Very basic campground. They have a nice laundry area. Nice restrooms. Small area for you to buy some necessities. Close to everything has mail for you to retrieve if you stay there long-term. I have stayed there long-term and short-term. Never had any problems. Would recommend this place very highly. If you're staying in Milwaukee I need to be close to everything. Your dogs are allowed as long as they're on a leash. They do not have our dog run area but they do have areas for your dog to go to the bathroom

Urban camping at its finest. This was our very first time here with our 25 ft Class A for the IndyCar race. The staff in the check in office was organized. The different lots show how it is expandable based on events. Full hookups by the newer bathhouse. I as across the road with electric and water which was fine for a short stay. This is perfect for any event at the fairgrounds or event in downtown Milwaukee. I will definitely be back again for next years race.

They have some pull through sites with full hook ups. They also have a clean laundry facility with showers and restrooms. We will definitely be back again.

We stayed a week middle of May. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Clean laundry, showers and bathrooms. We were across the street (asphalt site) and had water and electric hookups, sewer available in main part of the park although there is a dump available. Convenient and priced right, but a little noisy, freeway on one side and near streets. Safe, saw security couple times a day. Also, he had a plan for the tornadoes that were in the area our first night!

Perfect place to stay if going to a Brewers Game and spending time Downtown. There is no doubt that this is a parking lot, spots are close together-not level and RV doors face each other, not a place to be hanging out and grilling. With that said, it is clean, safe, quiet, offers full hook ups, well-lit, convenient to all things Milwaukee. Super nice staff, Bathrooms-Showers-Laundry rooms must have been newly renovated, they are pristine and large. Dog walk area/grass in-between rows, or in back of some sites. Some sites offer shade.
