Consolidate your things into a bucket or small wagon because you have to walk a ways to set up camp. This is great because you even get away from your car, but if you bring a lot and don't have a way to haul it in, you'll have to make several trips to your car.

Hawthorn has a good primitive feel with water and bathroom relatively close (.01-.)

Long walks into some of the campsites. Can get very windy by the water so make sure to protect your tent behind trees.

Pack light if staying at a walk-in site. Water and potty available within a reasonable distance. Public swim area is very nice and there are plenty of covered picnic areas for groups.

We love camping here! Some of the walk-in sites are quite a haul if you have a lot of gear so check the park map before you pick your site. Hawthorne area site #3 is perfect! Secluded but not too far from your car. Just enough distance to give you a more primitive feel but still have all your gear. This area is also right along the trail system so we were able to hop on our bikes and ride the loop through the park. Isle du Bois is our camping home away from home.

Great access to a public swim area (roped off). Trails are plentiful, but they are pretty sandy due to them being used as horse trails too.
