The bathhouses are at the entrance end of the campground so the further in your site is the longer your walk to the showers. The sign in the restrooms stated that they are cleaned on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. By Wednesday they were in desperate need of cleaning. Most of the fixtures were rusty. The shower curtains in the men's showers were mildewed. The curtains in the women's showers looked like they had recently been replaced. There are no sewer hookups, but a honey wagon runs two days a week. We had a site on the river which was nice. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Interesting park on an long narrow island in the Mississippi River. Most sites well shaded, park well kept, most waterfront sites are seasonal rentals but since the park is so narrow, the river is never far away. The beach is very small and weedy. No highway noise but when we were there there was a very loud rock concert in the park across the street. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The resort is on an island in the middle of the Mississippi River with great views of the river for a short distance. Our site was a back-in site with a view of the main part of the river out of the back kitchen window. Only problem here was that the campground map said the sites on that section of the park were 50 amp, but when I got backed in and set up, I only had 30 amp service. The campground is a long drive through town off the interstate. When leaving, there was construction on the Minnesota side of the river that had some confusing signs. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We loved this beautiful park. The sites are spacious and the views were beautiful, especially in the fall. It is an easy walk or bike ride into town. We will definitely return, next time with our small boat. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I really enjoyed this park. I extended my stay to 4 nights. The office staff were very nice and helpful, there is an RV sales and repair place on site as well as bar and campground store. There isn't a bad site, all have a view of the river and both outside rows have frontage of the main Mississippi or the bay which allows you to moor a boat. Of course, the LaCrosse area is great for sightseeing. Both historical sites and scenery are supurb. Shopping is excellent. I would recommend this park to everyone. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
What a lovely campground! We stayed for 3 days and will definitely go back. The city is readily accessible to the campground but traffic noise is minimal. We will definitely go back! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great place for an overnight stay (or longer). Right on the Mississippi River, level sites, clean park. Staff was wonderful about accommodating our late check-in time. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
What a nice campground! We camped here and attended an airshow, it made a nice base of opperations for us. Lots of shade trees, most sites were on the water. Sites in the 600's might be a little loud due to proximity to the bridge. Very secure with a gate and keypad access after hours. Nice playground for the kids, did not check out the beach. We will definitly go back and visit again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Beautiful campground located on an island in the Mississippi River. Except for the understandable lack of sewer connections, and the commercial aspect of the area, we would have rated it much higher. Personable folks running the campground, and sites were clean and easy to get into with large fifth wheel. Some sites had concrete "runners" for the unit, which made leveling a "snap".
