"Location and electric"
During our Badlands visit in early September the temperatures were soaring and hitting 100 degrees. Thus, we needed a site with electric and dropped in without a reservation. The location is great with fabulous views in all directions. The...

"We can see why this is Wisconsin's most popular state park"
This densely wooded state park offers lots to do; from boating, fishing, and swimming in Devil's Lake to amazing hiking and nearby sights. The only reason I'm not giving it a five star rating is due to the low tree branches and uneven sites. ...

"Great overnight stop"
The draw to Balmorhea SP is the huge spring fed pool. We arrived on a very cool November day thus did not test it out. This park is pretty much in the middle of nowhere. So visit with plenty of food and gas.
The park offers cable TV for an...
