We do a lot of camping in the Dells, we come up here about 3 times every year. In July of 06 we came to the Dells on the spur of the moment, most of the campgrounds were filled but Baraboo campground had many sites open so we camped here.The sites are wooded, lots of shade. The pool was dirty and had a odor to it. The rest rooms were clean. At about 10:00pm one night my wife and i were having a camp fire, and our son was watching TV. When one of the guards started yelling at us to turn the radio down, I said sure no problem and I got up to to go turn the TV down. About 10 min later the same guard walked by and entered our camp site and we said hello to him he said I told you to turn that radio down. I said I did. The whole time I am talking to him he was staring down my wife's shirt. I told him I will just turn it off. I said is there any thing else he said no and before he walked away he gave one last stare at my wife. We will never camp here again to many good campgrounds in the Dells, that's why it was so empty on the 4th of july week. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I'd like to commend the staff and management at Baraboo Hills Campground in Wisconsin for a job well done! I checked into a w/e site, began to set up my pop up camper and lo and behold in the downpour evening, the crank broke! I came back to office frustrated and wanting to cancel my camping weekend. The manager greeted me and immediately set my family up in an available cabin and called a mechanic to repair my pop up. Within 24 hours my popup was fixed and my family was still able to enjoy a wonderful week of camping. Thank you for going the extra mile Baraboo Hills! My family was very pleased with the cleanliness, kindness and caring attitude your staff put forth. It was invigorating to see the staff working so hard (cleaning showers, bathrooms, cabins, delivering wood, mowing and trimming trees) yet having a good time. We're making this our annual spot! We camped here in a .

We stayed here memorial day weekend. We stayed in a campsite across from some of the cabins, as we had friends staying in the cabin. I felt it was a nice campground to stay at. Sites were wide enough and had some room. Staff was friendly, family's camping nearby were all friendly. Pool was full as it was a great weekend for weather. Back to the sites. They were grassy, shaded, water, electric and sewer. Wouldn't ask to change any of that. Thank you for the great weekend. Our friends loved the cabin as well. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I wish I would of known about this site before we went to this campground. Do not get me wrong, this campsite could be nice if they got all new management and workers. For one thing our site was filled with holes and it looked like the firepit had not been cleaned for some time. I also have to laugh at their so called quiet time. They seem to only enforce it for certain sites. We heard dogs barking and loud music and loud talking some nights till 2am. When we complained about it at the office they said that you will have that when camping. The guard also made us feel very uneasy. He never seemed to enforce the speed limit of people coming into the campground at night and we noticed on more then one occasion him walking thru peoples sites and around their things even when they were in their campers. We also witnessed him yell at a campsite that we could not even hear talking and start to yell at the people for being loud. The only thing we could hear was him telling the people to be quiet and they were elderly couple. We also witnessed what some previous people witnessed about the guard peeping thru bushes. On more then one night camping while going for a walk at night thru the campground we saw the guard watching people thru bushes and also peeping around their campers. This made us feel very uneasy. We will not camp at this campground again or recommend it to anyone. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We have camped at this park many times over the last 6 years, including last Labor Day weekend. It is my kids first choice in parks because they like the free sport shop. Regarding the above negative reviews, as I mentioned, we camped there at the same time so I was concerned about the issue of harrassment and stalking. I checked with the Baraboo Police Department and was informed that they do not have jurisdiction over the campground, hence they did not send out anyone from their department. The campground falls under the Sauk Co. Sherriff's Department, so I checked with them and they also said that they never sent anyone out to talk to the owners. So the prior statements regarding the police are not true. As I mentioned my family was there, we witnessed their loud behavior and to answer the question in a prior review as to "If they were so bad why weren't they told to leave?" It might help to know that on Sunday night we over heard the owners trying to talk to them, and when the owners said something about evicting them, the campers response was something to the effect of; you can't kick us out, we've been drinking and can't drive. This admission from them explains a lot of what was really going on. If they were drinking, their memory is most likely cloudy and skewed regarding the events of the weekend. This confirms my first thoughts which are that the large group of people we saw there, who were loud and disruptive, are trying to bad mouth a nice place. It is my families first choice in campgrounds, the bathrooms are always clean and there is always something for my kids to do. I would continue to go there with out any concerns. The staff has always been very helpful and friendly. We will continue to go and recommend this campground to any family. We camped there in a travel trailer. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

My family also camped at this campground on Labor Day weekend. I wanted to say that we did see the terrible treatment some campers experienced that weekend. We also were camped near this couple that says they were harrassed by the guard. We witnessed it, especially on the couples last night there. We also noticed on all the nights that we were there the guard watching this family thru the bushes near the guard house. My family found it quite disturbing to say the least. Our family on all the nights we were there never once heard any loud talking or noise coming from the campsite that was singled out. The only noise we heard were dogs barking all hours of the night and car alarms going off during the night. On the last night we even tried to speak to the owner about things and we were told they didn't want to hear anything and to go back to our campsite now!!! I have a good question though, if this campsite that these people were on was so noisy why were they not kicked out?! I also found out by contacting the local police department in Baraboo and telling them what I witnessed that this was indeed stalking and harrassment that these people went thru. I also found out that the police department detective went to the campground and spoke to them about it. My family will never camp at this campground again after what we witnessed that weekend. It is a shame cause this campground really could be nice. I also will NOT camp at a campground were your comments and complaints are not even listened to. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Our family was there Labor Day weekend as well and we defineately did not see the conditions you are claiming. Nor the "evil" staff members either. We were camping in the same area as you were and have a different view of what happened. There were times that the noise level at night was a little much for us. We were not the only ones who felt this way. I don't think that the security staff or the campground owner would single any one out if there was not a concern by surrounding sites. After all there were a lot of other guests there besides your sites. However I do commend a campground that enforces a "quiet time " policy. In fact it is one of the main reasons we have continued to return to this campground. A family atmosphere is what they have always provided. I am all for people having a good time but respect for the campground and the other guests has always been a concern for me when we visiting different areas. I have never had to worry about that at this campground. I think you need to look at the definition of the word "stalking" in the dictionary. You may have it confused with the enforcement of campground policies. It is a shame that your experience was not a good one. I don't think, however that it was the fault of the Campground authorities. We have been camping here for several years and I am sorry but we strongly disagree with what you have claimed. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is an excellent campground. The campground is beautiful and well maintained with level sites. The owners and employees were extremely friendly and helpful. When you buy firewood from them they will even deliver it to your site. The bathroom and showers were neat and clean. This is truly a family campground. Our children had an excellent time renting pedal carts, using the pool, playing on the large play ground and using equipment from the free sports shop. The complete time we there our children always had something to do. Great place to camp and we will be going back again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

My family and I have camped at this campground several times over the last five years. We have never had or seen a problem as you have described. The reason we go, and will continue to go there is because it is clean, quiet and very family oriented. I feel that this campground caters to the family more than any of the others that we have been to that are in the Baraboo, Wisconsin Dells area. The only exception for us was this past Labor Day weekend in 2003. The same time you said someone in your group was there. If you look on their map they have 157 sites. You say there were 10 families who had a problem. My guess is that is is not 10 individual families, but one group of people that were in 10 different sites that were there together. It seemed to me that none of you bothered to think about the other sites around you, like my family. Quiet time starts at 10:30 p.m. and these people seemed to forget that there are certain rules that apply to ALL of the guests. On more than one evening you were up and were loud, whether you care to realize that or admit it. If we were bothered by it I am sure others were. But enough about you. As I mentioned before this campground is extremely family oriented. In fact the owners have gone out of their way, every year, by constantly making improvements on the campground facilities as well as offering new activities for the kids. What other campground offers free bike rental, free mini-putt golf and free rental of other sports equipment. Crafts and movies for the kids in the brand new pavillion were new additions this year. Other campgrounds that we have visited over the years seem to nickel and dime you every time you turn around just to keep your kids busy. Every time we camp here they have always given us information on where to get the best discount tickets for the Wisconsin Dells attractions so we can save a few dollars. We have always experienced a friendly and helpful staff not like the one you have described. I stake my five years of experience against what you have claimed. We already have reservations booked for next year. This campground gets a perfect 10. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I am 36 years old and have been camping since I was a child. My family decided to have a family camping trip this year over labor day weekend. We decided on this campground since we had never camped there before. I must say it is a unanimous family decision that we will never stay there again either. This was by far the worst camping trip I have ever experienced. In total, my family reserved 10 campsites and we all at times were in each other's sites. (this is the way camping has always been) My brother and his family had a site directly across from the guard house at the entrance to the campground. Beginning on the first night, my brother and anyone in his site were continually harassed by the guard. Camping is suppose to be a fun family experience when people are allowed to relax and let loose a little. According to this campground, fun apparently is not allowed. We were told we could only whisper around the campfire. I'm sorry, but I don't know any family that whispers around a campfire. My family understands quiet time, but the rules stated to keep noise within your camp site. If the guard would not have constantly been standing outside my brother's site, there wouldn't have been a problem. On two occasions, members of our family who were going to my brother's site to visit spotted the guard hiding behind the guard house spying on my brother. If this isn't stalking and harassment, I don't know what is. On the morning of checkout, my brother and his wife had several other campers from around them stop by to say they should not have been treated the way they were. This truly was the most horrible campground I have ever stayed at. In all fairness, it isn't the campground itself just the management that runs it. I would not recommend this campground nor will I ever camp there again. (unless there is a change in management)If you intend on staying here, my advice is to stay only if you don't intend on enjoying your stay. We camped here in a Campground Cabins.

I would like to greatly express my concerns for anyone with children/grandchildren. My experience at Baraboo Hills camping grounds were nothing but threating. We have been camping since I was very young. I expressed to the children that camping is a time for family and friends. However this camp ground was nothing like anything I have ever seen before. I witnessed on numerous occasions harassment aganist my brother and his family (mind you my brother is the quiet one in the family). The guard was loud and inconsiderate when talking to my brother and his wife which woke my grandchildren up. I visited his site all three nights we were there. On Sunday night a man was continuously walking past my brother's site stopping by his truck watching, then by the bushes. I watched him pass numerous times (four both ways). I felt threatened to the fact that my family was being stalked. I expressed that some pervert was watching us. He rushed over to explain he was the manager. I do not care who he is -no person has any right to make another feel threatened in any way shape or form to a point where you feel for your families safety. This was the start of a long night. Confronted by management, she was rude, disrespectful, inconsiderate, and opinionated. I expressed my concern for the family, they did not care. So from my view this camping trip was nothing to say but frightening. The feeling of being stalked and threatened are not a part of camping. I explained to my children that camping was a time for family and friend to come together and enjoy the company of one another, meeting people from all over the world, talking at the fire, enjoy the smell of God's country - this was still a safe event to do with out harm. How do I explain this to my child!!! However the camp ground does have a lot to offer for families. If you sleep before 10:30p.m. and can only talk at a whisper within your site you may like this campground. Do not cross the guard or camp next to the guard house. Thank you for listening to me!! God Bless and be Safe We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

They seem to signal out certain parties to harass. There was a young couple near our cabin, who every night, they would peek through the bushes or hide in the stop house right by them, and as soon as it was quiet time the Park Ranger would enter their campsite and tell them to be quiet, when campers all around them had campfires going, playing cards and laughing. When the owners were called they were very rude, would not listen to any other complaints from others. I felt that they were being stalked and treated rudely. I thought their campsite was the quietest. We camped here in a Campground Cabins.

Management was very bad. Seemed to like harassing people. When we were there they picked one couple with 2 children. Just on them about making noise. Did not hear the family in fact we thought they were in bed.Management did this for 3 nights. If it was me I would of left. Management not willing to listen to there customers, only taking there money. Will not ever go there again also would not recommend it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is the most awful campground!! We were constantly harrassed and stalked by the night guard and then harrassed and stalked by the owners. We were told we could only whisper around the campfire at night. Staff and owners extremely rude and also would not listen to other campers complaints or concerns. We have camped all over and even out of the country and NEVER been so harrassed and treated so rude!! Because of this awful experience our children no longer feel safe camping!! Was not a good camping experience when you have people who work and own the campground peeping thru the bushes at you at night and who are constantly telling you at night that you must whisper around the campfire!!! Will NOT recommend this campground to no one!!!! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
