Customer Reviews
The 8-site national forest campground here was closed in 2015 due to budget shortfalls. It has sat largely untouched since, along with six of its peer campgrounds across the Chequamegon Nicolet that were shuttered that same year. More recent plans call for removal of the campground’s infrastructure in the very near future, despite a presently thriving recreation economy across the state. In the years since closing, no local or state partner has stepped forward to maintain the campground, and the forest service does not wish to run the facility themselves. A boat landing and fishing pier remain available for use at the lakeshore. The shoreline appears swimmable, though isn’t formally maintained as a beach since the campground closed. A well-maintained town park sits immediately adjace
Area is closed. Not to reopen from what it appears
