Awesome location!!
Really awesome location! Super easy to find but felt secluded. I ended up finding a bunch of ticks on my dog once in the tent but that’s basically anywhere in WI right now. Overall really great site, just be aware of the ticks (:

It was a little hard to find at first, but when we did, it worked out great! We would definitely come back again.

Beautifully scenic spot!
We had an incredible time! The site is beautiful, the sunrises did not disappoint, the fish were basically flying out of the water, we all got to swim, and the host, Mark, was so helpful when we accidentally didn’t book the right number of days. We really appreciated the communication and flexibility he showed us. 20/10 would definitely recommend!

Nice spot but needs love
PROS
Campsite was nice and scenic. Very quiet at night. We were able to fit a van with a rooftop tent and enjoyed the quite tranquility and solitude of the site on the Wisconsin river.
CONS
There is no toilet available unless you count the public portapotties at the boat launch a half mile walk away.
Finally, it looks like the site hadn’t been maintained in a while. Several trash bags were left from the last campers in addition to some litter. Fire pit is located next to dead plants, trees, and dried brush. In my opinion, it is one negligent camper away from a potentially serious fire.
NOTES
Directions on Hipcamp were incorrect. When you get to the boat launch (which is what the coordinates provided take you too) call the host. The site is actually down the road about a half mile. For the sake of keeping it private, I won’t provide the directions.

Not private but good location
The spot is right on the river and has great views. However, it’s only about 20 yards off the road meaning there’s a fair amount of cars/UTV going by. I tried to contact the host to potentially move in the checkin time but no response. Unlike the property description there is no toilet or garbage so be prepared. Also no grate over the fire pit. There is water access it but it is very steep to get to.

Absolutely loved it! Gorgeous view overlooking the river and we were fortunate enough to happen to be there with a nearly full moon which was reflected off the river. Tucked away off to the side of the street with barely any traffic and our dogs loved to be able to free roam without any complications.
