SARA Park Campground

10 RV Sites

SARA Park Campground in Tomahawk, Wisconsin, offers 10 full-hookup back-in RV sites on the Wisconsin River, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 60 feet. A single back-in category means every guest gets the same spec, with a public beach, boat ramp, pavilion, playground, and river frontage. Ten back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. One consistent category and no guesswork about what you booked, and 60 feet accommodates a long coach with a tow — generous for a municipal facility. A dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A beach and boat ramp open the water for boating, fishing, and swimming, with a pavilion, playground, and volleyball filling the rest. A golf course is nearby. Pets are welcome. Directions: take Exit 229 on US Highway 51 and head west on State Highway 86 / Somo Avenue; at the four-way stop, continue straight into the park. The City of Tomahawk manages SARA Park as a community facility, which shows in both the pricing and the public recreation on the grounds — the beach and boat ramp serve local residents as much as campers, and the campground is genuinely well equipped for its size. Lincoln County sits in northern Wisconsin's lake and river country, where the Wisconsin River widens through a chain of flowages. Tomahawk, Lake Nokomis, and the Willow Flowage are all close, with the Northwoods' musky fishing and the Ice Age Trail nearby. Summer is the season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

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, WI, offers 19 RV sites, 5 cabin and mobile home rentals, and 3 tent sites, with 30-amp service and room for rigs up to 80 feet. Sites are back-ins with electric service, site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. These are not full hookups — plan on arriving with water aboard and confirm what's available at your site when you book. Note the electrical: this is a 30-amp property, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management. At 80 feet, though, the sites take a longer rig than almost anything else in the Northwoods. FSX and Transcend RV rentals are available for guests without a rig, and there's a bathhouse with showers on the property. Pets are welcome. The Peshtigo River's whitewater is the reason the resort exists, with rafting, kayaking, boating, and boat rentals, plus an outdoor pool, on-site dining, walking trails, a lake, and swimming, fishing, hiking, and birding. Athelstane sits in Marinette County in Wisconsin's Northwoods. Rates for sites, cabins, and tent spots are on the booking page. Rafting season weekends 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.

Hidden Shady Nook

3 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

Hidden Shady Nook on Pike Lake in Cornell, Wisconsin, offers three RV sites and two cabins across 800 feet of shoreline, with 30-amp water-and-electric service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 30 feet. A single water-and-electric back-in category joins a boat ramp, boat docks, kayak rentals, beach, barn, and bar. Three back-in sites carry water and electric on 30-amp, sized to 30 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two things to plan around: the 30-foot cap rules out most modern coaches, so this suits vans and small trailers, and the sites carry water and electric rather than sewer. Accessible sites are available. Two cabins round out the lodging. A general store, restrooms, showers, boat storage, and on-site dining handle the practical side. For after-hours help, contact the camp host at the number posted at the office. A boat ramp, boat docks, and kayak rentals open the lake for boating, paddle boats, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing, with a beach on the property. A barn, bar, playground, walking trails, and picnicking fill the rest, with live music through the season. Pets are welcome. Pike Lake is a 200-acre, 38-foot-deep spring-fed lake with genuinely clear water and a strong reputation among Chippewa County anglers — the kind of small, deep northern lake that stays cold and fishes well through summer while shallower waters warm. Eight hundred feet of shoreline for three RV sites means the lake is effectively yours. Summer is the short, intense Wisconsin season. Reserve well ahead.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Pine Mountain Campground

4 Tent Sites

Pine Mountain Campground on Devil Track Lake, ten minutes east of Grand Marais, Minnesota, offers lakeside tent and RV sites with water hookups, a dump station, a marina, and a fishing pier on Cook County's North Shore. Fire pits and picnic tables sit at the sites, with swimming and boating directly from the lake. Back-in sites carry water hookups with fire pits and picnic tables. This is a modest, lake-focused campground rather than a full-service resort — there are no sewer hookups, and a dump station serves RV guests. Restrooms are on site. Guests should arrive prepared for simpler infrastructure than a commercial park offers, which is much of the point here. Pets are welcome. The lake carries everything. A marina and fishing pier give direct access to Devil Track Lake for boating and fishing, with swimming from the shoreline. The setting is the amenity — quiet water ten minutes off the North Shore's main corridor. The surrounding geography is exceptional. Grand Marais sits on Lake Superior, where the Sawtooth Mountains' basalt ridges descend to the world's largest freshwater lake by surface area. The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness begins its million-acre lake-and-portage interior nearby, and the Gunflint Trail's 57-mile corridor reaches into the most remote accessible wilderness in Minnesota at the Ontario border. Grand Marais itself holds an established art colony, the North House Folk School, and southern trailheads for the Superior Hiking Trail. The campground runs the short North Shore season. Summer is the peak by a wide margin, with fall color drawing a second wave — reserve ahead for both.

Warrens Lodging

30 Villas

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.

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.
