It's a great place to camp. Go find your campsite, set up, find the marker for which spot you're at, go to the office down the road from the fire tower and log in your info on the deposit slip (by the firewood storage). The office is said to be closed on the weekend, but I guess I was lucky it happened to be open on a Saturday, as I needed firewood and the cart was empty. Staff is wonderful. DNR was nice. Very rough camping if you like that kind of thing with short and easy to rugged and long trails.

I really enjoy this park everyone is generally friendly and helpful. The only thing I don't like about this campground is that they don't have a shower and pit toilets.

A nice primitive campground. It has pit toilets and a big sink outside to wash your hands, fire ring and picnic table. Some sites are shaded and big enough for a small trailer. We were there during the week and it was very quiet. Only four other sites occupied. Ice (2.00) and generous amount of wood (5.00) available at the state forest office where you sign up for your site. Nice hiking trails (two trails 10 miles long), a 5 mile paved bike path, and a lake for trolling motor powdered boats.

One of the BEST tent camping areas I've been to!! Great spots to camp, although the "potty" was not good!! Too many bugs!! Can't wait to go back soon!!!

It's a nice little camp ground but it's a great park. Much longer hiking trails then Brown County with a fraction of the ppl as well. Good for a 10 mile easy bike ride too.
