High Cliff State Park

Tips for Snagging a Campsite Reservation

1. You can reserve one of the 112 RV/tent sites at High Cliff State Campground via the Wisconsin State Park website. 
2. Campsite reservations open 11 months in advance. There is a minimum 3-day booking for holiday weekends and a minimum 2-day stay from May 15 through the end of October.
3. Campsites book up fast on summer and holiday weekends. Book a minimum of three months in advance to avoid disappointment.

When to Go

High Cliff State Park draws visitors through all four seasons. Come in summer to swim and enjoy water sports, in fall to hike through the forests and admire the changing foliage, or in winter to snowshoe, snowmobile, and cross-country ski. Camping is possible year-round.
