Campgrounds near Francis Creek, Wisconsin
Francis Creek is a small village in Manitowoc County in east-central Wisconsin, situated just east of Interstate 43 and within roughly 15 minutes of the Lake Michigan shoreline. Its position between Manitowoc, Two Rivers, and Green Bay makes it a practical base for RV travelers who want quiet inland nights and easy day trips to the coast, state forest land, and county parks.
Campground options in the surrounding area lean private and family-run. Devils River Campground sits near Maribel, roughly between Green Bay and Manitowoc, with grassy sites among mature trees. Closer to the lake, Village Inn On The Lake Hotel and RV Park and Seagull Marina and Campground serve travelers who want water access at Two Rivers, while Scheffel's Hideaway Campground sits adjacent to Point Beach State Forest. Mapleview Campground rounds out the inland options for RVers looking for hookups without the reservation windows of state land.
Most private campgrounds in the area run a warm-weather season roughly from spring through fall, so trip timing matters.
Things to do near Francis Creek
The main draw is the Lake Michigan coast. Point Beach State Forest covers nearly 3,000 acres with six miles of sandy beach, the Rawley Point Lighthouse, and connections to the Ice Age National Scenic Trail. The forest has hiking, biking, cross-country ski, and snowmobile trails winding through mixed woods and dunes.
Inland, Cherney Maribel Caves County Park sits near Maribel, with cliffside caves along the West Twin River. The Wisconsin Maritime Museum and waterfront in Manitowoc, the Mariner's Trail linking Manitowoc and Two Rivers, and Lambeau Field in Green Bay are all within a comfortable day trip. Anglers can fish Lake Michigan and its tributaries with a Wisconsin license.

The camping season here is short and clearly defined. Private parks including Devils River Campground typically operate from May into early October, while Scheffel's Hideaway Campground near Point Beach runs a longer April to December season. Point Beach State Forest campground is open year-round, but the shower building shuts down in mid to late October, and only sites 74 through 81 carry electricity for winter camping.
Summer is peak season. July and August bring the warmest days and the highest booking pressure at both state and private campgrounds along the coast. June and September are quieter alternatives with cooler nights and still-open facilities. Lake Michigan moderates local temperatures, keeping the shore cooler on hot summer afternoons and warmer overnight in the shoulder seasons.
Winters are cold and snowy, with lake-effect snow, dense fog, and strong fall winds all documented as regional patterns tied to Lake Michigan. Most private RV parks close for the season, and travelers who camp in the off-season should plan for limited water and services.

This was a great RV! Everything was immaculate and everyone was extremely helpful and went out of their way to help. The RV had a great layout and is a really comfortable space to enjoy! We couldnt be happier!
Jason D. - Sep 2026
Crystal and Kevin were awesome hosts! Crystal was very thorough with communication and organization and had helpful tips for us as first-time RV campers. Kevin set up and did a detailed walk through and showed us all the cool features of the RV. It was clean and smelled like a fancy hotel room, and they really thought of everything, even extra nice touches like 2 packets of Door County coffee. Would 100% recommend renting this RV from these great hosts!

I've rented his rv several times now and will continue to anytime im in the area. Excellent host and very clean and well equipped rv. He makes sure you know how everything works and where it is. He makes setting up and returning the rv is easy and confusion free. If you need an rv definitely look at him first except when I want to rent it of course.

How to book a campsite near Francis Creek
State-run sites use the Wisconsin DNR reservation system on the Going to Camp platform. Point Beach State Forest campsites can be reserved from the day of arrival up to 11 months in advance, either online or by phone at 1-888-WIPARKS, and a Wisconsin State Park System vehicle admission sticker is required in addition to the camping fee. All standard sites are fully reservable, with no first-come, first-served inventory at this property outside remote northern forests.
Private campgrounds book directly with the operator. Devils River Campground operates by reservation, with sites available nightly or seasonally. For weekends in July and August, contact Village Inn On The Lake Hotel and RV Park, Seagull Marina and Campground, Scheffel's Hideaway Campground, or Mapleview Campground well in advance.
What to expect on the ground
Sites near Francis Creek trend grassy and wooded rather than paved and manicured. Devils River Campground offers water and electric hookups, with toilets, showers, a laundry room, a store, and a swimming pond on the property. Some sites are tight for larger rigs, so RVers with longer trailers should confirm dimensions when booking.
At Point Beach State Forest, all 127 family sites are wooded and within walking distance of Lake Michigan, though high sand dunes block direct lake views from the campsites. About 70 sites carry electricity, flush toilets and shower buildings serve the loops near sites 31 and 120, and a dump station is available to registered campers across from the main entrance.
Pets are generally welcome on leash across both private and state properties, with restrictions on beaches, buildings, playgrounds, and marked nature trails.
