Camping near Solon Springs, Wisconsin
Solon Springs is a small village on the west shore of Upper St. Croix Lake in Douglas County, about 30 miles south of Superior off U.S. Highway 53. The area is a northern Wisconsin lake-country base, with easy access to the St. Croix and Bois Brule River headwaters, the Brule River State Forest, and the North Country National Scenic Trail, which passes directly through town.
RV renters find a compact set of options within a short drive. Swansons Motel and Campground sits in the village itself along the North Country Trail route. North View Campground, LLC and Schatzis 4 Seasons Resort serve travelers heading toward the Eau Claire Lakes chain and Gordon Flowage. Happy Ours RV Park and Brule River Motel and Campground put paddlers within easy reach of the Bois Brule.
Lucius Woods County Park, run by Douglas County, is the closest developed public campground and anchors the lakefront in town with electric and non-electric sites, a swimming beach, and an amphitheater used for the Music in the Park concert series.
Things to do around Solon Springs
Upper St. Croix Lake is the main draw. Renters use it for swimming, pontooning, kayaking, and warm-water fishing for walleye, bass, and panfish. The Bois Brule River, a short drive north, is one of the state's best-known trout streams and a classic paddling route.
On land, the North Country National Scenic Trail crosses the village and links the Brule Bog Boardwalk and the historic Brule-St. Croix Portage. Lucius Woods County Park has a sand beach, playground, hiking trails, and a lakeside amphitheater with Saturday evening concerts through the summer.
Day trips are practical from an RV base here. Pattison and Amnicon Falls state parks lie north toward Superior, Jay Cooke State Park is across the border in Minnesota, and the Eau Claire Lakes chain sits southeast for a second day of paddling.

When to visit Solon Springs

50° / 28°F 50 mmLate thaw; water systems may not run until mid-May
- summer
June - August
77° / 55°F 95 mmPeak season; lakefront sites book months out
- fall
September - November
52° / 34°F 55 mmCool nights, fall color, thinner crowds through October

December - February
21° / 5°F 25 mmDeep cold and heavy snow; most campgrounds closed
The Solon Springs camping season runs roughly May through September, matching the Douglas County parks calendar. Lucius Woods and the surrounding county campgrounds open in spring and close in fall, and private RV parks in the area follow a similar window. Water systems at most Wisconsin public campgrounds may not run until mid-May.
Summer is peak season. July and August bring the warmest lake temperatures, the Music in the Park concert series, and the highest booking pressure at lakefront sites. June is quieter but can be buggy in the bogs and along the river corridors. Early fall is a strong shoulder window: cooler nights, thinner crowds, and color along the North Country Trail through late September and early October.
Winters are long and cold, with heavy snow. Most campgrounds close, though the region shifts to snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and ice fishing. Renters planning off-season trips should confirm road access and whether any hookups are winterized.
How to book a campsite near Solon Springs
Private campgrounds in and around Solon Springs, including Swansons Motel and Campground, North View Campground, LLC, Schatzis 4 Seasons Resort, Happy Ours RV Park, and Brule River Motel and Campground, are booked directly with each operator by phone or through their own websites. Lakefront and full-hookup sites at these properties can fill early for July, August, and holiday weekends.
Lucius Woods County Park and other Douglas County campgrounds are reserved through the county forestry department. For Wisconsin state parks and forests in the surrounding region, reservations run through the Wisconsin DNR system online or at 1-888-947-2757, and can be made up to 11 months before the arrival date. All standard state park sites are reservable, with no first-come, first-served standard sites.
What to expect on the ground
Expect a rural, small-town setting. The village has a grocery store, gas, a hardware store, and a handful of restaurants, but travelers stocking up for a week are better off loading in Superior, Duluth, or Hayward before heading in. Cell coverage is generally usable in town and weaker in the surrounding forest and river corridors.
Sites vary from tight, tree-lined lakeside pads to open gravel pull-throughs. Larger Class A and long fifth-wheel renters should confirm site length before booking, especially at Lucius Woods, where several sites are compact. Full hookups are limited; many public sites offer electric and water, with a central dump station.
Bring bug spray from June into July, secure food against raccoons, and follow Wisconsin's firewood rule: use certified wood or wood sourced within 10 miles of the campground.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Solon Springs, WI
How much does an RV rental in Solon Springs typically cost?
An RV rental in Solon Springs is one of the more affordable ways to enjoy the Wisconsin Northwoods. On RVezy, travel trailers typically run $90 to $175 per night, Class C motorhomes $175 to $300, and larger Class A rigs $300 to $500. Because Solon Springs is a small village rather than a tourist hub, daily rates here often beat what you would find near Minneapolis or Madison. For a cheap RV rental in Solon Springs, book midweek, target shoulder seasons like late May or early September, and look for hosts offering weekly discounts. Pro tip: filter by Instant Book to find owners who price competitively and respond quickly so you can lock in your Upper St. Croix Lake getaway fast.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Solon%20Springs%2C%20WisconsinWhat license do I need to rent an RV in Solon Springs?
A regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Solon Springs. Wisconsin does not require a commercial driver's license (CDL) or any special RV endorsement for personal motorhomes or travel trailers, even larger Class A rigs. To book on RVezy, the approved driver must generally be at least 25 years old, and your ID is verified securely through the platform during checkout, so there is no paperwork to print or notarize. Visiting from outside the U.S.? Bring your home country license along with an International Driving Permit (IDP), usually under $20 from your local auto club. With that quick step done, you are ready to head north to Upper St. Croix Lake.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsIs my RV rental in Solon Springs protected if something goes wrong?
Yes, every RV rental in Solon Springs booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can hit the Bois Brule backroads with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers most damage to the vehicle, and you choose your preferred coverage level (not the host) during checkout, with multiple tiers available depending on how much financial cushion you want. While it is not a traditional auto insurance policy, it provides substantial protection if the unexpected happens, from a chipped windshield on Highway 53 to a flat tire on a Douglas County forest road. That coverage is one less thing on your packing list, leaving more room for fishing gear.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Solon Springs RV trip?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy sets the cancellation policy (not individual hosts), and every reservation includes a money-back grace period right after booking so you can lock in your dates with confidence. Beyond the grace window, refund amounts depend on how far in advance you cancel. You will see the full cancellation details during checkout and in your trip dashboard. If a host needs to cancel, RVezy refunds your booking or helps you rebook. Pro tip: if you are booking a peak July or August week around Music in the Park at Lucius Woods, reserve early; the dates you want fill up fast and you can plan within the cancellation policy if plans change.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on an RV rental in Solon Springs?
Absolutely, a pet-friendly RV rental in Solon Springs is easy to find on RVezy. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter and you will see listings whose owners welcome four-legged co-pilots. Many hosts charge a small pet cleaning fee (typically $25 to $75), which is listed right on the page. Solon Springs is a dream for dogs: Lucius Woods County Park allows leashed pets in the campground, the North Country National Scenic Trail passes nearby for woodsy walks, and Upper St. Croix Lake has shoreline where dogs can splash. Pro tip: pack a towel for muddy paws after Bois Brule River hikes, and message your host beforehand to confirm pet details so check-in is smooth.
douglascountywi.gov/650/CampgroundsCan the RV be delivered to my campground in Solon Springs?
Yes, RV delivery in Solon Springs is widely available and is often the easiest way to start your trip, especially if it is your first time renting an RV. Many RVezy hosts in Douglas County will tow the RV directly to Lucius Woods County Park, Gordon Dam County Park, or a private cabin driveway, level it, hook up power and water, and walk you through every system before they leave. Delivery fees commonly run $2 to $5 per mile from the host's location, with some hosts offering flat-rate packages for nearby parks. Use the Delivery filter to see hosts who offer this service. Just show up with groceries and fishing rods, your motorhome rental in Solon Springs will be set up and waiting.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Solon%20Springs%2C%20WisconsinHow far can I drive on an RV road trip from Solon Springs?
Most RVezy hosts offer generous daily mileage allowances (often 100 to 150 free miles per day), and some list RV rentals with unlimited mileage, perfect for a longer Solon Springs RV trip. From here you are set up for incredible loops: Duluth, MN is about 45 miles northwest, Apostle Islands National Lakeshore near Bayfield is roughly 85 miles east, Voyageurs National Park sits about 200 miles northwest, and the Boundary Waters Canoe Area near Ely, MN is around 160 miles away. Pro tip: check the mileage policy on each listing before booking, and if your itinerary is ambitious, message the host to discuss a custom mileage bundle. Many owners are happy to flex for a great trip.
nps.gov/apis/index.htmWhere are the best campgrounds near Solon Springs?
You have great options for RV camping in Solon Springs. Lucius Woods County Park sits right on Upper St. Croix Lake with electric and water sites, a sandy swimming beach, dump station, and the popular Music in the Park concert series on summer Saturday nights. Gordon Dam County Park, south of town, offers waterfront sites on the St. Croix Flowage with excellent muskie fishing. Mooney Dam County Park hugs the Totagatic Flowage and is quieter for anglers. Private options near town round out the choices. Pro tip: reservations for Douglas County parks open in early February each year and prime lakefront sites disappear quickly.
douglascountywi.gov/650/CampgroundsWhen is the best time to visit Solon Springs in an RV?
Late May through mid-September is the sweet spot for an RV trip in Solon Springs, with the Douglas County campgrounds running their standard season from late May through Labor Day weekend. July and August bring warm days typically in the upper 70s to low 80s F, perfect for swimming in Upper St. Croix Lake. June often has fewer mosquitoes than later summer and offers long daylight (sunset close to 9 p.m.), while September brings crisp 60s and early fall color along the Bois Brule. Winters here are seriously cold, so most hosts list their RVs from spring through fall. Pro tip: book the second week of September for peak color and shoulder-season pricing.
weather.gov/dlh/I have never driven an RV before. Will I be okay in Solon Springs?
You will do great. Solon Springs is one of the friendliest places in Wisconsin for a first time renting an RV. US Highway 53 is a wide divided four-lane through town, traffic is light, and there are no tight urban turns or low bridges to worry about. Every RVezy host provides a hands-on orientation at pickup, showing you how to operate the slide-outs, water system, generator, and dump valves before you drive off. You can also message the host anytime during your trip with questions. Pro tip: start with a smaller Class C motorhome or a delivered travel trailer for your first outing, and practice backing into your site at Lucius Woods during daylight on arrival day. You have got this.
rvezy.com/blog/first-time-rv-rental-tipsWhat happens if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?
You are covered: 24/7 roadside assistance is included with every RVezy booking, so help is one phone call away whether you are at Lucius Woods, on the Bois Brule, or deep on a Douglas County forest road. The service handles flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, towing, and mechanical breakdowns. Your host is also your first-line resource for quirks specific to their RV (a sticky awning, a tricky propane switch) and most respond quickly via the in-app messenger. RVezy's customer support team is available before, during, and after your trip too. Pro tip: save the roadside number in your phone before leaving home; cell coverage is solid in the village but can be patchy on backroads toward Gordon and Wascott.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityCan I take my Solon Springs RV rental across state lines or into Canada?
Yes, most RVezy hosts in Solon Springs allow travel throughout the lower 48 states, which is great news because you are only about 15 miles from the Minnesota state line. Popular cross-border loops include Duluth and the North Shore of Lake Superior, the Iron Range, and Voyageurs National Park. Travel into Canada (think Thunder Bay or Quetico Provincial Park) is allowed by some hosts only, so message before booking to confirm and review coverage details. Travel into Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals as protection coverage does not extend there. Pro tip: a classic 5-day RV road trip from Solon Springs runs north to Duluth, up the North Shore to Grand Marais, then loops back through the Iron Range, roughly 450 miles total.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat should I budget for fuel on a Solon Springs RV trip?
Fuel is one of the easier line items to estimate. Travel trailers do not burn gas themselves; you will fuel your tow vehicle (typically 10 to 14 MPG). Class C motorhomes average 8 to 12 MPG, and Class A rigs run 6 to 10 MPG. Wisconsin gas prices typically sit near or slightly below the national average, and the Holiday and Kwik Trip stations in Solon Springs and nearby Superior offer easy fill-ups. Pro tip: for a 300-mile weekend loop in a Class C at 10 MPG, budget roughly $110 to $140 in fuel at current Midwest prices. Top off in Superior before heading into the Northwoods, since prices can climb at smaller stations near Gordon and Lake Nebagamon.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book campgrounds near Solon Springs?
Book early to lock in the best sites. Douglas County opens online reservations for Lucius Woods, Gordon Dam, and Mooney Dam in early February for the upcoming standard season, and prime lakefront electric sites at Lucius Woods are typically gone within the first couple of weeks. Wisconsin State Parks such as Pattison and Amnicon Falls (both within an hour) use the Wisconsin DNR reservation system and allow reservations up to 11 months ahead. For July weekends and Music in the Park Saturdays, aim 4 to 6 months out. Pro tip: midweek (Sunday through Wednesday) you can often walk in same-day at Mooney Dam, even in peak summer.
wisconsinstateparks.reserveamerica.com/What are driving conditions like around Solon Springs?
Driving here is wonderfully relaxed. US Highway 53 is a divided four-lane that runs right through Solon Springs, connecting Superior to Eau Claire with gentle grades, wide shoulders, and minimal traffic outside summer Friday afternoons. Local county roads (like County A toward Gordon Dam) are paved and narrower, lined with pine and birch, so watch for deer at dawn and dusk; this is genuine Northwoods country. In winter, snow and black ice are real concerns (annual snowfall averages 60+ inches), which is why most RV rentals here run spring through fall. Pro tip: gas up before turning off Highway 53 and take your time on the forest roads, the scenery is the whole point of a Solon Springs RV trip.
511wi.gov/What amenities will I find at campgrounds near Solon Springs?
You will be well taken care of. Lucius Woods County Park offers electric and water hookups, a sanitary dump station, hot showers, flush toilets, a swimming beach, playground, and the amphitheater for Saturday Music in the Park. Gordon Dam and Mooney Dam County Parks both include electric sites, potable water, and dump stations. Most sites have fire rings and picnic tables, and firewood is sold on-site. Full sewer hookups at individual sites are uncommon in this region, so plan to use the dump station on departure. Pro tip: the Kwik Trip in Solon Springs sells potable water jugs, ice, and propane refills, handy if you need a top-off between campground stays.
douglascountywi.gov/650/CampgroundsWhat is included inside the RV I rent in Solon Springs?
You will be impressed by how move-in ready RVezy rentals are. A typical motorhome rental in Solon Springs comes fully equipped with a queen or king bed, additional sleeping for 4 to 8 (convertible dinettes and bunks), a kitchen with fridge, freezer, stove, microwave, sink, and cookware, plus a full bathroom with toilet and shower. Most include air conditioning, furnace heat, and seatbelts for every traveling passenger. Many hosts add WiFi hotspots, onboard generators, outdoor speakers, and stocked linen kits as included perks or affordable add-ons. Pro tip: filter by Sleeps count to match your family size, and check each listing's amenity list, some Solon Springs hosts even include kayaks or fishing gear so you can hit Upper St. Croix Lake the minute you arrive.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Solon%20Springs%2C%20WisconsinWhat add-ons and options can I get with my Solon Springs RV rental?
Lots of helpful extras make a family RV trip in Solon Springs even easier. Common RVezy add-ons include delivery and setup ($2 to $5 per mile), generator usage (often $3 to $5 per hour beyond a daily allowance), linen and kitchen packages ($50 to $100 flat), bike racks, kayaks, fishing gear, camp chairs, and outdoor grills. Pickup and dropoff usually happen at the host's home in or near Solon Springs, Superior, or Duluth, with many hosts offering flexible rental day timing. Mileage policies vary, look for unlimited mileage listings if you are planning a big loop. Pro tip: message hosts before booking to bundle add-ons; many will discount the package, saving you $50 to $100 on a long weekend.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Solon%20Springs%2C%20WisconsinHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is simple and fully online: no cash, no awkward handoffs. You will pay through the secure RVezy platform with a credit or debit card when you book, and your funds are held safely until the trip starts. A refundable security deposit (typically several hundred to a couple thousand dollars depending on the RV) is pre-authorized on your card before pickup and released after the host confirms the RV came back in good shape. Pro tip: do a quick walkaround video with your host at pickup and dropoff, it documents the RV's condition and helps deposit returns go smoothly. That five-minute habit is the easiest way to make your Solon Springs RV rental experience stress-free start to finish.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in Solon Springs for winter or shoulder-season trips?
Yes, though your selection narrows. Northern Wisconsin winters are no joke (January lows often dip well below 0 F and the Douglas County campgrounds close after Labor Day weekend), so most Solon Springs hosts list their RVs from late April through mid-October. For shoulder-season or winter trips, filter for four-season RVs with heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies, and reliable furnaces, and plan to stay at private parks with year-round full hookups near Duluth or Hayward. Ice fishing on Upper St. Croix Lake and snowmobiling the Tri-County Corridor Trail (which runs right through Solon Springs) make winter genuinely magical. Pro tip: message hosts directly, some will unwinterize an RV for a confirmed booking on shoulder dates.
