Very nice, quiet family campground. It's close enough to Wis. Dells to make an easy day trip, but far enough away to be well outside the Dells craziness. Lots for the kids to do with a nice pool, fishing pond and lake, canoe and kayak rentals, bike rentals, game room. The sites are great size, the pull thru's are convenient but still have lots of space and feel fairly private. Good water pressure. Bring DVD's as the over the air TV signal was weak. - Mudpuppy78

This campground is about 5 miles from the Wisconsin Dells right along a very active train line. Although the trains come through every hour or so, after awhile you forget about them until the 12:05 am one! While they say they have sewer, water, electric sites, there are only three available, all the rest are seasonal. So all the rest have to use the dump station for an extra $5.00. Why they don't build the $5 into the daily rate is confusing. Also, they charge $10 for vistors, all vistors, large & small. This campground has had the current owner for 9 years. There have been a couple of improvments made, such as a very nice swimming pool and beverage center (bar) and the paving of the main circle drive. The trees along the main circle have not been trimmed and dragged along the roof and the sides of our motorhome all the way around, I was told that they are going to trim them soon. More work is needed in the bath house. The showers have great pressure and lots of hot water but are old and grimy. Floor is bare concrete and uneven. Sites are all on grass covered stones. We stayed on Memorial Day weekend, the week leading up to it, this area had quite a bit of rain and our sites and most others were soft and muddy. Lots of trees so if you have a satellite you may have to work to get a good signal. We will not go back since there are lots of other campgrounds in the area. - Sugar's Dad

I had to double-check to make sure this was the same park that got 9's in 2009 and 2006. Good grief. $39 for a mud site, bad-tasting water, no Wi-Fi, no cable, no sewer at pull-through sites, $5 dump fee, and an hourly freight train whistle blast from 6:30 am until 10 at night. Trees need trimming for big rig access. Definitely won't stay here again. - OliveOil

The space was extremely small with trees on both sides. When we tried to leave, the road was so small and cars and golf carts were parked on both sides, along with trees on both sides, that we scratched up the driver's side of the coach. I had to get out of the coach to direct my husband so he didn't hit anything. We were just inches away. These were permanent sites and no one was home to move cars. They were installing a park model so we could not turn to the right where the road might have been slightly wider. My suggestion is do not go with a big Motorhome. The park needs to remove or severely cut back the trees on the corners and sides ofthe roads. - RVPeg

This place is almost entirely seasonal campers, with the regulars zipping around on golf carts, beer cans in hand, and us "outsiders" crammed in a dusty row and forced to wear wristbands to identify ourselves. And even though River Bay is miles from the off ramp, it's still very near the interstate so there's a lot of highway noise. For us, it was a disappointment and we got a refund for the second night and left early. They were nice about that. There were a lot of seasonal campers, so the park must be doing something right. But for us full-time RVers, it didn't work. - chrisdensmore

We rented a buddy site that was to provide space for two families at $44/night each; a total of $88/night for the site. The space was entirely too small. With one 32' motorhome, a tent and two vehicles we could barely walk around. Branches were not cut back so we had had to do our own cutting or risk scraping our motorhome. The sites were on top of each other and the entire campground was packed. Lots of young adults, loud radios, horns honking and a raceway close enough that you got to hear the stock car races as if you were there. Additionally, there were young teens racing around on golf carts making the roads treacherous. Lastly, there was karaoke every night at the Tiki bar. Quiet hours are supposed to be at 11:00pm, however they played late every night. In fact, on our last night, a staff member came around to "ask" us if it was OK if they continued until 2:00am, breaking their own quiet hour rule. When we communicated that we had small children and that they would have a hard time sleeping he said, "Well, just come over if it's too loud." It was entirely obvious he didn't really care and wasn't really asking, but rather informing us of his decision to bend the camp rules to benefit him. It was so noisy that we could not talk to each other around the campfire without seriously raising our voices. The campground is mainly seasonal and year round residents. Lots of trailers with built on sun rooms and decks. Pool was clean, showers were marginally clean. Customer service was adequate. They did show us to our site. There is a nice park for the kids. We will not stay here again. - Happytrailsgal

Very nice, secluded spot that we were in. There were some nice features that the park offered (movie theater in the field, free swimming pool w/ kid's pool, $1 "train" ride for the kids, digger's site for the kids (which also cost money, but I'm not sure the amount for a weekend pass)). The park owner and staff was very friendly, and their store was fully stocked which was nice (since we forgot a thing or two). There were even a couple some extra activities available since we were here for 4th of July weekend. In addition, you're only a few miles from the Wisconsin Dells. - joshnichols84

We stayed under our Encore discount. This is a nice place, but has n sewer. There is a dump station. W/E only, although we had 50 amp. We were able to get satellite and good Verizon. A bit of a drive to Wisconsin Dells, but doable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They have a fresh doughnuts on Fri, Sat, Sun which were very good. There is a fish fry on Sat. evening which was very good, with choice of fish or shrimp. There is a swimming pool, fishing pond, and miniature golf. Playground for kids. We would stay here again when in the area. - Deniselg53

This is a clean, family-friendly, rustic park within 10 minutes of Wisconsin Dells attractions. It is suitable for big rigs, but pre-plan your route through the park to avoid getting in tight situations. Sites are spacious and level. The heated pool, kiddie splash pad, playground and mini-golf made it a nice place to bring the grandkids. - USA-RVNomads

This was the most expensive campground of any we stayed in over a two week trip. We found it in a large advertisement in a Wisconsin campground book from a visitor center. We hadn't read any reviews since our stop was spur of the oment and we had no mobile data service to research. Had we, this might not have been a place we'd stop. Most definitely this is a place for children's entertainment and is more than 50% seasonal folks. Most of the children's stuff seemed shut down for the season. We were placed in a short spot by the bathhouse. The sites are so close, the house, yes house, window behind us looked directly into our back window, just a few feet away. No privacy at all. We were put on the edge of the seasonal section and the folks who are there don't stick to the park's quiet hours. I'm not talking kids, but adults who talked and laughed loudly until midnight at least. We heard a train a few times. Luckily, there were no auto races being run nearby or no telling how late quiet hours might have begun. But, in the morning light, I realized they'd placed us on a site near the bathhouse for our convenience. The bathhouse was quite nice and clean. Our short motorhome did fit on the short gravel/dirt site. We had full hookups and cable TV, though a good portion of the stations still came in snowy, not all watchable. The interior roads, though bumpy and dirt, accommodated our small rig just fine. I like the security gate system as well. I think we might have found something flatter and less oriented toward children had we planned better but the folks here treated us well and were very friendly and kind. Their campground is clean and certainly has every kind of entertainment to be had for families with little ones - in season, of course. The fact that we were near the center of the Dells with easy access in made the location a good one as well. This was an ok stop. - khorne

Rate is for full hook-ups. Tidy park with large sites and easy big rig access. We arrived fairly late in the afternoon on a weekday during the off season so the office was closed, but there was an intercom to access the office, which quickly provided someone to check us in. The lady who assisted us was very friendly, we were given a lovely site and enjoyed a walk of the grounds. While a number of the amenities were closed, it was apparent this park has lots of activities to amuse families during the regular season and we were told if we wanted to use anything, just to ask and it would be opened for us. Prior reviews have complained about noise from a nearby racetrack but we didn't find it to be a problem. We would stay here again without hesitation. - Pec50

Check-in was a breeze with the very helpful staff. They helped us park our 42 ft. rig in a lovely back-in site. Loads of trees and privacy: quite pastoral. They pick up trash at your site twice a day: good! The pool is quite nice and the library quite good, though it was located in a dark room used for movies. The only real detractor here is the very loud racetrack next door. Seems there are no noise restrictions, and there surely should be. Not the campground's fault though, but it's hard to believe they get much repeat business. Roads are pretty narrow, though, and some sites look rather overloaded. Overall, a nice place despite the noisy neighbors! - Brunolove

The rate is misleading. I paid $29.99 for electric only but the casino added an almost $10 tax which, according to the hotel staff, is specific to that casino. It's not a state tax or a hotel tax, it's simply an extra $10. It's a clean park but no trees. Great grassy "lane" for the dogs to run though. - Dibromin

What a nice place to stay. The spaces are not close and there is a fire pit (really nice one), and a really nice picnic table. It's paved and the pull through was long. We received a key card for the rest rooms and pool at the hotel. Frequent security came through. Lots of green grass and places to walk the dog. I would give them a 10 if there was a fenced dog area. The Casino is very nice and their buffet is a great bargain. - Newbet

NEW NAME, now called HO CHUNK RV CAMPING RESORT. Big beautiful sites, boat launch to WI River, great hiking and golf cart trails. Nice clean pool. Very limited amount of items in the camp store currently. They have been redoing things. Under new management. Owned by the HO CHUNK NATION. - Wi/Fl Van

An old orchard converted to camping. Scenic. 2 miles from The Wisconsin Dells area. Large seasonal park in the back, large tent and pop-up area, and tighter RV trailer, fifth wheel and big rig area. Must come in back way from I90, as main entry from Hwy 12 has a RR crossing bridge with 12'2' clearance. Do not know if this has been a wetter than normal season; standing water everywhere and mass quantities of mosquitos. My site had hill wash runoff, making for uneven and soft base sand for set up. Overall disappointed in our site B7 as it was on a hill at junction of three roads in the park, and there were several other sites I could have had for just one night. - Mike from Bama

Check-in was quick, we had a reservation. Local maps, discount coupons and advertising brochures from Dells are available. Pool and patio area are excellent, lots of tables, sun chairs, and a gazebo. Large pool but no slide. Sites are good size, flat and not too crowded. Rest rooms are beautiful tile and clean. Showers are individual rooms with small table, rubber mat, nice tile. No exhaust fan though. - charger1970rt

Had full hookup site and were pleased except that the sewer hookup was not in a good spot for our camper. Park was very clean and quiet. Staff was friendly and helpful. Didn't use the camp store but looked nice. Will stay here again if the opportunity arises. - NINA W

The things that makes this place great start with the pool area. It is one of the nicest outdoor pool areas I have ever been in. It was clean and consisted of two areas. One that was a deep pool for jumping in and one that was shallow to allow kids a place to play. The site we had was OK; I have been in a better site as far as a level place to park . I will mention that a large portion of this campground are for seasonals. Though all of the seasonal campers were all friendly.

The campground also have a lot of activities but most of them are pay to play. Mini golf, shuffle board, and many of the scheduled events also have a price tag attached such as the morning Zumba. They have some free events as well such a wagon ride that they call a hay ride and on the weekends they play a family movie on the outdoor screen they have.

The showers and the bathrooms were clean. The showers are pay to use but at 25 cents for 5 minutes are fairly reasonable. They also have a game room with video games, pool table and air hockey. This is also located in the camp store that has all kinds of stuff.

They also have a soccer field, a beach volleyball setup, basketball courts, tennis courts, horseshoe pits, and a playground. The playground is very dated and would be one of the huge negatives to this place. Several of the pieces are in need of upgrades that include the climbing thing and the spinning merry go round. The merry go round barley spins even with an adult pushing.

Overall I have stayed in other parks that offer the activities free to people staying on site and don't charge for everything. They also generally have more updated playgrounds. Still they have a great pool area, friendly staff, and decent sites even if the pads are gravel and not always the most level. Still don't think any of those things would make you not want to stay here. - Schultefam

This is another campground that stretches the term "resort".....and they even charge a "resort fee" of $4 for every night's stay! On top of that, showers cost 25 cents for 5 minutes! The majority of the many sites are seasonals, but most of them are nicely kept. We knew our site would only have electricity and water for the PA rate, but when we got to our assigned site, the power box was at least 50 feet away! When we looked around, we noticed that all of the utilities were randomly placed, and most were not at all convenient. There were only a few sites that could accommodate us, and our unit is only 33 feet. Many are not level. All of the power boxes are shared. They let us move, but I would hate to be there on a weekend when there were no other choices of sites. If you reserve a site here, be prepared to use extension cords and/or multiple hoses. The wooded area is attractive, and the pools look nice. The people across from us had booked through Thousand Trails, and supposedly had a sewer site, but theirs did not. There were no other sites with sewer, so they left. I saw another reviewer on TripAdvisor tell the same story. Almost all the sewer sites are for permanents. - mom2wildlife

The good stuff - - Clean, nice and quiet except for some trains and a race track, pool area like brand new. Staff was great and helpful and washer/dryer worked perfect, close to the water parks. Shop sold milk, beer and other things, little pricey but ok selection, seasonal's very friendly. The bad stuff - - WiFi Internet was a joke. I prefer not working internet instead of extremely slow internet. Staff agreed but could not do anything. Verizon LTE works perfect though but more expensive. Water was very rusty so bring some extra filters. Occasional sewer smell but not often - BasilFawlty

Big rig friendly with level sites. We stayed in new part that had full hookups because most of the campground does not have sewer. No problem using our satellite. No dog park but lots of campground to walk dog. Showers and laundry were good. Swimming pool was good but was located beside bar and open to public. This made it very crowded on weekends. Campground was crowded and very noisy on weekends. Nice campground if you want to party. - Fulltimersrv

This is an adults only campground. We had a great time here! At the bar parking lot, there was a car show on Saturday and Sunday. Saturday nights car show was exceptional; because bikes, cars and trucks were all doing smokey burn-outs for over 3 hours with a crowd of over 500 people! The host was very nice and very hospitable. We had a pull through site with water and electric. our site was perfectly level. They have a dump site near the entrance. They list 86 sites; but they don't list how many additional tent sites are in there "group tent area". I estimate there are 24 tent sites in that area with 12 electric boxes and no water. The bar, showers, pool, campground all appears to be new so everything is in exceptional shape! The only low points were: the grass should have been cut and the site water was yellowish and cloudy all weekend. So bring your bottled water. Aside from that, we'll definitely go back soon. - thetonz

This was the first time at this campground. It is a privately owned campground with long term sites. It is nicely divided because of its large size. The second day we took a walk and discovered a new section of the park with a pool, jumping houses, laundry, arcade and more campsites. Do not miss ordering their donuts over the weekend. They are great. A lot of golf carts but not an issue because of the paved roads. Great place and look forward to coming back next year. - Rmeyer

Was a good time. Very family oriented. The floating toys on the lake are a blast! Had an issue with one employee, but not big enough to complain about. Will go again. - Will-i-am

We stayed at Holiday Shores for 4 nights over the last weekend of August 2015. We'd never stayed there but were looking forward to camping on the river near Wisconsin Dells in order to re-live our youth LOL. We had no problem finding the campground and check-in was a breeze. Very helpful with directions to the site, etc.

We had a bit of an issue getting our fifth wheel backed into the site because of the terracing of the rows of sites....there was a retaining wall directly in front of our site that made it tough to get around the trees without hitting the retaining wall. This was only an issue for our site (#3 on the river) as well as maybe one or two sites to the north. The others didn't have the wall in front and wouldn't have been a problem. But, after a couple of tries, I got the camper in place on a nice level gravel site. It was raining when we got there and didn't stop for another 12 hours (total of about 1.5" of rain fell). We thought we would wakeup to a pond, but it was not nearly as bad as we thought.

You can't beat the location of the campground - near the Dells, next to Chula Vista resort (you get up to 4 free passes to Chula Vista as part of your site) and this is the only area that you can venture out onto the beautiful sandstone along the river as this is adjacent to state property where that is not allowed. The marina and boat/jetski/canoe/kayak rental is great and there was a lot of activity in and around the resort but we were removed enough to enjoy a nice quiet weekend. Of course, a 5 minute drive into downtown Wisconsin Dells will give you EVERY possible activity you'd like.

The people here were very nice and helpful, the homemade donuts were awesome (as others have said) and we would definitely stay here again. It'll be on our list of annual places to visit. - Samron68

We have camped at Point Bluff annually since 2012, so this was our third visit. This is a small (17 total sites) campground on the Wisconsin River. As part of the larger property there is a permanent trailer park / summer camp on the other side of the clubhouse / bar. We have camped in site 1, 17 and 5. We prefer those along the river and away from the landing / beach, sites 3-8.

We camped in a truck camper twice and in a tent once. ONLY a tent camper can use site 17. It is up a steep slope that would be impossible to get a camper in, and the canoes/tubes often are staged on this hill on the weekend. Site 17 is a beautiful getaway site though with good access to the restrooms/shower house and the clubhouse. Sites 1-16 are located in a shady, grassy grove. The sites are not well-defined and you are fairly close to your neighbors. We were with a bunch of friends and this was not a problem for us.

People camp at Point Bluff so they can tube/canoe the Wisconsin River and come off the river and not have to drive. It is IDEAL for that purpose. There is a bar / clubhouse on site that serves food. There are group campsites. The campground area only has porta potties. The shower room / flush toilets are across the campgrounds and into the trailer park. The first year we were there, they were filthy and the toilets were clogged. This was due to those on the group site. The last two years the restrooms have been much cleaner. - We_love_truck_camping
