I went looking for information on our Wisconsin State parks and what I found did not answer my questions. I couldn't tell if the neighboring sites were close, or if we had good brush between sites. It's hard to tell if your site backs up to another, and you definitely can't find the true waterfront campsites.
While campground tours are still a part of the channel, I have ventured out on more trails and expanded my travels to include some quick stops as well as a few National Parks.
I look forward to many more adventures.

Also, you can climb to the top viewpoint of Cape Perpetua at Amada's Loop. Or take the Cape Cove trail down to Thor's Well. You can take advantage of the 2-week stay limit to explore many more trails. Many first come fi...
Northern Lights Walking Campground tour at Wisconsin's Devils Lake State Park. Detailed Campsites
Просмотров 52714 дней назад
While staying at Northern Lights campground outside Baraboo WI in Devil's Lake State Park, I realized the details Were lacking in my original video. While you could sense wooded or open, many sites were very specific to what equipment would be best used. So I made a detailed walking tour to fill this need. If you have specific needs I suggest booking early. my normal trick of staying midweek do...
Amnicon Falls State Park -Tour of the Falls. Detailed tour so you don't miss a section.
Просмотров 41321 день назад
In a previous video, I did the campground tour and stumbled my way around the falls. Now as a veteran of the park, I thought I would show you all the sections so you don't miss a thing WHEN you visit. This fall has three main sections. Now and then, when water is flowing at a higher level. Snakepit Falls, and the Main Falls that go under the covered bridge. when all 3 are running it creates 2 i...
North Campground Tour at Copper Falls State Park. Updated for 2024. Mostly Electric, easy RV Access
Просмотров 52128 дней назад
While staying at Copper Falls State Park this spring I decided it was time for an updated walking tour of the north campground. The RV Section if you will. While almost all sites are electric and quite big, a few are smaller without electricity. Either way, the facilities in this section are primitive and hard to get to. However, these are the closest to the doughboy trail.

Michigan UP Bond Falls tour and free waterfront camping information. MI exceeded my expectations

After spending over an hour trying to figure out how to pay for one of the available waterfront campsites, I found out they were free. Come along and explore these spectacular falls and the enchanting cascades of Bond Falls, and learn how to nab one of the free waterfront campsites.
Agate Falls Scenic Site in the heart of the UP. A roadside Park worth the stop.

I thought the falls visible from the old railroad bridge were the main attraction. and they probably are. But the simple parklike setting along the middle branch of the Ontonagon River just downstream of Bond Falls is so relaxing.

I’m from Missouri and have been wanting to go to Wisconsin for the first time, thank you for this video! I now have multiple great options to choose from
More details on all these campgrounds and more on this channel
Very helpful thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I just watched two of your videos in a row(I’ve watched a bunch, love them, and you rule!), for two upcoming camping trips at New Glarus Woods State Park, then one at Wildcat Mountain. In the New Glarus one, the only site(22) “Occupied” was the one with the abandoned tent, and at Wildcat site 110 was a long way out there, and it seemed like you thought it might be occupied, so you didn’t check it out. Those are both the sites I have. Doh! S*it happens. Lol. Again, love your videos, and used them for reference many times now! Keep it up, my man!! 🤘🏕️❤️
You are just going to have to keep booking the sites I can look at and posting about them
The 50 number sites are horrible. People are 10 feet away from each other, lots of mosquitos being close to the water and the ground are not leveled. Site 20 and 25, 47 area are good if you prefer some distance with other campers.
Thanks for sharing that Info
Thanks for all the informative videos you put out! Was starting to plan on some winter camping and this video definitely helped. Keep up the great work!
I have off season videos from Kohler, peninsula, wyalousing, and high cliff as well
another nice video THANKS
Easy??? I beg to differ! We did it this week on bike. Brutal! I call it advanced
Just so beautiful! We were in northern California a few years back and definitely will go back again. Thanks for your time in putting these wonderful videos together!
Your welcome
❤
Northern California!!! You’re away from home. Thanks for the review.
Just a bit
Very cool trip. I gotta get there someday.
Worth it.
I'm so happy you posted this today! We will be in Fern Canyon today. The canyon is looking great 😊
Hope you have /had a great time
Pretty primitive sites. Good location
Location location location
Thank you for your helpful videos! They help me select our perfect campsite! ❤
That's the goal
another nice video THANKS
Thank you
I wanted to go tent camping for memorial day weekend and the only spot open is 138 so I’m hoping to make it work next to rvs😂
0lenty of folks do make it work that way. Have fun
Thanks for letting me know this one was up! I love the trails up there! It's like walking through an enchanted forest ✨️ The Sitka Spruce trees are so impressive there! Thors Well is a favorite stop of mine! I love seeing the CCC shelters throughout the US. I am glad you enjoyed your time in that area. 😃
Maybe not my best thumbnail
If you move out, bring your trailer here for a while, just a few miles to Star Lake
I am so excited to see this series! I just love the PNW. We leave in 3 days heading up that way. The van looked cozy 😊
First campground tour is already up.
4:55 camping right there as we speak :D
enjoy
I live in Minocqua, and I go to Clear Lake and Crystal at least 3 times a week. Nothing better during summer and fall.
Heard that there. We always thought that call may be a baby raven?
Well I would have announced what state it's in
Unless I say otherwise, this is a Wisconsin based channel
another nice video THANKS
Hello my friend! Came back for good content. Keep going! Such a cool spot!
Such a beautiful place! Looking forward to your next leg of the journey (I’m assuming there is one)! Thanks for all your videos…they are wonderful and so helpful!
5 more campgrounds
❤
Great video. Every time I've been to this park, everyone who tent camped (tent only area) parked their cars at their site. Just in case anyone wanted to know this fact..
Great photography! I love visiting Marinette county, and the powerful Peshtigo river. Governor Thompson state park is another gem, I'd love to see your video of that park if you make one. I enjoy watching all your videos, keep up the great work!!👍
Here you go. It was raining that day ruclips.net/video/xRXF9sBxu3U/видео.html
Is it my imagination, or is Wisc trying to discourage camping, especially for out-of-state folks. This year, as in past years, I bought my annual park sticker (paying the higher non-resident fee). Now, I’m seeing higher non-resident fees for camping. Is that new this year? Finally, are on-line reservations mandatory? If so, that means another fee tacked on. I really enjoy camping in Wisc. The parks are so much nicer than what’s available in Illinois. But, unless I’m mistaken, it seems there are a couple of new fees being imposed that are giving me pause. Maybe it’s time to look harder at campgrounds in Illinois.
Unfortunately, our state parks are self funded. Tax dollars are not being used, unlike Illinois, which seem to be funded in other ways. Many states are imposing non-resident fees to help the residents get sitesbin there own state. Others are giving residents a head start on reservations. Wisconsin now requires all sites paid online. However, if you pay say day, any extra fees are waved.
@@SconnyWandering Thanks for taking the time to reply, I appreciate it. Keep up the great work. Your videos are excellent.
This just popped up today.ruclips.net/video/XuAlWgq_4CM/видео.htmlsi=0GPzOys9doNjcaD0
@@SconnyWandering That was terrific; so on point for me. Thank you for sharing it. One of their comments reminds me of a time, many moons ago, when we were driving back from Door County and I got pulled over for speeding. The officer got my info, saw that I was from Illinois, then said: "I'm going to give you a warning and not a ticket. We enjoy having our Illinois neighbors visit our great State. While you're here, we'd prefer that you spend your money at our businesses and restaurants and not on traffic tickets. So, please slow down and come back soon."
If you're up in this area again, would you mind doing a tour of the Lost Lake Cabins?
Thank so much for all the information. But I do have a question, do you have to get a forest pass along with an interagency pass for the discounts?
No, then interagency pass covers all federal lands
@@SconnyWandering Thank you very much, I will go and get a pass.
@@rogerwendorf158 very worth it if your over 62
@@SconnyWandering I am 68
another great tour, thank you, looks nice and away from the crowds.
So I'm watching this video and there we are in site 23. We go every year so it's hard to say when. But definitely precovid.
This was within the past 2 years. After the water level went back down
FYI site 270 when there is rain it can flood! Notice the darker ground in the video.
Thanks for sharing that info
another nice video THANKS
Nice looking campground 😊
Thanks for your videos
Your welcome
Is there any free camping there?
Not at this location
I stayed at Gemini Lake back in the late 80's when it was $2 per night.
Still a good deal
Was just there last week for the second time. Beautiful!
How's it flowing
2:42 I'm at the third Campground now where I'm here for 20 seconds in the camp host comes running out to ask me if I have my sticker how long I'm staying and if I signed in and I have my goodness but a whole bunch of people can be picking berries inside campsites and I reported and nobody checks on their stickers or whether they paid. Plus I called the day before to have a pile of poop picked up in the campsite how do we know it wasn't the berry Pickers
Before Covid, this campground and the other surrounding campgrounds were full all the time. Funding for the US Forest Service has also affected things, but it is a beautiful place and I really appreciate you taking the time to share it with everyone!
Thanks for sharing!
Blueberry loop will probably never open again, it floods, but it’s a great place to go for a quiet peaceful walk. The deer like to hang out in there.❤
Thanks for the info!
HERRON loop is considered overflow. When it gets crowded, usually on holiday weekends, they will open it. Gives the camp host less work to do as far as bathroom cleaning.
Looks like it has not been open it years. Quite overgrown
Thanks for sharing! I love seeing this beautiful park again! A friend and I were camp host 2021/23 and fell in love with that park! Doing a site tour is a great idea!🙏🏻✨ It’s an incredibly beautiful park and I will always treasure my time there! Most of the guests were fisherman. if you have a boat, there’s a separate boat ramp off of M where they can drop in their boats and then park them over by the pier in the campground. Pretty nifty.
That is awesome!
So glad you're not doing the pouring coffee thing at the beginning of these videos like so many others while I was doing that at my Camp someone next to me commented that they thought it was going to the bathroom because it was into a styrofoam cup and kind of loud
Ha, I am not a coffee drinker. My wife wishes I would make her coffee
Do you know how to use the “build your stay/switch to a single site.? It says the site number I am putting in is “not a site”
I am not familiar with that
Would love to see you tour the group site as well.
The group site here is weird. Kind of. Most seem to be for this is like scout groups, or similar. The one at Kohler is near the main campground intersection, and the dayuse parking. It does not seem to have much parking. It's right in the backside of the dune along the park road
