10 RV Sites
Split Ridge Campground near Lake Holcombe, Wisconsin, offers 10 full-hookup RV sites in Chippewa County's lake and forest country, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Back-in and pop-up/tent categories join a beach, pond, pavilion, walking trails, and playground. Ten sites run in back-in and pop-up/tent categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits. One thing to check before booking: service is 30-amp throughout, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A beach and pond anchor the recreation, with swimming, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, and pavilion filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Directions from the north: from Highway 27 turn left onto County Road D for five miles, right onto County Road G for 2.2 miles, then right onto 295th Avenue and follow it in. Lake Holcombe sits just west — a 3,890-acre flowage on the Chippewa River that produces genuinely good walleye, musky, and panfish, with the kind of quiet northern Wisconsin shoreline that keeps regulars coming back rather than moving on to bigger water. The Chippewa County forest surrounds the area, with the Flambeau River State Forest and the Blue Hills within reach for hiking and ATV riding. Summer is the short, intense season in northern Wisconsin, with the fall fishing runs strong and ice fishing drawing a distinct winter following on the flowage. Reserve ahead for July and August weekends.

26 RV Sites, 50 Tent Sites
Sweet Minihaha Campground in Brodhead, Wisconsin, is a riverside family campground with RV and tent sites on the Sugar River, and kayak rentals available on site. Sites accommodate rigs up to 27 feet, which makes this a better fit for smaller trailers and vans than for big coaches. The campground sits in Green County on US-14, about an hour south of Madison. RV sites take rigs to 27 feet, and tent sites serve campers who want the riverbank without hauling a trailer. Facilities are deliberately simple: bathrooms on site, firewood available, and recycling provided. Guests who need full hookups or extensive infrastructure should note that this is a riverside campground rather than a resort, and it is priced and equipped accordingly. The Sugar River is the reason to come. Kayak rentals are available on site, and the river's flatwater character makes it forgiving for paddlers of any experience level — a genuine advantage over the faster Wisconsin rivers to the north. Fishing and canoeing round out the water recreation. The Sugar River State Trail, a 23-mile rail-trail crossing five historic river bridges between New Glarus and Brodhead, runs close by for cyclists and, in winter, cross-country skiers. Pets are welcome. New Glarus is nine miles north on WI-69 — the most authentically Swiss village in the Midwest, founded in 1845, home to the New Glarus Brewing Company and the Wilhelm Tell outdoor drama each September. Monroe, 14 miles southwest, is the Swiss cheese capital of the United States and hosts Cheese Days in even-numbered years. Sweet Minihaha runs from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. Summer river recreation and rail-trail cycling drive peak demand, and the fall cheese-country touring season follows through October and November. Reserve ahead for summer weekends and for the Wilhelm Tell and Cheese Days event dates.

Wilder Park in Allison, Iowa, offers 51 RV sites and six tent sites across 88 acres, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet. Full-hookup and water-and-electric categories in both back-in and pull-through join two fishing ponds, a disc golf course, mini-golf, and a storm shelter. Fifty-one sites run in 30/50-amp water-and-electric back-in, water-electric-and-sewer back-in, and water-electric-and-sewer pull-through categories, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and site WiFi. Six tent sites round out the accommodations. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, and a storm shelter sits on the grounds — a genuine safety feature in Iowa. The recreational range is unusually broad for a park this size. Two fishing ponds support angling and paddle boats, with a boat ramp for canoeing and kayaking. A disc golf course, mini-golf, ball field, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, pickleball, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, dog park, library, and community fire pit fill the 88 acres, with planned activities through the season. Off-roading is nearby. Pets are welcome. Allison sits on Iowa Highway 3 in Butler County, and the park works as both a genuine destination and a practical overnight for travelers crossing the state. The J&C Grocery, Allison Variety Store, and municipal swimming pool are in town, with Waverly 25 minutes away, Cedar Falls 35, Mason City 60, and five golf courses in the area. Summer is peak. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.
