Awesome, clean, peaceful park to camp at.

Great & affordable camping, spacious sites with hookups or not, fishing, boat launch, friendly staff and beautiful scenery. ATV trails near. We try to come back every year! Don't forget to stop at Petenwell Pub on the lake for some great food and spirits! Watch out for the bugs...they have been nasty some years 😳🦟🪰 Update, unfortunately the pub is closed now but the owners still offer cabin rentals.

Great place for camping. They made accommodations for us campsites were good bathrooms were good clean. Showers could use a little cleaning up. And other than an excess of mosquitoes. Is good solid experience.

Absolutely unbearable Mosquitoes and Black Flies. We camped there last year and the black flies and mosquitoes were unbearable. When we first arrived we noticed how empty the big beautiful beach was until we just got massacred by biting flies and mosquitoes. Tried Thermacells and every can of spray you could imagine. They ate us and the dogs alive. We camp a lot usually in off grid national NF sites and all of Wisconsin and the U.P and mosquitoes and black flies aren’t usually a problem like they are at Petenwell. Won’t go back. Not enjoyable one bit. They have to hire someone to come in and spray or something or that place is gonna keep losing money. Lady told me “oh well” when we mentioned how unbearable it was.
