The sites are super tiny and not at all private. We came during the week in June, so it wasn't super packed and we had empty sites on either side of us. If it had been busier our experience would have been much different. We're spoiled by the private campgrounds that we visited in Door County. This one is very much not that. However, everyone was nice and we were fortunate enough to have had a decent enough time.

It is 95% seasonals including many mobile homes. Owners are never around and seldom is anyone in or at the office. Upon checking out, they never asked how our stay was. The sites are all sand like a beach. In fact, there was more sand at our sites than at the beach which is very small. The lake is cute but when you're in the north woods, that's not hard to find. The shoreline (grass area) hasn't been mowed in weeks. The bathroom was disgusting- moldy and mildewy with mice and all. Yet you have to pay for showers? We showered in our camper and avoided the bathroom. Never once did we see anyone come clean it either. Quiet hour- no such thing here. People get loud after 10 and nobody cares.

I loved…read morethat even though there were many sites available, it didn't look like it - winding tree-covered trails to screen the campsites. It's built on the site of an old boys camp (Camp Strongheart). Lots of preserved history - make sure to view the memorabilia at The Lodge when you check in. We came here for a family get-together this fall and our cabin on Tomahawk Lake was clean and comfy (and the shower water pressure was the best). The staff was very accommodating and fast to reply. You won't find a better place to stay in the North Woods (and we've been to a few places over the years). I was grateful for the on-site general store so we didn't have to go into town for firewood etc. And visiting the bar/restaurant next door was a welcome respite after a day of biking the nearby trails. The fish was great. We didn't stay at a campsite, but talked with RVers who loved the fact that they weren't crammed together and everyone was so friendly. We rented a pontoon boat and were able to spend a day cruising the many connected local lakes to Minocqua, where we had a choice of great local restaurants to dock at for a bite to eat. My husband, who is a mechanic, appreciated that the boat was well taken care of. There were also other types of watercraft available to rent. Overall, Indian Shores made for a great North Woods getaway and we are looking forward to coming back next year.

MUCH more crowded MUCH closer to neighbors MUCH more expensive MUCH to many large trees with canopies that shade the sites AND provide ample amounts of tree sap on everything. WAY to many people making way to much noise without regard for neighbors. WAY to many people on a site. Rarely did anyone express a "hello" or any common civility. Camping sure isn't what it used to be..!

You couldn't even sit in it for fear of what you may be sitting on. The outside of the camper was just as disgusting. I guess it never occurred to the campground owners to power wash it. I spent at least two hours cleaning and disinfecting the camper that we were told was new. Lies. If I was on this trip alone, I would have left immediately. Reluctantly I paid my bill - almost $200 a night! I still feel like disputing with my charge card company because we were lied to and taken advantage of. Not sure how they live with themselves renting this camper to people. When I went to the office to complain, they had the nerve to tell me it was cleaned. I am not an idiot.

With the new ownership of this campground, they appear to be going above and beyond to be sure their campground is updated. We chose this campground in 2015 and are so pleased that we did. The host is easy to work with but assures that all the campers are treated well and the owner continues to improve the campground. We love having the entire Chain O'Lakes at our disposal. The golf course is just down the road, so when we have guests they an golf also. Several of their docks are new and improved. Also, having the Tiki Bar so close offers food and a fun place to hang out if you just need something different. It was absolutely the right choice for us.

We spent most…read moreof our time at our friends lake house, but we did get a little bit of time to walk around the campground and enjoy some of the Lakeside views. We opted to Moveto a full hookup sore which is further from the lake. The sites by the lake only have water and electric and we would've had to unhook and visit the dump station unfortunately so a full hook up site was way more convenient. We were insight 62 which is nice because it has a large grassy area. We paid $70/nite- I know they have better rates for longer stays We did have a picnic table and a fire pit and had a little bit of time to sit outside and enjoy it There is a really nice camp store and they do have some frozen items for warm-up along with s'mores and toys and shirts, and such Out in front of the office in store is a Beautiful lakefront area- they have Adirondack chairs sit here so you can avoid the views as well as as a beach with a swimming area although they do have assigned warning you that swimmers itch may be present- I had to look that one up since we're not from around here They also had a really nice basketball court and a bounce pad for the kids. This is definitely a family campground and many families were having gatherings while we were there. While I don't have any complaints for the campground. I will say that for all six nights we were here, not many people adhered to the quiet hours policy. We just turned the overhead fan on to douse out the noise as we didn't feel like disrupting anyone's family parties, but just be prepared for that. We did not use the laundry facilities or shower houses

We just happen to get #20. Uneven, no where to put your things out. To make matters worse, both sites you had to walk to your fire pit. How tacky. You could hear all conversations around you. I don't get how this campground was rated a 4.9 out of 5.0. They call it peaceful pines, there is NO peace. The boat launch is right there. Noisy from sunrise to sunset. If that didn't get to you, there is a major road with a lot of noisy traffic. We watched two sites across the way become vacant the day before we left. Check out 10 sharp, but I never saw anyone come out to the sites to check if it was ready for the next campers. Don't you think it could have been cleaned, maybe raked, something. Now the owners were pleasant, but man you talk about noise, from drilling, sawing, banging. I understand they have to work around the campground, but could the majority of the work wait until mid to late fall? We called before coming to find out if there was a place to take our dog to the water. Was told "Oh yes"! Down by the boat landing, take a right (risk your life with tree limbs). There is NO PLACE to take your dog. No beaches allow dogs. They tend to cater to the seasonal people and their cabins. It's sad that our first time will be our last time. It's sad you gave us that miserable site. There is nothing peaceful about Peaceful Pines Resort
