You will also find laundry facilities and a well-stocked camp store for supplies and treats.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Beyond the park gates, guests can explore the majestic Montello Waterfalls located in the heart of the downtown area. Nature enthusiasts often head to Buffalo Lake for premier fishing and boating opportunities. The nearby Amish community also offers unique shopping for handmade goods and baked treats. For a day of high-speed thrills and water parks, the world-famous attractions of the Wisconsin Dells are just a short drive away, making this park an excellent basecamp for exploring central Wisconsin.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination is ideal for active families who want a resort-style experience where children can roam safely between the pool and the playgrounds.

Not having been to this campground for over 15 years my husband and I came a toured it back in July and let our group know how happy we were with the layout and amenities. We all have "big rigs" and it is so nice to be in the newer area that you developed. So, we made our fall camping trip reservations with Wilderness and could not have been happier! Our entire group was so pleased that we re-booked for next year and now know that if we want to sneak another trip into our summer plans you will be a location we would love to come to. From the terrific sites to the nice quiet times (that seemed to be enforced) to the very pleasant staff everything was wonderful and we will be back!

Well this year was different but ok. 1) We arrived for the spring fling only to be told we were now be charged for electricity, even thought small, was just the fact of not being told until we were standing there. 2) We had a weekend we came up and already had family up there a crossed from where our site was. So I called to make sure we are all good for early check in. The lady I talked to was extremely rude and snippy. I told her I just wanted to confirm there wasn't going to be issue as we are aware no on was on our lot since the night before. 3) Fall Fling - we arrived to discovered the inflatables are out and pool is closed. We had 3 great weekends to be able to use them of the 6 we were there. In previous years we have had 2-3 weekends of the 6 weeks before they closed the pool and removed all of the inflatables. They usually left at least one of the inflatables in the until the 2 or 3 weekend. 4) We are going to truly miss the fall fling as the price increase, while still is cheaper then normal costs is beyond what we feel makes sense. We now pay electricity, no pool and no inflatables for any of our time there. We will still be back for spring fling as we have a group of us and we have a few other weekends scheduled. Hope things level out over the next year as we truly love all the other aspects of the campground. And I just want to shout out to Seth who always was a joy to interact with in the food shop. Thank you Sheri

We had the most extraordinary weekend at the Wilderness Campground! Children, grandchildren, and a great grandchild rounded out our family get-together. It was so enjoyable, we are hoping to make it a family tradition at this campground. The grounds were kept amazingly clean, all staff we came in contact with were friendly and helpful. As soon as we pulled in to register, we felt welcomed. Staff definitely set the tone for our weekend get-away. There are so many fun activities for kids of all ages that we did not get to all of them. I cannot say enough positive things about this wonderful, fun, peaceful get away to the Wilderness Campground. We will see you next season!!

Staff is so helpful and pleasant!! Our cabin was beautifully clean upon checking in. Even smelled clean!! We got to check in early so that was great as well. All around great stay and would recommend to anyone. I hope maybe in the future golf carts would be a great addition, but we will definitely be back!! Thank you so much!!

Wilderness Campground is great for everyone looking for a fun weekend! Plenty of swimming and play areas, trails and disc golf, and theme weekends bring a festive flair for every visit. Fun for the whole family, definitely coming back!
The Hay
This past weekend my family attended Wilderness Campground for the first time. We stumbled upon it at the WI RV show at State Fair and couldn't be more pleased that we went. The staff was tremendous, courteous, and accommodating. We participated in the foam party, hay ride, DJ, Pool, Pond and the list goes on. I can say with absolute certainty that we will be going back as soon as possible.
