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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

SARA Park Campground

10 RV Sites

SARA Park Campground in Tomahawk, Wisconsin, is a municipally managed campground on the Wisconsin River in Lincoln County's northern Wisconsin lake and river country — a well-equipped community facility that provides RV sites with 30- and 50-amp electric and water hookups, a public beach, a boat ramp, a pavilion, and direct access to the Wisconsin River and Lake Mohawksin in a setting that combines the practical infrastructure of a well-maintained municipal park with the natural recreation quality of one of northern Wisconsin's most productive river and lake systems. The campground's position directly on the water gives guests immediate Wisconsin River access without a separate marina or launch fee transaction. Electric and water hookups at 30 and 50 amps cover the primary RV hookup needs across a range of rig types, and the campground's beach, boat ramp, playground, and pavilion create the community recreation infrastructure that sustains stays beyond the pure hook-and-sleep overnight format. A dump station at the city garage handles the waste management logistics for self-contained rigs, and on-site Wi-Fi, pet-friendly accommodations, and public bathrooms with showers address the practical daily needs of both overnight travelers and week-long visitors. Fishing, swimming, and volleyball provide the core activity programming, and the campground's municipal character gives it a clean, well-maintained baseline that reflects genuine civic investment in the facility. Lake Mohawksin, the impoundment of the Wisconsin River that forms Tomahawk's immediate waterfront, and the Wisconsin River itself provide fishing for walleye, musky, largemouth and smallmouth bass, northern pike, and panfish through the full open-water season. Boat and jet ski rentals near the campground extend the water recreation access for guests without trailered watercraft, and the Wisconsin River's northern Wisconsin reach provides flatwater paddling corridors through forested terrain that maintains its wild character even in the proximity of an established community. The Bearskin State Trail, a paved multi-use trail running between Minocqua to the north and Tomahawk to the south, provides one of the most scenic and well-maintained cycling and walking surfaces in northern Wisconsin — a 18-mile trail following a former railroad grade through maple-basswood forest and alongside lakes and wetlands that makes a full round-trip an excellent half-day bicycle excursion for guests with bikes or rentals. The Kwahamot Water Ski Show, Tomahawk's long-running amateur waterski entertainment tradition, provides a specific cultural event experience that is a consistent summer Tomahawk draw for visitors arriving with its schedule in mind. Historic downtown Tomahawk's independent shops, restaurants, and North Fourth Street retail district give the community's commercial core a small-city character worth a walking-tour exploration. SARA Park Campground operates through the northern Wisconsin outdoor season from roughly May through October, with summer peak demand through July and August when the combination of lake recreation, water ski shows, and the northern Wisconsin summer camping culture brings strong visitor traffic to the Tomahawk area. The fall musky season from October through November is a specific attraction for the serious trophy musky angling community that targets Lake Mohawksin and the Wisconsin River's northern impoundments. Reserve sites ahead for summer peak weekends and Kwahamot Water Ski Show dates when the campground's direct river access is at its most competitively sought.

Lake View Lodge

9 Cabins

Lake View Lodge sits on the shores of Shagawa Lake in Ely, Minnesota — a lakeside cabin resort in the Boundary Waters gateway community that has provided fishing, boating, and wilderness vacation experiences for over 18 years in a setting where the Shagawa's 2,000-plus acres of walleye, northern pike, bass, crappie, perch, and bluegill habitat provide the kind of multi-species fishing variety that sustains a full week of angling without returning to the same spot twice. Ely's position at the edge of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness gives the lodge a dual character — a fully comfortable lakeside fishing retreat in its own right, and the most practical staging base for the BWCAW wilderness canoe travel that draws paddlers from across the upper Midwest. Each cabin at Lake View Lodge comes fully equipped with a complete kitchen, a contemporary bathroom with shower, and air conditioning — the amenity set that ensures guests can focus on the lake and the wilderness rather than the management of basic lodging logistics. The pontoon boat furnished with each cabin unit gives guests immediate and highly accessible watercraft from the moment of arrival, removing the equipment-sourcing step that typically requires a separate marina transaction. The combination of full kitchen, A/C, and included pontoon boat gives Lake View Lodge a practical self-sufficiency particularly suited to multi-generational fishing groups and families with children who benefit from the lodge's comfort infrastructure alongside the lake's recreational depth. Shagawa Lake's fishery reflects the productivity of the Canadian Shield lake environment — clear, cold, oligotrophic water over a granite and glacial till basin that supports the forage base for healthy year-round populations of walleye, northern pike, bass, perch, and bluegill. The lake's connectivity to the broader BWCAW watershed means the fish populations benefit from the wild corridor of protected lakes and streams extending north from Shagawa into the Boundary Waters, maintaining the wild character of the fishery in a lake immediately accessible from town. The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, the most visited wilderness area in the United States, encompasses over one million acres of lake-and-portage canoe country along the Minnesota-Ontario border — a network of over 1,000 lakes connected by portage trails where motor travel is restricted or prohibited and the experience of extended paddling travel through a genuinely intact subarctic wilderness ecosystem is available within paddling distance of Ely's outfitter row. The International Wolf Center in Ely provides the most comprehensive public wolf biology education program in North America, with live ambassador wolves and interpretive exhibits that connect the lodge's wilderness location to the ecological significance of the species that defines the BWCAW's predator community. Lake View Lodge operates through the northern Minnesota outdoor season, with ice-out in May launching the open-water fishing season that runs through freeze-up in November. The BWCAW canoe season peaks from June through early September, and the fall fishing calendar for walleye and northern pike provides particularly productive angling as the water cools and fish activity increases ahead of winter. Reserve cabins well ahead for the prime summer and fall fishing windows, when Ely's lodging inventory fills from the BWCAW outfitter and fishing tourism market that defines the community's visitor economy.

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.

Wheelers RV Park

15 RV Sites

Wheelers RV Park in Wascott, Wisconsin, offers 15 full-hookup RV sites on spacious oversized lots with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 70 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, positioned directly on one of Douglas County's top ATV and UTV trail systems. Weekly, monthly, and seasonal stays are the park's core business. Fifteen sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 70 feet. The lots are genuinely oversized, which is the configuration extended-stay guests in northern Wisconsin look for — room for the rig, the trailer, and the machines without crowding a neighbor. Weekly, monthly, and seasonal rates are available. Pets are welcome. Trail access is the reason to book. The park sits directly on one of the best ATV and UTV trail systems in the county, so riders can leave from their site rather than trailering out. Volleyball, biking, and birding fill the rest, with a golf course nearby. Wascott sits in Douglas County in the Northwoods lake district, where jack pine and red pine forest, hundreds of miles of managed forest road trails, and the drumlin lakes and cold-water streams of the St. Croix-Lake Superior divide define the outdoor recreation character that the region's seasonal camping and year-round resident population is built around. Riding season runs spring through fall, with fall color weekends drawing the heaviest traffic and winter bringing snowmobile riders. With 15 sites weighted toward extended stays, call ahead for short-stay availability.

Mont du Lac Resort

20 RV Sites, 16 Cabins, 14 Tent Sites

On the Wisconsin side of the St. Louis River overlooking the Duluth-Superior harbor, Mont du Lac Resort delivers year-round outdoor adventure from a single hillside property — transitioning from a downhill ski and snowboard hub through the winter months to a mountain biking and disc golf retreat across the warmer season. Few resorts in the Upper Midwest match Mont du Lac for the breadth of activities available in one place across every season, making it equally compelling for a ski-weekend booking in January and a mountain biking trip in July. Accommodations range from Trophy Suites and deluxe cabins to RV sites and tent camping, giving guests a full spectrum of lodging options within the resort's wooded grounds. A full-service chalet with a bar and restaurant anchors the social side of the property and handles post-activity recovery with the kind of comfortable informality that active outdoor resorts do best. The staff brings genuine enthusiasm for the activities that define the Mont du Lac experience — particularly useful for first-time skiers or riders navigating the hill's layout. Pets are welcome throughout the resort. The hillside setting overlooking the St. Louis River is striking in every season. Winter transforms the slope into snow-covered ski terrain with runs suited to all ability levels, from beginner-friendly pitches to steeper runs that challenge intermediate skiers. When the snow melts, nine kilometers of dedicated mountain biking trails wind through the same wooded hillside, and an 18-hole mountain disc golf course adds a year-round low-key option that attracts a different demographic from the downhill crowd. The river views below the hill change character across seasons as dramatically as the hillside activities above. Duluth, Minnesota, sits just across the St. Louis River and adds one of the Upper Midwest's most interesting small cities to the resort's regional draw. The Aerial Lift Bridge — one of the most recognizable pieces of engineering in Minnesota — spans the ship canal at Canal Park, where the Great Lakes Aquarium, the waterfront Lakewalk, and a concentration of breweries and restaurants create a lively lakeside district. The Skyline Parkway above Duluth provides panoramic views over Lake Superior that rank among the finest urban overlooks in the region. Pattison State Park, home to Big Manitou Falls — the highest waterfall in Wisconsin — and Jay Cooke State Park's dramatic gorge and suspension bridge are both within easy driving range. Mont du Lac Resort shines brightest during ski season, typically running December through early March depending on snowfall, and again in summer when mountain biking and disc golf replace the chairlifts. Book lodging well ahead of winter holiday weekends and Martin Luther King Jr. weekend, when the ski hill and resort facilities fill to capacity. Summer stays offer a quieter, more relaxed version of the resort — ideal for families and individuals who want outdoor recreation with more room to breathe than peak-season crowds allow.

Split Ridge Campground

10 RV Sites

Set in the lake and forest landscape east of Lake Holcombe in Chippewa County, Wisconsin, Split Ridge Campground offers a wooded retreat built for guests who want a quiet, well-maintained northern Wisconsin camping experience with direct access to some of the region's most productive fresh water fishing and paddling resources. Shaded sites with gravel driveways provide a stable and comfortable surface across multiple site types, and the campground's relaxed and community-oriented atmosphere gives it a character that rewards repeat visitors who return season after season for the combination of wooded solitude and water access. The campground's signature amenity is the Turtle Club—an open-air shelter constructed over a small pond with turtles, providing an informal gathering space with a distinctly Wisconsin character. A horseshoe pit, fire rings at each site, and additional outdoor game areas give guests recreational programming without leaving the campground grounds, while full hookups, Wi-Fi, laundry facilities, and clean restrooms and showers handle the practical infrastructure of a comfortable multi-night stay. Firewood is available on-site, and the general campground character favors a relaxed outdoor pace appropriate to a northern Wisconsin forest setting. Lake Holcombe, the primary water body in the immediate area, is a reservoir on the Chippewa River formed by a hydroelectric dam that creates a productive freshwater fishery for walleye, muskie, largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, and bluegill. The lake's connected bays and wooded shoreline offer excellent kayaking and canoeing conditions for paddle-oriented guests, and the boat launch infrastructure on Lake Holcombe provides straightforward water access for guests arriving with their own vessels. The adjacent Chippewa Flowage—one of Wisconsin's largest and most productive natural lakes—is accessible within a short drive and represents one of the premier muskie fishing destinations in the upper Midwest. The forested landscape of Chippewa County surrounding the campground is characteristic of northern Wisconsin's mixed pine and hardwood lake country—a terrain of glacially deposited ridges, kettle lakes, and river systems that defines the outdoor character of this portion of the state and provides habitat for white-tailed deer, black bears, eagles, loons, and an exceptionally diverse freshwater fishing community. The Tuscobia State Trail, a converted railroad grade extending through the region, provides a long-distance hiking, cycling, and snowmobile corridor for guests seeking off-water recreation in the surrounding forest landscape. Split Ridge Campground is open through the northern Wisconsin warm-weather season, with the lake and forest environment most accessible from late spring through early fall. Fishing season on Lake Holcombe and the Chippewa Flowage drives consistent weekend demand from opening in early May through the fall walleye and muskie peaks of September and October. The fall color season in Chippewa County's mixed forest landscape is particularly beautiful, and leaf-change weekends in late September and early October represent a popular shoulder-season reservation window. Advance booking for summer holiday weekends and the peak muskie fishing season is recommended for guests with preferred site locations in mind.

River's Edge Campground - Birchwood

River's Edge Campground in Birchwood, Wisconsin, offers full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric, cabins, and tent camping on the Brill River in Washburn County, with pull-through and back-in sites, fire pits, and picnic tables. A man-made swim pond with a beach supplements the river access, and site WiFi reaches the campground. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric in both pull-through and back-in configurations, with fire pits and picnic tables. Cabins serve guests traveling without a rig. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and laundry cover the practical side, a general store stocks basics and firewood, and WiFi reaches the sites. A pet washing station is on site — a genuinely useful detail after a day in the river. The Brill River frontage defines the campground. Swimming holes, tubing runs through clear northwoods water, and kayak launches give guests direct river access, while the swim pond and beach provide shallow, managed water for younger children. A dog park, playground, walking trails, sports courts, and basketball spread across the wooded grounds, with a jumping pillow, gaga ball, inflatable water toys, and planned activities filling the family calendar. Boating, canoeing, kayaking, and picnicking round it out. Pets are welcome. Birchwood sits in the northern Wisconsin lakes country between Spooner and Rice Lake, where the Namekagon and Brill rivers and a chain of glacial lakes define the landscape. Long Lake, the area UTV and ATV trails, and historic Hayward are the main draws nearby. The campground runs the northern Wisconsin summer season, with river swimming and tubing driving peak demand from June through August. Reserve ahead for summer weekends.
