Family owned and operated campground near Shawano, Wi. We have a swim pond, fish pond, jumping pillow, playgrounds, arcade, bar & grill, and a camp store with Cedar Crest ice cream. There are many hiking and biking trails to enjoy all of the nature. Open year round for camping. Electric available all year, water is off mid October through April (as weather allows), bar & grill open all year.
It was the first time we stayed at this campground and we loved it! The owners were super friendly and everyone else we met were too! The sites were a good size and the restrooms were clean. The bar was fun and the food was good as well! We definitely will be back!
This camping park seems to be filled mostly of regulars or people that live there for a season. They act as if everyone drives around go-karts all the time and will scream at you if they feel you are going over 5mph, even though the go-karts the park offers for rent don't have any speedometers. After I got yelled at it was hard to relax without the worry of getting yelled at. The owners of the park also don't verify the vaccination records of every dog that enters the park until it may be too late. Our dog bit our friends daughter, which is a regular occurrence. The owner and his posse was quick to roll up in both of their go-karts to verify vaccination records. It's a little late now isn't it? And despite letting them know that this is a regular occurrence between our friends daughter and my dog we were asked to keep the dog at our cabin. What's the whole point of bringing him along then? The bar doesn't serve beer on tap and the beer in the cans they do sell are of the national non-craft variety. It's a shame since there is a decent Craft Brewery 20 minutes away. Maybe this place just isn't for my family and I but it's hard for me to recommend and we probably won't be going back.
This was the first time we have been to this campground. With everything on the news, we thought we would let the dust settle and try it out at a later date. So we did and we will not be coming back anytime soon.
Upon check in, we were not given a map of the campground. We had no idea where our site was so we had to find an online map to figure it out. The inflatable jumping pad has a hole, the inflatable jumping playhouse has a hole, and all the swimming inflatables have holes so none of them stay inflated. The inflatable swim toys are not anchored down either which is dangerous, but "swim at your own risk". Also, two of the games in the arcade room do not work properly, so that was a waste of money. (Basketball and the Fireball Fury).
Friday night they had a movie playing for people to come and watch, which is great. The bass was so loud at 10 PM you could hear it over our camper fans set on high. Then the music at the bar was so loud, we could also hear that at midnight, with the camper fans on high. Quiet time is 11 PM, which was stated in the campground rules. Obviously this rule is not followed.
We understand this is under new management as of September 2022, so we may reconsider coming back in a few years, but not anytime soon.
Stayed for the weekend with our pop up. It was such a fun time. There is so much to do. We rented a golf cart and spent a lot of time just exploring. We saw so much wildlife too and the little pond had some turtles and frogs. We enjoyed grabbing a drink at the bar and even won a little money on the machines. They have a cute little parade of golf carts that are all lit up and decorated. There is a very nice swimming pond and many other fun activities especially for kids. We will for sure be back and next time we will bring our pups because they are animal friendly!!!
Always have fun here. So much to do and the people are so friendly. Love the parade of golf carts at night. The kids.had a great time
