Well, we go on a camping/fishing trip every June but wanted to try out Wisconsin parks. I read some reviews on other sites that mentioned a mosquito problem. I've been camping my entire life and have been to Alaska (where they consider the mosquito the state bird) and have never come across such a thriving population. we went through 6 bottles of deep woods off and hunters deet (50% to 98.5% Deet) and were still eaten alive! That was in the parking lot and the hike in camping areas.
the fishing pier was nice and well kept. the area is beautiful. there is a bridge on the way in that goes over the water for a bout a mile and its just breathtaking. also a plus, the water is pretty windy so there werent a lot of mosquitos there.
firewood on site is a good deal, especially since you cant bring it from most other places.
my main problem is that there is a parking sticker requirement. this is for all wisconsin state parks. I booked the trip online and looked up and got out of state fishing licenses and all that. not once did i see anything that said i would have to buy a parking sticker. upon arriving to the park we were told that for our 5 day stay we could either pay for the year ($35) or buy daily passes for $10 each. its not that much if you know what you're signing up for. after driving for 5 hours, its quite a shock.
