Thornton's Rafting Resort and Campground

17 RV Sites, 4 Cabins, 3 Tent Sites, 1 Mobile Home, 2 Onsite RV/Trailers

Thornton's Rafting Resort and Campground in Athelstane, Wisconsin, provides RV sites, cabins, and tent camping alongside the Peshtigo River's whitewater rafting access in Marinette County's Northwoods country — a family-friendly resort whose on-site Camp Inn bar with billiards, darts, foosball, and video games gives guests the indoor social space that the Peshtigo River country's wet-weather rafting days specifically warrant, and whose proximity to one of Wisconsin's premier whitewater rivers makes it the natural overnight destination for guests coming to paddle the Peshtigo's technical Class II through IV drops. The resort's combination of water recreation access, diverse accommodation, and the social programming that the Camp Inn sustains gives it the multi-dimensional character that river resort campgrounds at their best consistently deliver. RV sites, cabins, and tent camping areas give the resort the accommodation range to serve the full spectrum of Peshtigo River adventure visitors — from families in cabins who want the river adjacent experience without tent camping to hardcore paddlers in tent sites who want the most immersive connection to the river environment. The Camp Inn bar's pool table, darts, foosball, and video games provide the evening social infrastructure that river resort campgrounds sustain most effectively when the outdoor programming shifts indoors after a full day of whitewater. Pets are welcome. The Peshtigo River through Marinette County is Wisconsin's most technically challenging and most widely respected whitewater river — a waterway whose watershed in the Nicolet National Forest and the Peshtigo River State Forest sustains Class II through Class IV rapids across its multiple run sections from the Caldron Falls Flowage downstream to the Lake Noquebay corridor. The First and Second Drop sections on the lower Peshtigo provide the Class IV technical rapids that Wisconsin whitewater kayakers and experienced rafters specifically pursue in a state where the generally flatwater river network makes the Peshtigo's gradient exceptional, while the Upper Peshtigo's continuous Class II-III paddling delivers the sustained exciting water that guided commercial raft trips specifically feature. Marinette County's Northwoods landscape — the Peshtigo River State Forest's 225,000 acres of northern Wisconsin mixed conifer and hardwood forest, the Caldron Falls and High Falls Flowages, and the Mountain Bay State Trail's rail-trail cycling through the Marinette County forest — gives resort guests the complete northern Wisconsin outdoor recreation portfolio beyond the river itself. The Peshtigo Fire Museum in the city of Peshtigo, 30 miles east, commemorates the October 8, 1871 fire that killed approximately 1,500 to 2,500 people on the same night as the Great Chicago Fire — one of the deadliest natural disasters in American history, historically overshadowed by the Chicago fire's greater national news coverage despite its far larger death toll. Thornton's Rafting Resort and Campground operates through the Northwoods season from spring through fall, with the spring high-water rafting season from April through June providing the most powerful and most technically demanding Peshtigo River conditions and the summer season delivering the most comfortable camping weather. Fall color in Marinette County's northern Wisconsin forest peaks from early October through mid-October in a maple, aspen, and birch display that the Peshtigo River corridor specifically frames with river reflections and forested bank foliage that river-level paddling reveals in its most intimate form. Reserve sites and cabins ahead for Memorial Day weekend and the peak spring whitewater season, when Peshtigo River visitor traffic fills the Athelstane corridor's limited accommodation.

HTR Door County Campground & RV Resort

84 RV Sites, 7 Cabins, 7 Glamping Sites, 20 Cottages, 2 Houses

HTR Door County Campground & RV Resort in Egg Harbor, Wisconsin, offers deluxe back-in RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups, sized to 45 feet, alongside cabins on a big-rig-friendly property behind a gated entrance. An outdoor pool, clubhouse, game room, and on-site dining bring resort-level camping to the heart of the Door Peninsula. Deluxe back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Cabins serve guests traveling without a rig. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout and a gated entrance controlling access. Check-in is after 2:00pm and check-out before 11:00am. Pets must be leashed at all times — remote collars do not count — and should never be left unattended. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a clubhouse, game room, arcade, and on-site dining for other hours. Sports courts, volleyball, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the grounds, with planned activities through the season and swimming, boating, and birding from the area. A beach, lake, river, state park, golf course, amusement park, and wineries are all nearby. Pets are welcome. Egg Harbor sits on the Door Peninsula, a 70-mile arm reaching into Lake Michigan with five state parks, working cherry orchards, artist communities, and a shoreline alternating between sandy beaches, limestone bluffs, and sheltered harbors. The village holds one of the peninsula's densest concentrations of restaurants, galleries, and waterfront access. Summer is decisively the season on Door County. Reserve well ahead.

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.

Chocolay River

76 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Chocolay River RV Park in Marquette, Michigan, offers 76 full-hookup pull-through RV sites and 10 tent sites on the south shore of Lake Superior, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. A single pull-through category means no backing at any site, with restrooms, showers, laundry, and river frontage just outside the city. Seventy-six sites are pull-through throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits. A single-category, all-pull-through layout is genuinely practical — every guest gets the same spec, no backing after a long drive, and 60 feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Ten tent sites round out the lodging. Restrooms, showers, and a laundry handle the practical side. The river runs the property, with hiking on the grounds and offroading nearby. The amenity set is deliberately spare, which keeps rates reasonable and suits a park built as a quiet base rather than a destination. Pets are welcome. The address is 123 Eagle Pass Trail near M-28. Marquette is the largest city in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and has become a serious destination for outdoor recreation without the crowds that come with it elsewhere — Lake Superior's shoreline, Presque Isle Park, the Noquemanon and South Marquette trail networks for mountain biking, Sugarloaf Mountain, and the waterfalls of the central UP are all close. Summer is the short, intense season on Lake Superior, with fall color drawing a strong second wave and snow sports filling winter. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and check operating dates for the shoulders.

from $30/night

Indian Lake RV Resort & Campground

57 RV Sites

Indian Lake RV Resort and Campground in Manistique, Michigan, offers 57 RV sites on the shores of Indian Lake in the Upper Peninsula, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Full-hookup back-in, water-and-electric back-in, and pull-through categories join a beach, cabins, and dump station in Schoolcraft County. Fifty-seven sites run in back-in, back-in water-and-electric, and pull-thru categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier before booking, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Cabins round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, and restrooms handle the practical side. A beach on the property supports swimming, boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Hiking runs through the surrounding forest, and the birding along the lakeshore and the nearby river is genuinely productive. A golf course and a state park are nearby. Pets are welcome. Indian Lake is the fourth-largest inland lake in Michigan, and this stretch of the Upper Peninsula's Big Lakes country sits between Lake Michigan's north shore and the waterfalls and birch forest of the central UP. Manistique's boardwalk and lighthouse are close, with Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Kitch-iti-kipi Big Spring, and the Seney National Wildlife Refuge all within reach — an unusual concentration of natural attractions for a quiet corner of the state. The UP season is short and concentrated. Summer is peak, with fall color drawing a strong second wave. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and check operating dates for the shoulder months.

Pearl Lake RV Campground

63 RV Sites, 8 Tent Sites

Pearl Lake RV Campground in Redgranite, Wisconsin, offers 63 RV sites and eight tent sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 40 feet. Back-in and pull-through categories at multiple amperages join an outdoor pool, mini-golf, ball field, beach, and on-site dining. Sixty-three sites span back-in 20/30/50-amp water-and-electric, back-in 20/30-amp water-and-electric, and pull-thru 20/30-amp water-and-electric categories, carrying water and electric, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two things to plan around: the sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity and use the dump station, and the 40-foot cap rules out larger rigs. Eight tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, personal mailboxes, and a snack bar handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a lake, pond, and beach alongside. Mini-golf, a recreation center, clubhouse, game room, ball field, sports courts, walking trails, a playground, pavilion, on-site dining, and a bar fill the grounds, with boating nearby. Pets are welcome. Redgranite sits in Waushara County's central Wisconsin lake country, named for the quarries that supplied paving stone across the Midwest a century ago. The surrounding chain of lakes, state fishery areas, and the Wild Rose hatchery corridor give the area a quiet recreational character. Summer is decisively the season in central Wisconsin. Reserve well ahead for July and August weekends.

Timberline Campground

98 RV Sites

Timberline Campground in Benzonia, Michigan, offers 98 RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet, in Benzie County's forested lake country. Full-hookup and water-and-electric categories in both back-in and pull-through serve anglers targeting the Betsie River and Lake Michigan's tributary streams, with two-story cabin rentals on site. Ninety-eight sites span full-hookup back-in, water-and-electric back-in, 30-amp pull-through, 50-amp pull-through, and water-and-electric pull-through categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi. Note the 40-foot cap before booking a larger rig. Two-story cabin rentals round out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, RV storage, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a clubhouse, pavilion, playground, and dog park across the grounds and basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, shuffleboard, and corn hole besides. Canoeing, kayaking, hiking, and swimming run from the area, with a golf course nearby. Pets are welcome. The campground's reputation is built on fishing — it is the premier base camp for trout and salmon anglers working the Betsie River system, and that loyal repeat community drives much of its business. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and Crystal Mountain's year-round resort are both close. Salmon and steelhead runs drive the sharpest demand spikes alongside summer family season. Reserve well ahead for both.

Stargazers U.P. Campground

25 RV Sites

Stargazers U.P. Campground opened in Spring 2025 as part of the North Ironwood Acres resort on the Black River Scenic Byway in Ironwood, Michigan—a new 25-site campground in the Gogebic County section of the Upper Peninsula where the Black River's waterfall corridor, Lake Superior's Black River Harbor, and the dramatic dark skies of the U.P. interior have defined an outdoor recreation landscape that the resort's name captures precisely. Ironwood sits on Michigan's western U.P. border with Wisconsin, in the core of the Gogebic Range mining country that has evolved into one of the most complete four-season outdoor recreation destinations in the Great Lakes region. Twenty-five large sites—each 75 by 35 feet—provide water, sewer, and 20/30/50-amp electric hookups on grassy pads with a bathhouse offering showers and flush toilets. A catch-and-release fishing pond accommodates paddleboarding and kayaking within the campground property, and private wooded multi-use trails give guests direct access to the Black River for river fishing, wading, and exploration without driving. Dog-friendly policies accommodate the working and hunting breeds that are common travel companions in the U.P.'s outdoor recreation culture. The Stargazers name reflects the property's unobstructed northern view, which provides optimal conditions for both routine stargazing and Aurora Borealis viewing—the Gogebic County latitude and the dark skies of the Upper Peninsula make it one of the more reliable aurora observation locations accessible by road in the contiguous United States. The North Ironwood Acres resort's Lodge, of which the campground is a part, adds significant amenity depth: an event hall seating 200, a full-service cocktail bar, a general store with essentials, billiards, and approximately 7.8 miles of maintained trails on the 400-acre resort property. The combination of campground infrastructure and resort social facilities gives Stargazers a hybrid character between a traditional campground and a destination resort that is rare in the U.P. market. The Black River Scenic Byway is the defining attraction corridor in the campground's immediate geography—the byway follows the Black River from Ironwood north to Lake Superior at Black River Harbor, passing through five named waterfalls (Gorge, Potawatomi, Conglomerate, Sandstone, and Rainbow Falls) that cascade through the sandstone and volcanic rock of the Black River canyon in a series of overlook platforms and moderate hiking connections. Stargazers is the closest lodging to all five waterfalls, making early morning and evening visits to the waterfall corridor practical without full-day drive commitments. Copper Peak, a ski-flying hill north of Ironwood that was the largest artificial ski jump in the Western Hemisphere during its operational years, now operates as a adventure tower with gondola and sky walk providing views across the U.P. into Wisconsin and Minnesota. Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park, 35 minutes east on M-64, protects 60,000 acres of old-growth northern hardwood and hemlock forest—the largest tract in the Midwest—around Lake of the Clouds, a mountain lake visible from the Escarpment Trail in a panoramic view that is one of the most photographed in Michigan. Peak seasons include summer hiking and water activity, fall color from late September through mid-October when the U.P.'s maple and birch forest delivers one of the most vivid foliage displays in the Great Lakes, and winter for downhill skiing at Ironwood's four ski areas—more ski terrain within a short drive than any other city of comparable size in the Midwest.

Mountain Valley Lodge and Campground

60 RV Sites, 16 Tent Sites

Three miles from Crystal Mountain Resort in Thompsonville, Michigan—in Benzie County in the northwestern Lower Peninsula where the Betsie River, the Crystal River, and the surrounding chain of spring-fed lakes create the river kayaking, trout fishing, and lake recreation landscape that Benzie County's outdoor community is built around, and where Crystal Mountain's 58 ski trails and championship-quality golf courses anchor the resort economy that keeps the Thompsonville area busy across all four seasons—Mountain Valley Lodge and Campground provides 76 campground sites, 20 lodge rooms, a heated outdoor pool, and the most functionally complete non-resort-affiliated camping option adjacent to Crystal Mountain for guests who want the mountain's amenities at campground pricing. The three-mile proximity to Crystal Mountain creates the combination that neither the mountain's own camping nor a distant campground can match. Seventy-six total campground sites include 10 large full hookup pull-through positions, 50 full hookup back-in sites, and 16 electric-only sites serving tent campers and small pop-up rigs. Every campsite includes a fire pit and picnic table in the standard configuration that Michigan campground guests expect as the baseline site amenity. An 8-room bathhouse building with private shower rooms and separate men's and women's restroom facilities serves the campground's shared hygiene infrastructure. A heated outdoor pool provides the aquatic recreation anchor for summer stays, and a volleyball court and basketball court extend the organized sport options. A recreation room in the lodge—with a full-size pool table, air hockey, and additional table games—provides the indoor entertainment infrastructure for rainy Michigan summer days that the campground's wooded position makes statistically likely on any multi-week stay. Twenty lodge rooms give guests traveling without RVs the enclosed accommodation option at campground-proximate pricing, making the property's combined lodge-and-campground format practical for mixed groups where some members arrive in RVs and others prefer conventional lodging. Crystal Mountain's four-season resort character makes the Thompsonville area a year-round viable destination in a way that distinguishes Benzie County from single-season camping markets. Winter brings Crystal Mountain's 58 ski and snowboarding trails, ice skating, and tubing to a scale that makes it Michigan's largest family ski resort. Summer converts the mountain to a golf destination with championship courses and the Alpine Slide—a wheeled summer luge run down the ski terrain that is among the most purely enjoyable non-athletic summer activities in the Michigan resort landscape. The spa, the resort's extensive summer hiking and mountain biking trails, and the canopy tour extend the warm-season activity calendar. The Betsie and Crystal Rivers accessible within minutes of the campground provide the kayaking, canoeing, and fly fishing access that Benzie County's cold, spring-fed river systems are specifically celebrated for in the Michigan outdoor recreation community. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore—ranked by Good Morning America viewers as the most beautiful place in America in 2011 and sustaining that reputation with the Dune Climb's 200-foot sand face above Lake Michigan—is a 45-minute drive west, providing the national park day trip that completes the Benzie County camping itinerary. Mountain Valley Lodge and Campground is open year-round in alignment with Crystal Mountain's four-season resort calendar. Book early for ski weekends in January and February and summer peak weeks in July and August, and let the three-mile proximity to Crystal Mountain turn a Benzie County camping trip into the full northern Michigan resort experience at the fraction of the mountain's on-site accommodation pricing.

Leelanau Pines Campground

52 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 5 Glamping Sites

Leelanau Pines Campground in Cedar, Michigan, offers 52 full-hookup RV sites, nine cabins, and five glamping sites on the southern shore of Lake Leelanau, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet. Lakefront basic and lakefront standard categories join premium and standard back-in tiers, with a disc golf course, jumping pillow, beach, and bar. Fifty-two back-in sites run in lakefront basic, lakefront standard, premium back-in, and standard back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The lakefront tiers are the ones to request, and offering both a basic and a standard lakefront option keeps waterfront within reach at two price points. Nine cabins — including two luxury types sleeping up to eight — and five glamping sites round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A disc golf course, jumping pillow, sports courts, pickleball, basketball, gaga ball, corn hole, walking trails, a playground, on-site dining, and a bar fill the grounds, with the lake supporting boating, fishing, and swimming. Wine and beer tasting and a golf course are nearby. The Leelanau Peninsula is one of Michigan's most celebrated summer regions, where Lake Michigan's moderating climate produces cherry orchards and a serious wine country, with Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City close. Summer is decisively the season in northern Michigan, with fall color drawing a strong second wave. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Sun Retreats Fond Du Lac East

20 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 3 Tent Sites

Tucked into the rolling hills of Wisconsin's Kettle Moraine region, Sun Retreats Fond Du Lac East spreads across 103 wooded acres near Glenbeulah, offering a resort-scale camping experience in one of the state's most distinctive natural landscapes. Whether you're planning a summer weekend getaway or searching for a seasonal home base with plenty of breathing room, this well-developed resort delivers the kind of facilities that make packing up the RV an easy decision. The Kettle Moraine region—carved out by glaciers and defined by forests, wetlands, and rolling terrain—provides a dramatic natural backdrop from the moment you pull through the gate. Sites at Sun Retreats Fond Du Lac East accommodate both seasonal residents and short-term visitors, with wooded RV pads and cabin rentals available for those who prefer not to bring their own rig. Three heated swimming pools—a kiddie pool, a mid-sized pool, and a sports pool—give every generation their own lane to cool off in during the warm months. Mini golf, shuffleboard courts, pickleball, volleyball, and basketball round out the active recreation lineup, while the on-site arcade provides an indoor option when afternoon storms roll through. A dog park, trading post, snack bar, and laundry facilities keep the resort self-sufficient for days when leaving sounds like too much effort. Nature trails wind through the wooded property, providing easy walking access to the glacially sculpted terrain that defines the Kettle Moraine. Kettles, eskers, and drumlin formations—visible remnants of the great ice sheets that retreated from this part of Wisconsin thousands of years ago—make even a casual trail walk feel like a geology field trip. Cool mornings in the Kettle Moraine bring mist that settles into the low hollows, and the tree canopy holds a particular quiet that makes the resort feel considerably wilder than its amenity list might imply. Step beyond the property and the Southern Unit of Kettle Moraine State Forest beckons with hundreds of miles of trails built for hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian riding. Road America, the beloved motorsport circuit in Elkhart Lake, draws racing fans from across the Midwest throughout the summer and fall season. The lakefront city of Fond du Lac is a quick drive north for dining, provisioning, and recreation on the southern shore of Lake Winnebago, while the scenic back roads and small villages of the Kettle Moraine corridor reward unhurried afternoon drives. Sun Retreats Fond Du Lac East operates seasonally and experiences its highest demand during summer weekends when all three pools, the courts, and the trails hit full capacity simultaneously. Laundry facilities and a full slate of on-site services keep extended stays comfortable without requiring daily trips to town. Both seasonal and short-term reservations fill quickly once summer approaches, so booking early is strongly advised. Whether you're after a long weekend exploring the Kettle Moraine or looking to plant roots for the entire camping season, this resort offers the right combination of natural setting and resort-quality amenities. Lock in your dates and secure your spot in Wisconsin's glacial heartland.

Hattie Sherwood Campground

20 RV Sites, 12 Tent Sites

Situated on the shores of Big Green Lake in the central Wisconsin village of Green Lake, Hattie Sherwood Campground offers RV sites and tent sites with elevated views of the lake through a mature hardwood canopy—a natural setting that takes advantage of Big Green Lake's status as the deepest inland lake in Wisconsin, with a maximum depth of 237 feet that gives the water an unusually clear, cold quality distinctive among the state's glacially formed lakes. The campground's wooded bluff position provides dappled shade throughout the day that moderates summer temperatures and enhances the visual appeal of the lakeside setting. Each site is equipped with a picnic table and fire pit, and the campground's facilities include bathrooms, showers, a dump station, and a boat ramp giving guests direct lake access from within the property. A children's playground and walking trails make the campground functional for families with younger guests, and the pet-friendly policy accommodates travelers with dogs. The recently added permanent pier on the lake extends the guests' connection to the water, and firewood is available for purchase on-site for campfire evenings under the Green Lake hardwood canopy. Hattie Sherwood Beach, directly across the street from the campground, provides a sandy swimming beach and additional shoreline access that complements the campground's bluff-side position above the lake. Kayaks, canoes, and rowboats are available for rent nearby, and the marina on Green Lake supports more expansive boating for guests bringing their own watercraft or seeking charter options on the lake. Fishing on Big Green Lake targets walleye, smallmouth bass, northern pike, and panfish across a season that extends from ice-out in spring through the fall fishing window. The village of Green Lake hosts an active summer and fall community event calendar, with local dining options, ice cream shops, and the historic Heidel House Resort and Spa providing additional amenity access for campground guests within walking distance or a short drive of the campground. The Green Lake Conference Center, one of the oldest conference centers in the country, draws event-related visitors to the community throughout the season, and the surrounding Marquette County landscape provides additional hiking and scenic driving options for guests exploring beyond the immediate lake area. Hattie Sherwood Campground is open through the warm-weather camping season, with summer representing the peak period for lake swimming, boating, and fishing. Green Lake's cold, clear water makes it an appealing swimming destination even during the warmest weeks of summer, when shallower lakes warm to less comfortable temperatures. Advance reservations are recommended for summer holiday weekends, when the campground's lakeside position and immediate beach access make it one of the more sought-after sites in central Wisconsin's lake country. Big Green Lake's cold, clear water—maintained by the lake's unusual depth and the cold spring inputs that feed it from the surrounding limestone formations—gives it a water quality that supports exceptional trout fishing and a swimming experience distinctly different from the warmer, shallower lakes that are more common in central Wisconsin's glaciated landscape.
