Beautiful lake with lots of trails and plenty of parking. Multiple actual bathrooms in the park as well as some nice changing areas near the beach at the lake. There's a decent amount of shade near the beach.
What an amazing experience of watching northern lights from here. So peaceful night and a calm lake in the backdrop. The sky was so glowing beautiful. The drive to the place was even nicer.
Enjoyable small clean lake in Southern Kettle Moraine. Great for kayaking, fishing, and swimming, with a nice beach. Beach can get grounded at times, but it's sandy and clean. You often see wildlife sitting on a bench or in your kayak. There is also a dog friendly swim area at the boat launch.
This was our first time here and besides the rain all weekend, we loved the campground!! Very helpful staff and Volunteer Hosts. Big spacious sites, clean bathrooms and showers, beautiful beach and a separate beach for dogs! Wonderful place!
Made our 3 night reservation in advance and paid for it- showed up at 4pm day of our reservation and someone was on our site. Warden said they were too drunk to move and we had to pick a different site, but we'd have to move after 2 nights because there weren't any other sites with 3 nights. (Or move to our original site the next day.) So setup, take down, set up, and take down again. No thanks. Stayed 2 nights and left. Nice campground, pretty trails, fun dog beach area, kayak the little lake and bike around. Noise from highway can be loud.
