An oasis of gardens and meadows that has become my personal sanctuary. My hopes are that visitors enjoy all aspects of my property as much as I do. Learn more about this land: You can choose to set up camp in the meadow or near the gardens. In the meadow you will find paths that you can stroll through throughout the property where you can you bird watch and observe Wisconsin's natural prairie and vegetation. The open field area provides more room whether it's to throw a frisbee, bask in the sun or play some competitive yard games with your family and friends. Regardless of where you set up camp, you can enjoy your morning coffee in the secret flower garden or a nightcap next to the fire under the grape covered arbor while watching the night stars. Feeling adventurous? The Ahnapee trail is an old railroad trail that is now a hiking and biking path that extends from Sturgeon Bay to Kewaunee. The Ahnapee Trail is 1.5 miles down the road. Also located within miles is the Ahnapee River, which is ideal for canoeing and kayaking.

From the outdoor shower to the walking trails that weave through the woods and over Tibbet Creek you will love your stay! A couple of the sites are more remote than others by design. Not all can be driven up to. The furthest would be approximately a 500’ walk. A wagon is available to carry your items to your site. There is a large pond if you would like to fish or swim, and a John boat and a paddle boat to use also. Each site has its own fire pit with a cooking grate. Firewood available for purchase on site. Most sites are set with views of a water feature. Some tents are available to rent if you don’t have your own.

The best camping in Potawatomi State Park, WI guide

Overview

About

Acrophobics beware! You might not want to climb the 75-foot observation tower in Potawatomi State Park! But for the rest of us, this massive tower peaks above the canopy of the trees and gives stellar views across Green Bay. Where else can you climb 75 feet in the middle of the forest?! But if you’d rather keep your two feet on the ground, there are plenty of activities for you at Potawatomi State Park, too. For all day fun-in-the-sun, rent a kayak or canoe and hit the waters of Green Bay where you can observe Scuba divers and water skiers. Join in the elevated (or not) fun!

When to go

The best times to visit Potawatomi State Park are during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its peak. Summer offers warm days perfect for exploring, though it's also the busiest season. Winters can be harsh, with some areas less accessible, but provide a quiet, snowy retreat for those seeking solitude.
