Finally A Farm

35mi from Wisconsin Dells · 4 sites · Tents, RVs · Richland Center, WI
The original log cabin is still part of the farmstead that originated back in the 1880's. The site was a family farm until around the 1940s. Also, the land was the Eastern banks of a large logging mill lake/pond 150 yrs ago, so the shoreline slopes do not allow campers in/out of the pasture areas. A popup would be feasible with a full size 4 wheel drive utility vehicle in river bottom/shorelines. Tents /Low impact camping are best. In 2019 a transition to Animal Therapy, Fishing Therapy, and Pastured pigs from New Zealand which originally were almost extinct because of their friendly nosey nature at times gets them into trouble. They graze on open pasture most of the year and rest in the sun next to a trout stream. Learn more about this land: We are a working farm with mostly rescued farm animals. Many of the animals have special needs here and live their lives as free-range animals. The river in the back is home to wonderful Brown Trout and smallmouth bass. Also at times, there will be a couple dogs being trained and worked with too. You select your location for your primitive camping experience. If any special needs for a person arise, such as cane, charcoal grill, camp lantern We keep a small shed with supplies even items like tarps, cots, sleeping bags, even fishing rods. The owner is a highly achieved angler that has been filmed for the "Discover Wisconsin" Television TV show. and is available for guided fishing adventures and education in the area for all species. Also, certain times of the year are excellent for wild plants and mushroom foraging. Note this is the Driftless area of Wisc. where no glaciers came through. We have bluffs and streams around every curve of the road. The Wisc. Rivers very close too and has great fishing as well. The neighbor of this farm also rents and performs livery service for kayaks, canoes on the Pine River. Many times of the year, fresh meats are sold right at the farm as well as homemade fishing lures ready for fishing adventures. Note: Many times I am at the river fishing or in the pasture planting and reforesting this former GMO corn farm after years of heavy spraying. With Maples, Willows, apple, pear, plum, oak while trying to manage the evasive plants too. Please understand rainfall, safety of small rivers/waterfront changes. If river front takes on water, camping is all moved from water edges. We do not allow any camper over 15 feet and you must have vehicle that can get through wet mowed fields if it rains since we are along a river/wet lands, if it were to rain we move vehicles to higher dry ground if they a low to the ground . We have a gentle sloped hillside here so always dry areas to park. Other vehicles park at the top of the pasture, in farm front yard and we transport all gear to the river front. Small low to the ground cars are not wise here as there are 4 rain water trenches in the bottom 10 acres the keep rain water draining to ward the river.

Finally A Farm

35mi from Wisconsin Dells · 4 sites · Tents, RVs · Richland Center, WI
The original log cabin is still part of the farmstead that originated back in the 1880's. The site was a family farm until around the 1940s. Also, the land was the Eastern banks of a large logging mill lake/pond 150 yrs ago, so the shoreline slopes do not allow campers in/out of the pasture areas. A popup would be feasible with a full size 4 wheel drive utility vehicle in river bottom/shorelines. Tents /Low impact camping are best. In 2019 a transition to Animal Therapy, Fishing Therapy, and Pastured pigs from New Zealand which originally were almost extinct because of their friendly nosey nature at times gets them into trouble. They graze on open pasture most of the year and rest in the sun next to a trout stream. Learn more about this land: We are a working farm with mostly rescued farm animals. Many of the animals have special needs here and live their lives as free-range animals. The river in the back is home to wonderful Brown Trout and smallmouth bass. Also at times, there will be a couple dogs being trained and worked with too. You select your location for your primitive camping experience. If any special needs for a person arise, such as cane, charcoal grill, camp lantern We keep a small shed with supplies even items like tarps, cots, sleeping bags, even fishing rods. The owner is a highly achieved angler that has been filmed for the "Discover Wisconsin" Television TV show. and is available for guided fishing adventures and education in the area for all species. Also, certain times of the year are excellent for wild plants and mushroom foraging. Note this is the Driftless area of Wisc. where no glaciers came through. We have bluffs and streams around every curve of the road. The Wisc. Rivers very close too and has great fishing as well. The neighbor of this farm also rents and performs livery service for kayaks, canoes on the Pine River. Many times of the year, fresh meats are sold right at the farm as well as homemade fishing lures ready for fishing adventures. Note: Many times I am at the river fishing or in the pasture planting and reforesting this former GMO corn farm after years of heavy spraying. With Maples, Willows, apple, pear, plum, oak while trying to manage the evasive plants too. Please understand rainfall, safety of small rivers/waterfront changes. If river front takes on water, camping is all moved from water edges. We do not allow any camper over 15 feet and you must have vehicle that can get through wet mowed fields if it rains since we are along a river/wet lands, if it were to rain we move vehicles to higher dry ground if they a low to the ground . We have a gentle sloped hillside here so always dry areas to park. Other vehicles park at the top of the pasture, in farm front yard and we transport all gear to the river front. Small low to the ground cars are not wise here as there are 4 rain water trenches in the bottom 10 acres the keep rain water draining to ward the river.

Where to go

Rocky Arbor State Park

Just north of Wisconsin Dells, Rocky Arbor State Park offers a secluded camping experience minutes away from the area’s famous waterparks. In the park, campers can find wooded campsites, some with full RV hookups with 30-amp or 50-amp service, plus public showers, toilets, and a sanitary dump station on-site. Surrounded by sandstone bluffs and pine trees, the campsites offer easy access to a network of hiking trails through the 144-acre park. On the other side of the Wisconsin River, find the Dells of the Wisconsin River State Natural Area, which invites boaters to take in the remarkable Cambria sandstone cliffs and rock formations along the gorge.

Mirror Lake State Park

Famed for its still waters, Mirror Lake is a popular camping destination, especially when its fall foliage is reflected in the water. There are two boat landings on the lake, with canoe rentals near the state park’s concessions. A swimming beach with vault toilets is popular in summer, while forested campsites with fire rings, picnic tables, and sand tent camping pads are available year-round. While many facilities like shower buildings close during winter though. However, snowshoeing along Sandstone Trail, Pulpit Rock Trail, and Wild Rice Trail is a common winter activity.

Roche-A-Cri State Park

Head to Roche-A-Cri State Park about 30 miles north of town to visit a remarkable flat-topped and cliff-sided rock island that rises 300-feet above the surrounding central sands plain. Explore the base on the southern face of the rock to view early Native American petroglyphs and pictographs, some of which are estimated to be over 1,100 years old. The rustic family campground is open from late spring to early fall, with a variety of electric campsites, walk-in tent campsites, and pull-thru RV campsites for travel trailers. Drinking water fountains and restrooms with vault toilets are also available.

When to go

The most popular time of year for camping near Wisconsin Dells is summer. Many of the public Wisconsin Dells campgrounds are only open seasonally, from late spring to early fall, though some are open year-round with limited facilities. Some private RV parks with wifi, game rooms, and swimming pools operate year-round, as well. The warmer, sunny weather with highs around 82°F draws crowds to the area’s famous waterparks, plus outdoor water activities in lakes and rivers. Camp in winter for a quieter experience surrounded by peaceful, snow-covered landscapes, plus access to year-round indoor waterparks.
