It serves as a well-maintained base for travelers looking for a mix of social activities and quiet relaxation within a secure, gated environment that emphasizes guest safety and comfort throughout the season.

Tucked away in Gresham, Wisconsin, the resort is characterized by its mature hardwood forests and proximity to the scenic Wolf River. The landscape provides a dense canopy that creates a secluded atmosphere, allowing guests to disconnect from the bustle of daily life. It is conveniently situated near the city of Shawano, making it easy to access local supplies while still enjoying the natural beauty and tranquility of northeastern Wisconsin’s wilderness and rolling terrain.

Visitors can enjoy both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, ensuring a swim is possible regardless of the unpredictable Wisconsin weather.

Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Exploration starts just outside the gates with the Wolf River, a prime regional destination for tubing and whitewater rafting. History and gaming enthusiasts are located just minutes from the North Star Mohican Casino Resort and the Menominee Indian Reservation. For those seeking more water recreation, Shawano Lake offers excellent boating and fishing opportunities just a short drive away, while the surrounding county features miles of lush trails for hiking and birdwatching.
Who This Park Is Best For
This resort is ideal for families and retirees who value a predictable, high-standard camping environment with plenty of on-site amenities.

My whole family and I really enjoyed Captains Cove. It was a fun and relaxing experience with lots of amenities. The room we stayed in was clean and comfortable.

Absolutely unacceptable and beyond dangerous. A toddler managed to open the camper door and get out on his own, the locks are completely useless. He could have been TAKEN. Imagine walking outside and your toddler is just GONE. Doug, this isn’t just poor maintenance—it’s pure NEGLIGENCE. What if he wandered into the road? What if someone grabbed him? We are NEVER coming back. This is supposed to be a family-friendly place, but it is NOT SAFE for children. DO BETTER. Make this place secure before someone’s child gets seriously hurt—or worse. You’ve been warned.
