However, when I finally stopped, I was extremely surprised to see that it has an beautiful beach area, hiking trails, Arboretum, and some of the best mountain biking trails around! Seriously- the biking was fun! Everything was clean, clearly marked and ready for recreation. I did not camp but walked through the camping grounds and thought everything looked natural, spacious and they even have some small cabins for rent. I will definitely be back!

At first glance this place this campground seems quite nice; nice spacious level sites, with…read moreelectric. you aren't shoe horned in on top of each other and you really can't hear one another. the bathrooms by us are plenty big enough with separate individual showers. you have a typical dump and fill station on your way into your site, which is also where you'll find the garbage dumpsters. this place is clean and pretty well manicured. some easy little hiking trails to boot. our site is quite well developed and plenty of shade. The bad on our first day our new cooler was stolen, my husband had some one banging on the shower door like they were the police, and it felt like someone was outside our camper while I was alone and showering. (Antigo has quite the theft problem, so if you value you anything you have, chain it down or lock it up) The woman at the office while empathetic to our plight and apologetic, did advise me the other folks had made complaints about noise and that she would advise Tom of what happened and even asked if we wanted to give her a description of the cooler. It was our fault we should have locked it up, we wont make that mistake again. We however no longer feel comfortable here and feel pressured to not be gone long... which is sad. The showers are cleanish..the same hair was on the same soap dispenser for at least two days and the pressure is to hard and the heads are not adjustable... you'll need at minimum 2 dollars in quarters to get at best an 8-10 min shower. ps there is no buzzer or audible noise in any of the showers to let you know to add more money. Which btw is not posted on their website or the mailer form I had to fill out not on their website... so bring quarters if you want to shower in theirs. While I'm thankful I have a shower in my camper; it's not a full hook up campground; which means you'll need to fill your tanks hook up, dump maybe more than once if you are a party of more than 2. When I checked out and asked them if anyone found my soap and shampoo, he asked what brand it was and then scratched his neck, looked away and said "nope never heard of that" not sure about you but I'm a fan of body language... I'm not sorry to be leaving this place. This place reminded me very quickly of the fact that the northwoods folks are very nice and polite to one another as they know each other, but once they see your out of state vehicles plates out comes the rude behavior. The only way I'd recommend this place is if you are local to wisconsin only.

Simply the most beautiful spot in all of Wisconsin. This park has a nice campground along the…read morePeshtigo River, and the park itself has trails snaking all over. Stop in here for a breathtaking view of the Peshtigo from one of the picturesque foot bridges that criss cross the numerous islands and side channels and the entrance of Swamp Creek into the Peshtigo. The islands themselves have quaint little cabins that can be used to protect your food from the insects and the elements during a summer picnic, party, or family reunion. There are numerous grills and firepit/grills with chimneys. These things are so cool! The park looks like it should be teaming with trout because it is home to every type of prime trout habitat. Within 100 yards there are rapids, riffles, pools, runs, pocket water, sand and boulder structure, timber, and more. However, I have yet to ever see much less hook into anything. But it is nice to enjoy such a beautiful scene. There is a trail that connects this park to Goodman Park. Be careful to go left when nearing the beaver dam, as the trail skirts the damn, and it is treacherous if you are in a hurry.

We got engaged during our weekend trip up north and it was perfect to come back to the campground, enjoy our cabin and have a nice fire. It was even more special to share our experiences of the day with others around the campground. They have a great team that helps them in the summer, especially Eddy and his family. We went Rafting on the Wolf river with Eddy and he is such an interesting, knowledgeable, and fun guide. Our trip down the river was more than just a fun recreational activity as he had lots of good advice and clues for us to have a successful marriage. Big Smokey Falls rafting company, who they work with, is a fantastic partner. We also did a solo tubing trip on a more calm section of the river and transportation was provided for us! River Forest Campground also has a new music venue in the back corner of the property that would be a great place to hold small outdoor events, live bands, or even weddings! I would highly recommend a getaway here!

Thornton's was our campsite and cabin site, our caterers, our watering hole and our rafting guides. I could not have been more pleased with their services and I found their pricing to be extremely reasonable. As a first time camper as an adult, I found their site very clean, well maintained and quiet. Well, quiet after 2am. The Saturday night DJ made turning it in early near impossible. His chose selections which appealed to everyone. The songs kept the crowding growing and going. Definitely a great time had by all and we agreed there is a return trip in our future. *** wifi is available near the bar area but we were all unable to use it because no one knew the code. It's frustrating but also helpful. It forced us all to pry ourselves away from technology temporarily.

Although we hate it due to lack of preparation, but it was indeed, one of the memorable experiences. At night, we built the camp fire and watching the stars. The lack of hot water and electricity were major issues for us. The weather temp was pretty cold in the morning (around low 50s), and there was no hot water for us to take a shower. Also, very limited power outlets..... But what hell, this is my 1st time and camping is suppose to be living away from the civilization and technologies. I really enjoy the stay at Wolf River Campground, and I highly recommend everyone and anyone to do it. PS: By the way, the rafting was 6.3 miles. So make sure you wear like winter because you will get wet, and the water is going to splash you with no mercy + beer is allowed

Much better choice in every way compared to raft n rest down the roadread more

Definitely a fan of this place. Was a little skeptical at first because I couldn't find any reviews…read morebut my group took a gamble and it wasn't too shabby. For comparison purposes, I'll compare it to Thornton's camping, which is like an hour north east of this place. First getting there, we got a little lost. Google maps told us to go to a place that was about 10 minutes away. There was about 1 or 2 signs saying Raft N Rest this way but our driver missed them. Drove in and you have to stop and check in at a trailer/home in the front. It's $12 per night and you have to pay upfront. Minimum 2 nights per reservation. Some people in out group just had to drive up from Chicago on that Friday to meet the minimum. So driving around the campgrounds, it's a lot smaller that Thornton's. Campsites are literally right next to one another with nothing really to separate them which sucked cause it gets kind of noisy at night with music playing and people yelling. They did have electricity and running water at each campsite though which Thornton's didn't have. They have lit bathrooms which is nice and it is surprisingly pretty clean in there too. Showers are $1 in quarters for 5 minutes, and then i think 1 more minute for every extra quarter. You can just park on your campsite which is convenient. There is a hammock display where you can just lay out, and they also have a volleyball court if you wanted to play. One thing I didn't like is that the firt pits were in ground and pretty small. This year was ok cause my group was only 8 people, but If I had my normal 16ish people, then that would have sucked. Thornton's had just an area to put the fire which was pretty sweet. Here they have bags of ice for 2.50 and wood at 7 per bundle. Smaller pieces of wood as compared to the other one, but that probably because of the smaller pits. We lazy rivered down the Wolf River through Bob and Joni's which is walking distance from the campgrounds. That's also where we ate dinner. Other than that, not sure what other restaurants are in the area. Over all it wasn't too bad, and still better than some IL campgrounds I've been too. Glad to be the first review here.
