This is a heavily used campground being close to Madison. We had some trouble to find a spot for our 32 foot 5th wheel and tow vehicle. The ranger had a funny policy of find your site and then go back and see if it had been reserved. Not far from the Blue Mounds cave which is just ok, but do go see the Mustard Museum in Mt Hoerb, and the Artisian Gallery there. A trip to the Norweigian place is neat too. This campgrounds is a good place for smaller RVs and tents. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We absolutely loved this park. The campsites are so surrounded by trees and vegetation that you can barely tell that you are camping next to someone. You could barely tell that the campsites next to you had a campfire. The restrooms were extremely clean even in the busy part of the weekend. We did the junior ranger program with our 5 year old (this is a Wisconsin State Park thing). He is still talking about it months later! We geocached all over the park (see geocaching.com for more info on this) We swam in the nice pool and went on a couple of guided hikes. Than there was a lefsa making demonstration in the amphitheater (I'm norwegian!) yea!! Overall one of our best camping experiences! The park is gorgeous with its 2 lookout towers and many trails. Our only trouble was with the friendly racoons that wanted to steel our food! Site number 6 was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT with young kids because the playground was right there next to you! We camped here in a Tent.

This is part of the Wisconsin DNR state park system. They have over 1100 acres on the highest hill in southeastern Wisconsin. The camping itself is not all the way on top of the hill, so don't worry about driving up. The campsites were so far apart and wooded that I couldn't even see the people on either side of us. Because of the trees we had to do a bit of positioning before we found a spot that would allow the slide on one side and the awning on the other, but it worked out. There are 40 foot high lookout towers on the East and West sides of the park and the view are outstanding. They also have a pool and playground areas. If you are staying here be sure to visit Cave of the Mounds a few miles away; they have a very cool tour down into the cave and an area where the kids can pan for gemstones outside. We camped here in a Motorhome.
