Campsite: Wabasso Lake Recreation Area

The lake is fantastic, dont get me wrong. But the "campgroud" leaves alot to be desired. Granted, it is an honor system, $5/day place... The mosquitoes are OUT OF CONTROL. As you enter the parking lot, to your left is campsite #1, best option here. To your right are sites #2-5 in order. You must go through each to get to the next. All sites have table and fire ring. There is no electric, there is a manual water pump near the bulletin board and latrine. (very clear here... Latrine, non-flush bathroom, no sink)

In order you have:

1.) prime location, drive up camping, plenty of private space.

2.) close to parking, nice lake view, plenty of space.

3.) walk through 2, follow path 100yards-ish, avoid small marsh... Small site, private.

4.) walk past or through 3, decent space, direct wooden stairs to water edge (swarm included), also moderately private.

5.) Walk through 2,3,4 and continue 1000feet. Extremely private, tonnes of space, most bugs of all. Small foot path to water.

Tips:

Buy a "thermacell" butane bug repellant. They are the only thing that help. 90% deet made a dent, but not much.

The market in town has most of the things you will want/need. Woodruff has the rest (follow i-47).

For firewood, go to Lac du flambeau campground and buy it there.

Final word: If you get site 1 or 2, don't mind mosquitoes, and maybe have a boat... It's pretty nice all said and done.

(p.s I have panoramas of each site but don't know how to post them to maps)
