Beautiful well kept wooded campground. The beach wasn’t huge but well kept and adequate, nicely separated from the fishing docks and boat launch. Public areas were clean. Big play areas for the kids and things to engage them. We did not use the kayak or paddle board rentals but they are available with life jackets. My rig is 33 feet long and fit easily in #5.
We loved our stay at Wildwood Campground and will definitely be back! We booked site 1 which was close to the bathrooms and docks and small beach area. The campground is nice and small and very peaceful. Very close to State Parks and other places for adventure. Would recommend.
10-2-25, I stayed in the stargazer yurt and it was remarkable. Flawless check-in and perfect spot. The yurt is about 150 yards from the lake and secluded. A fire pit, two beds and a couch. Rocky my hound enjoyed his rest on his pillow bed.
We had a tent site in mid September and it was wonderfully peaceful. It was remote but we still had access to running water, bathrooms and showers. The running water bathrooms only had one toilet and it was about a 3-5 minute walk from our site. Though it seems portapotties are normally closer, because it was off season they weren't there. So this was a little disappointing for any late night bathrooms needs. The office was also rarely open during our stay so keep this in mind when planning. I also recommend a sleeping pad of some sort if you tent because the tent spots seemed to be all gravel. The place was close to Copper falls state park and a great disc golf complex! We also got incredible stargazing in with a telescope.
This was our 1st time camping there. It was wonderful. Quiet, right by the lake. It was too cool to swim, but we would have if the weather was warmer. Awsome place for star gazing, even though we had a few clouds. Everywhere we went in the area was beautiful. We would love to return. Multiple people there said the same thing!
Hi Rebecca! Your campground is amazing and you are amazing as well! You put your heart and soul into that campground and it truly shows. I would be so proud of that place if I were you! The lakefront and the sunsets are truly incredible! Such a relaxing atmosphere. We will return without a doubt! See you sometime in 2026!
We stayed in the Loon's Nest Cabin which is right by the lake. The site was wonderful. The campground is super quiet and dark at night, which was refreshing. Even though the weather was rainy and cool, we were still able to enjoy a sunset on the beach. A great place to stay!
We loved our stay here! Our campsite was right on the lake, the swimming beach was was a perfect spot to relax, and the bathroom was clean and well maintained. The campground has many great spots to stay as well as a few cabins. The lake is quiet and beautiful, a great spot for paddleboarding. They are very dog friendly and we knew exactly what was expected of us during our stay. We will definitely be back!
