10 Bodies of Water in Wisconsin That You Shouldn't Miss
When you think “adventure travel” you probably think of far-flung places like Belize and Alaska—not Wisconsin. But if you’re an outdoor adventurer, you’ll find plenty of places to explore in Wisconsin. A vacation in Wisconsin can put you close to the Kettle Moraine State Forest, which has excellent biking trails. Or choose Wisconsin’s Apostle Islands—kayakers will love exploring Lake Superior’s many caves and shipwrecks.
Packers fans don’t wear those cheese-wedge hats for nothing! Foodies will love tasting as many of Wisconsin’s artisanal cheeses as possible. Either drive from cheesemaker to cheesemaker, or choose a Wisconsin vacation in a town with a good farmers’ market—then the cheesemakers bring their wares to you. And what goes better with artisanal cheese than craft beer? In Milwaukee, visit the Lakefront and Sprecher Breweries for tours and tastings.
Wisconsin Dells is a classic family vacation destination. A vacation in Wisconsin Dells will put you close to all the excitement—you’ll have to tear the kids away from the theme parks, wave pools and water parks in Wisconsin Dells!
Lake Geneva boasts clean beaches, golf, and a small-town feel that definitely appeals to city dwellers—it’s a popular getaway for residents of Chicago.

Eagle viewing especially during cold icy mid-winter superb below the Sauk Prairie Dam when open water becomes scarce and open water persists there. Great viewing at VFW Park/boat launch in Prairie du Sac or at the dam site half a mile upstream. If skiing at Devils Head or Cascade Mountain a 10 to 15 mile trip into Sauk City/Prairie du Sac can be well worth it for the eagle viewing or just the scenic beauty!

The campground is not at the Eau Galle Dam Road address but not far (1-2 miles as the crow flies) but it is a 10 mile drive to Dugan Road (off CR-NN south of CR-N) where the campground is actually located so your GPS will mislead you if you use the W105 Eau Galle Dam Road address. The camp sites are variable in size (check length) and with solid electric, no water but water is available to fill up and they have nice toilets, showers and dump. You are "in the woods" and generally not really close to your neighboring campers. A good place to kick back and relax. The rangers are friendly and quite helpful when needed. It's a few miles to the town of Spring Valley which has a few lunch places and smallish grocery shopping. Worth a visit in your car if you want to get out and look around.
