We stayed here 4 nights late August. The campground was conveniently located to nearby sights and attractions. The check-in process was very smooth. The grounds were absolutely meticulously kept. Although we did not use the shower/bath house, I checked them out and have to say they were among the cleanest I've ever seen. There is a gentleman that cleans up every site when it is vacated, and he rakes every inch of it leaving it pristine for the next arrival. We stayed on a waterfront site. It does not have full hookups, only water and electric, but the view was far superior to the full hookup sites. The sites further away from the water are mostly seasonal sites, it seems, with a few open sites sprinkled in. There were nice trails for walking around the campground, and we found the nearby roads very nice for bike rides. The countryside is beautiful. Would we stay here again? 100% yes! The owners obviously put a lot of love into this campground, and it shows.

We rented a camper July 26 for couple nights. Check in went well, lady was nice. Campground was nice. But they don't follow through on things. The first night when we tried using the pull out couch bed for our teen, we discovered it was a blow up mattress on the frame. Then when we blew it up and it immediately deflated, we turned it over and found holes. Right away when the office opened, we talked to the lady and she said she would have maintenance come. They never did. Our teen had to squeeze on a small couch to sleep. We brought it up again the next day. Was never made right and barely got an apology. So if you rent a camper, check everything immediately. Edit to respond to owner: if you advertise that the camer has 2 beds, then there should be 2 beds. That's what we paid for.

We stayed here for five nights as we explored the Minocqua and Eagle River area. We've stayed here at least three times now and keep coming back. The service is great, the grounds are well kept, the sites are large, and there is a decent amount of space between sites so there we don't feel like we are on top of each other. We've stayed in multiple campgrounds all over the northwoods and this one is our favorite.

We had stayed at Patricia lake campground for our families first camping trip in years. We were extremely excited to get together with our extended family. I booked 3 campsites, a rental, camper site and a tent site. Checking in was a smooth process and we were asked for our vehicle information. Because not everyone had not arrived yet I was unable to provide our license information. This was no issue at first. Family time commenced and I admit I forgot to go back up to the office that night and provide the information (this is on me). However, this is where our stay took. Turn and I would not recommend anyone staying here. The owner came down to our campsite and immediately stated she would be towing all of our vehicles. She began yelling in front of the children present. I am EXTREMELY disappointed with how this situation was handled. I could understand if it was a "larger" issue like someone of our party violating rules or effecting someone else's experience. However, it was over license plate information... We were withing the vehicle policy (2 vehicles per site). After I had kindly asked the owner to take a breath so we could calmly discuss the situation we were able to go up to the front desk and provide the information needed. It was then I was told that "I already apologized, I don't know what else you want me to do". Camping is family time for us, I truly didn't appreciate the hostility and yelling I front of our kids. The campground was beautiful, the only other complaint I had was the sites were all gravel and it hurt the kids feet walking around.

Great little campground. Our site was right on the water, I think it was F11, on the map all the way to the right. It was the only site in the campground that I would say had some privacy, state park like feel, not the easiest site to back into with my 20’ trailer but worth the effort. Needed 50’ of cord to connect electric. Only concern; I had looked online and saw the availability of sites so when I called I just said I see site F11 is available, there response yes it is, we finished the transaction. Once I arrived and paid the final amount due I reviewed the receipt and noticed a $15 site lock fee, this should have been explained to while on the phone not just added to my bill. I was planning to request a refund of the fee when I departed, but got sidetracked and it slipped my mind.

Very clean campground. You can tell it's a well oiled operation they have going on. The site we stayed at was all small gravel. Which was awesome. Kept everything clean. Even the dogs. It rained a couple times during our stay. Because of the gravel everything was all dried up instantly with no mess. Would come back just for that reason alone. Shower house was top notch. No complaints here. Great people beach along with a good dog beach that we used for most of the stay. Thank you for a great time.

Family friendly quiet and fishing is good. There are a lot of rules but it’s a nice place so I guess the rules work.
