardwood forest, and the offshore Manitou Islands — one of the most scenically varied National Lakeshore units on the Great Lakes and the site of the Dune Climb, where visitors ascend 130 feet of loose sand for a Lake Michigan viewshed that ABC's Good Morning America viewers voted "the Most Beautiful Place in America" in 2011. The North and South Manitou Islands, accessible by ferry from Leland, provide backcountry island hiking and camping in a Great Lakes wilderness setting. The Old Mission Peninsula and Leelanau Peninsula wine regions surrounding Traverse City have emerged as nationally significant producers of Riesling, Pinot Grigio, and cool-climate white varieties in a viticultural region whose 45th parallel latitude and Lake Michigan microclimate create growing conditions directly analogous to Alsace and the Mosel — a comparison that serious wine consumers have validated through consistent critical recognition since the 1990s. The peninsula tasting room circuit, accessible by bicycle from downtown Traverse City, gives guests the wine tourism experience integrated into the cherry orchard and Bay scenery landscape rather than separated into a discrete industrial wine district. Timber Ridge Resort operates from spring through fall in northern Michigan's Great Lakes climate, with the National Cherry Festival in early July representing Traverse City's highest-demand tourism week and the August color transition beginning the fall foliage season that peaks through October in the maple and beech hardwood forests of the Sleeping Bear and Leelanau country. Ice wine production from frozen Riesling grapes in January and February gives wine enthusiasts a winter-season reason to visit that the summer tourism economy obscures. Reserve accommodations months ahead for the Cherry Festival and peak August weekends, when Traverse City accommodation across all categories fills from the Midwest's established Traverse City visitor market.

Nature’s Touch Campground

35 RV Sites, 16 Cabins, 17 Tent Sites

Nature's Touch Campground in Wisconsin Dells, WI, offers 35 full-hookup RV sites, 16 cabins, and 17 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 30 feet. Sites come in four types — back-in, pool view back-in, pull-thru, and RV and tent water-and-electric. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Check the 30-foot maximum against your rig before booking; despite the big-rig rating, this is a small-rig campground. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, propane fills and exchange, a dump station, and portable toilets in the outer areas cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, mini-golf, a recreation center with an arcade and billiards, a craft room, a bar, sport courts, volleyball, basketball, corn hole, horseshoes, a community fire pit, a playground, and wooded walking trails fill the grounds. Nature's Touch sits three miles from downtown Wisconsin Dells, in the sandstone gorge country of the Wisconsin River, with the water parks a short drive away. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Pool view sites go first — and confirm your rig length before you reserve.

Jellystone Park™ Wisconsin Dells

186 RV Sites, 42 Cabins, 59 Tent Sites, 2 Yurts, 2 Houses, 7 Lodges

Jellystone Park Wisconsin Dells in Baraboo offers 186 RV sites, 51 cabin, house, and lodge units, 59 tent sites, and two yurts with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 52 feet behind a gated entrance. Red Carpet camp suites and theme sites near the water playground join standard categories — and every overnight stay includes the water activities. One hundred eighty-six sites span 20-amp and 30-amp water-and-electric, back-in, back-in theme sites near the water playground, back-in Red Carpet camp suites, and pull-through categories, sized to 52 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Accessible sites are available. Fifty-one cabins, houses, and lodges, 59 tent sites, and two yurts make the lodging range exceptional. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The base fee covers one camping or rental unit, one vehicle, and a set number of people by site type. Firewood restrictions apply — check before bringing your own. Free water activities with every stay are the distinguishing claim in a town built on waterparks. A water park, outdoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and inflatable water toys anchor the summer, with mini-golf, an arcade, game room, craft room, recreation center, boat rentals, a lake, sports courts, volleyball, shuffleboard, gaga ball, ping pong, golf cart rentals, a bar, and snack bar besides. Summer is decisively the season in the Dells. Reserve well ahead.

Fox Run Family Campground & RV Park

Fox Run Family Campground & RV Park in Fife Lake, Michigan, offers full-hookup RV sites on a forested property off US-131 in Grand Traverse County, with a lake, walking trails, and a big-rig-friendly layout. The campground sits at the Old Walton Junction trailhead, giving direct access to hiking and ORV trail connections. Full-hookup RV sites carry water, sewer, and electric on a layout sized for big coaches. A general store covers camp basics and firewood, laundry and a dump station handle longer stays, and restrooms, showers, and WiFi serve the sites. A lending library rounds out the practical amenities — a small touch, but one that says something about how the family runs the place. Pets are welcome. The trailhead position is the distinguishing feature. Old Walton Junction connects directly to hiking and ORV trails that extend into the surrounding national forest, which means riders and hikers leave from the campground rather than trailering out. A lake sits on the property for fishing, with walking trails, biking, horseshoes, corn hole, and picnicking across the grounds and a playground and dog park for families and pets. Fife Lake sits in the white pine and mixed hardwood landscape of northwest Lower Michigan, on the US-131 corridor connecting the Grand Rapids metro to Traverse City. That gives the family-owned campground two distinct markets — through-traffic on the highway and regional recreation demand generated by the Manistee National Forest, Fife Lake itself, and the northern Lower Michigan trail network. The campground serves the Michigan season. Summer lake and trail traffic drives the peak, with fall color and ORV riding weather extending demand into October. Reserve ahead for summer weekends and fall color.

Skillet Creek Campground

56 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 56 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

Skillet Creek Campground in Baraboo, Wisconsin, offers 57 RV sites, eight cabins, and 56 tent sites across 70 wooded acres, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 45 feet behind a gated entrance. Full-hookup, pull-through, water-and-electric, and waterfront daily categories join a water park, beach, jumping pillow, and creek. Fifty-seven sites span 20/30/50-amp daily full hookup, 20/30/50-amp daily pull-thru full hookup, 20/30/50-amp daily water-and-electric, and 20/30/50-amp waterfront categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Accessible sites are available. Eight cabins and 56 tent sites make the tent inventory unusually deep. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. You can lock a specific site during booking — it shows as locked on the reservation grid. A water park and beach anchor the summer, with a lake, pond, and creek supporting boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing. A jumping pillow, game room, gaga ball, sports courts, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, and dog park fill the rest, with live music and wine tasting nearby. Devil's Lake State Park is Wisconsin's most visited, and its north entrance is one mile away. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.

Boyne Country RV Park and Campground

23 RV Sites

Boyne Country RV Park and Campground in Boyne City, MI, offers 24 RV sites with 20 and 30-amp service and room for rigs up to 35 feet. Sites come in six configurations covering drive-in or back-in and pull-through layouts at 20-amp and 30-amp, plus full-hookup pull-throughs at both. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric. Two things to plan around: service tops out at 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management, and the 35-foot maximum keeps this to smaller rigs. A bathhouse with showers, a general store, a dump station, a recreation center, and a community fire pit cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. A disc golf course, lake and river frontage, and mountain views fill the grounds, with swimming, fishing, boating, kayaking, hiking, biking, birding, and picnicking. Golf is nearby. Boyne City sits on the southern shore of Lake Charlevoix in Charlevoix County, at the heart of Northern Michigan's four-season resort region, with restaurants and shops minutes away. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Confirm your rig fits the 35-foot limit before reserving.
