Campgrounds and RV parks near Wausaukee, WI

Wausaukee sits in Marinette County in northeast Wisconsin, a rural stretch of Northwoods forest, small lakes, and the free-flowing Peshtigo and Menominee rivers. Marinette County is known locally as the Waterfalls Capital of Wisconsin, with more than a dozen cascades in the county, which makes the area a practical base for RV renters looking for water access without long drives. Campground options near town range from village-run parks to private riverside resorts and a full-service state park. Evergreen Park & Campground sits just north of the Village of Wausaukee, jointly operated by the township and village, while Timberline Resort and Campground and Peshtigo River Campground LLC are within an easy drive along the Peshtigo. Chalk Hills Campground lies east on the Menominee River, and Governor Thompson State Park anchors the region about 15 miles northwest of Crivitz to the southwest. Regional terrain features mixed northern hardwood forests interspersed with small glacial lakes and river flowages, so most sites are wooded with moderate shade and level pads suitable for travel trailers and motorhomes.

Governor Thompson State Park uses the Wisconsin state reservation system. Most campsites can be reserved up to 11 months in advance, but 10 of them are held for first-come, first-served use, and the three boat-in sites are open year-round. Reservations run through wisconsin.goingtocamp.com. A Wisconsin state park vehicle admission sticker is required and is purchased separately from the site reservation. Private campgrounds handle bookings directly. Chalk Hills Campground takes reservations by phone or email, and Peshtigo River Campground, Timberline Resort and Campground, and Evergreen Park & Campground each accept reservations through their own offices or websites. Book summer weekends several weeks ahead for electric sites suitable for RV rentals, and confirm hookup type, rig-length limits, and check-in windows before arrival.
