I went camping with a group of family and friends. The campground is very nice and I found everyone there to be helpful and friendly. There were fun activities in the evenings. I saw some other bad reviews before leaving for my trip, so I figured I should leave a positive review. There are rules at the campground. This seems to be the biggest complaint. If you read and follow the rules, you will have a good time. The rules are in place to ensure everyone can have a safe and enjoyable stay. Additionally, we camped during a rainy weekend. One of the campsites flooded, and the staff were kind enough to let my friends move to a different unoccupied site. read more

The whole purpose of my trip is to go tubing down the river. However, drinks and coolers are not allowed on the bus to the drop off site. Who goes tubing and not drink? read more

Such a great campground. Included in your price is tubing (they drive you and provide everything needed), a petting farm area (free food), an amazing filtered lake, pool, and hiking trail. We stayed Sun-Wed and it wasn't crowded. Liked it so much me are booking for the following week. Super clean, amazing hosts and employees. I really can't say enough! Oh - you'd think being on the River, mosquitos would eat you up. NOT THE CASE! We didn't need to use the pop up once. read more

Don't even think about staying here! We had made reservations for 4 nights, but due to bad weather forecast for the time we would be there, called to reschedule. According to their website they would give a refund for a campground credit, less one nights stay. OK, we were fine with that. When we called, the employee said there would be no refunds. What?? We explained that was not our understanding. She said she didn't make the rules and that change was made on Sept. 29, 2023. They did NOT update the website--said it was old and out of date! We were planning to hike with others, but guests are not allowed. No more than one camping unit is allowed--not even a pup tent. So we canceled and ate our $168. Don't make the same mistake we did! read more

This campground is very nice. Lots of complaints here about the staff but we have been coming for a few years and they have always been very nice and pleasant. The playgrounds which our children play on are always working and clean. The newer area around the pond is all sun but very nice and clean as well. Others have said there is no shade here, that is true around the pond but not true everywhere else at this campsite. The booking advises no sun around the pond so people shouldn't be surprised. That's all the good stuff, only complaints are the cancellation policy and they will charge you a full day rate to check in more than an hour early. Besides those two items we really enjoy this campground. Highly recommend. read more

Well it's been awhile since I've visited but laying in my bed I'm planning another activity packed family camping adventure at crazy horse campground! The staff is friendly and the guests were kind. I had help putting up my tent when I struggled hehe. I enjoyed the poolside Restaurant that served burgers, fries, and other fast foods. We are there both days so we can spend as much time possible swimming, golfing, kayaking, lazy river tubing and visiting the animals. I will be back soon! Enjoy the sunshine, Jennah read more

Crazy Horse Campground - About to go kayaking :) - Campgrounds Near Me - Brodhead, Wisconsin

worst campground we ever visit. stuff is not friendly and not trained well.Very strict rules. can't even have rope to dry your wet cloths, only one car per site and must park far away from your site.No hammock allowed! no shady spots! Jumping pillow broken.They don't care about customers! they told us they are busy on weekends so they don't care.we don't recommend this campground anybody!If there is option for no star I would mark 0. Stay away from this campground. For our camping carrier we never experienced such a rude stuff! read more

Seems nice. Really packed them in on Memorial Day weekend. Campground is clean with most of the bathhouse average or a little better than most. Really nice to have so many activities on site and to have a store with a kitchen and bar. The down side is we we given a site with power and water but the electric was just an outlet, no breaker. First outlet didn't work, second one next to us seemed to work. The water connection was pointed almost straight up in the air and about 4 foot off the ground which made the connection work kind of funky. The main downfall was the wood. You are required to only by their wood but it is so wet, it will not burn! This picture shows our fire of 5 logs, started at 7pm with help of a lot of cardboard, still smoldering at 8:00 the next day! I think with a little more work, this will be a great place! read more

Crazy Horse Campground - Campgrounds Near Me - Brodhead, Wisconsin

Very high priced for the few amenities they offer. Make sure to reserve ASAP for floating on the river, you pay to float as part of the fee but it books up right when you can register for the day. Booked RV spot and tent spot, they said two cars at the tent site was fine, nope....security was rude to our kids about an extra car while other sites were left alone.....no my kids didn't do anything to deserve the harassment two nights in a row for the extra car or quietly sitting at the fire at 11pm while other tent sites were loud and they left them alone. Only time they were at their tent was to chill before bed by a fire and sleep and get harassed by security. Left numerous messages before our stay and was never called back. Very disappointed and won't be returning, way to high priced for what it is read more

I use to recommend this campground to any beginners to river floating. After this weekend with staff that made you feel like inconvenience, I'm embarrassed to say I been camping here the last 4years. Extremely unprofessional for staff to swear at you when you have children with you. All it takes a nice warning to say we are in a wrong, not swear words. There are better family friendly campgrounds with tubing rentals around. We will no longer be returning here read more

This place is literally my version of hell. I get one vacation a year. ONE. This year, the boyfriend and I decided to go camping. Enter: Groupon for Crazy Horse. I was stoked, never been camping before. I love to get away from the city. Little did I know, this place is LOUDER than the city. We were basically on top of the people next to us, luckily they were nice. That wasn't the issue. A few families had the campsites across the path from us. A few loud, drunken familes with annoying kids SCREAMING and running and scootering around. They brought a PROJECTOR out and were watching a gdamn movie on full blast. It was like being at a damn drive in. I wouldn't be upset and giving this place a bad review if I hadn't called TWICE to complain. I gave them our lot number and everything. No one ever came!!!! We reserved two nights. We left at 8am after the first night. We were there for 12 hours. DO NOT GO HERE read more

We had a great time here! The tubing trip they offer down the Sugar River is great. Store was nice and people were friendly. Dog friendly place and nice band playing music last weekend. We will be back! read more

This is a great campground with very nice sized lots. The pool is a bit small. The store staff are all very nice although there's one young man that needs to smile and be friendly with guests. The petting zoo is just some goats, a donkey and mini horse behind a fence. There really is no petting. The river tubing is fun although it stinks that we can't take a cooler. It would be fun for adults. . I understand why they don't allow it since some people don't throw their garbage away. Overall this is a nice campground but a bit over priced for what you get. read more

I can not say enough! The new owners are amazing! There is so much to do in the area and at the campground. Finally a place that even my husband agreed to go seasonal! Please don't hesitate to try it yourself! Patti and Doug will amaze you too! read more

We booked this trip last year. Place looked really nice on Facebook. However, the girl checking us in had no clue how to check in campers. Asked for our names, looked at a sheet said are you a seasonal or ??? Then asked if we stilled owed money, wait what? We had to pay for our site when we booked last year. Gave us a map didn't tell us our campsite number or nothing. Had to ask her what campsite we were on. We have never been to a campground where they don't give you some type of parking pass. Also was getting tons of posts on Facebook that they have 5G WiFi, that's a joke it won't keep you on and trying to do work on a computer your unable too. It's slows your phones and computers to snails/turtles pace. We had issues after pulling in and went to the store if someone could help us with our situation, they said NO. No one is allowed to help you due to insurance issues. Really??? I worked at a KOA for several years and when customers came in with a camper issue the owner or maintenance was right there trying to help them. Had to call a friend to come out to the camp ground to help us. Staff is extremely rude to weekenders. Also way to many people cutting through your campsite , no respect. On a positive note. Lots of activities for kids (if you have kids). Bathrooms and showers are very clean, but there is nothing in the shower like a a table to out your items on, so you have to lay everything on the floors. Doubt if we will go back read more

Campers beware! Rain flooded the campground and they refuse to issue refunds! I do not suggest camping a place that doesn't take care of their campers. read more

If I could give this place a negative 5 stars, I certainly would. They nickel and dime you out of a lot of money. We paid for the campsite @ $47/night x 3. We arrived a little early @ noon (normal check-in is 3pm) and they charged us an additional $10. We had 2 vehicles and we had to pay additional for both vehicles x 3 nights = $. We had to pay $ for each adult x 3 nights, and an additional $ for each child x 3 nights. If we had a dog, it would have been another $ x 3 nights per dog. So what do you get for all that? You get a campsite that was way too small for our 30ft trailer with inadequate electrical that caused our air conditioner to blow something out. We got someone out there to fix it, but then they came by and yelled at us because the were not allowing any visitors. Their main feature is tubing/kayaking down the Sugar River. You have to sign up for a time slot but get there early or you won't get a time on a busy weekend. They take you up the river about a mile and drop you off. It lasted maybe 30-minutes and we were back at the campground. We couldn't go again that day because the slots were all filled. We decided to go to the pool instead but it was small and so full of small children. There were no lounge chairs or anything to sit on except the concrete side of the pool. You also get very full porta-potties, and on our last morning we got a 7am wake-up call from the guys trimming the trees with their chain saws right outside our bedroom window. This place is a very unfriendly RIP-OFF! read more

We were river rafting and happened to get off at their port. We had never been before and didn't think it was a big deal. WRONG. Immediately after getting out of the water, an employee (and I use that term loosely ) asked if we were camping there. We politely replied "no" and told them we were sorry and were leaving. He promptly halted our efforts and said, "If you come back here again without paying, the owner will call the police and they will issue a $263 ticket for trespassing". We thought that was way over the top, but we were leaving anyway. As soon as we got off the property headed toward our launch site, an officer stopped us and asked if we were the ones 'making trouble' at camp crazy horse. After about an hour of being detained, we were still issued citations. EVEN THOUGH WE DID WHAT WE WERE SUPPOSED TO! Long story short, they told us to leave, we left, and we still got $263 trespassing citations. I have not and never will stay at this campground and I strongly urge everyone else not to either. read more

Very nice setting. Camping fee includes all activities including tubing, kayaks, and canoes, mini golf. Lots if activities for the kids including petting zoo, skateboard park, pool, organized activities. Campsites are large. Friendly staff. Cabins are nice and entire facility is in good shape and very clean. We've camped here three or four times and each time was great. read more

If you're looking for a nice place, MOVE ALONG! There is not one single friendly staffer, restrooms were out of toilet paper. When I asked when the showers would be available, the lady at the convenience store stated "I don't know, the cleaning lady called in sick." If you're tubing or kayaking, don't expect a friendly welcome! That staffer doesn't even make eye contact, just snatches up your items and plops back down in his chair. It's too bad, the campground itself is nice, the staffers make it a terrible-TERRIBLE experience. read more

This campground was horrible. It is old, rundown and huge. Although the campground is huge, it has only 3 flush toilets and 3 showers for the entire campground. There are port-a-potties but they were filthy. There was feces wiped on the wall for our entire stay, even after the staff "cleaned" them. The showers are filthy..they do not clean them..instead of washing the walls, they paint over the dirt. This brings to mind another comment...we arrived on Wednesday, on Thursday, only 1 shower was available as they PAINTED the shower stalls. The staff was abnoxious. When we reported that the one electrical outlet in the bathroom did not work, the woman said "Thank you for understanding that our restrooms are heavily used". When we explained that we paid a lot of money to have ammenities like electricity and water available, she said the same thing "Thanks for your understanding..I guess you'll have "CAMPER HAIR" for your stay". Stay away..spend your money elsewhere. read more

This campground is a lot of fun. We've been here numerous times and are going again this summer. Definitely expect to see people having fun, being friendly and possibly noisy. This is a family campground so bring your kids and let them go run off and play! :) Lots for them to do. Nothing is fancy here but it's camping, so it's best to just appreciate the fact that they even have showers and flushable toilets. The cottages are tiny but nice enough. :) It's not cheap but if you bring your kids and you like to go tubing and kayaking a lot, you'll get your money's worth. read more

If I could give this campground a negative 5 stars, I certainly would. The way they nickel and dime you for everything is almost criminal. First, you pay for the site. Then you pay additional for each person who will be camping. If you have more than 1 vehicle, you pay extra for that. Now, multiply those numbers by the number of nights you're planning on staying. If you have a friend or relative stop by for the day, that's another $25/person. What started out as $198 for 3 nights, ended up costing us over $500. Their big draw is tubing on the Sugar River. You have to sign up for a time slot. On a nice, hot weekend like we had, they were limiting everyone to just one time. They take you up river and you float down to the campground. The whole thing last about 20 minutes and you're done. So basically we paid all that money for a 20 minutes float down the river. Lastly, there is something really screwed up with their electrical plug-ins. We had to get a repair person out to our camper because our air conditioner wasn't working. The repair person said something with the electrical blew out something in our air conditioner. That cost us another $200. The real kicker . . . they came by our campsite and told us we were in violation of the rules because our repair person didn't pay the visitor fee. Come on!!!! The pool was small and PACKED with small children. No social distancing there. Campsites are small and you're crowded in. We had to buy firewood from them @ $1 each log. Every time we threw another log on the fire, I saw dollar signs going up in smoke. I know you're not suppose to transport firewood, but I thought it was allowed if it was from within the same county. This place is a money pit and definitely not worth it. read more

We will NEVER go to this campground!!!!! They charge for BREATHING at this campground!!! They charge a rate for each person that stays there over the initial fee!!! They charge weekend rate for THURSDAYS if its close to a holiday!!! Then they demand that you stay for a minimum of 3 days for the holiday so they can collect more $$$$$$!!! We have stayed at a lot of campgrounds that are a lot nicer than this one and they don't charge ALL OF THESE FEES!! Terrible! They ought to be ashamed of themselves!!! read more

As a first timer to this campgroudn, we went there with the attitude of typical family RV campground. Well the staff was super friendly and our kids were never "bored". Tons of activities for little ones, teenagers, and adults. Will definitely go back. read more

This is a nice campground. We have camped here several times, but probably not in the last 4-5 years. We did not have any interaction with the staff unless we sought it out at the office/store. This is how we like it and we are good with this. We saw some reviews where there was a security person who took their job a little bit too seriously, this was NOT our experience. The campground is well maintained and kept up. They have clear and concise policies on golf carts, wood, tubing and electrical service. This was apparent in the 5 separate emails I received on each subject. Electrical Service: we received an email on this, but our unit is a 2017 model that had a 4 prong which needed a bigger adapter at a cost of $25 at the store. If you only need a smaller adapter it is only $5.26 + tax. Credit cards are charged on extra % if you use them for purchases here. Plan on paying cash. Amenities: One of the "extra" charges are a per person fee of $8/person/day for swimming pool, 9 hole mini golf, skate park, jumping pillow, batting cages, and 1 hour tube, canoe, or kayak floats. You do get a ride and a tube down the Sugar River for about an hour. This charge is a bummer if you do not participate in any of these. It would be nice if they averaged the costs out and included it in the price of camping in general. In my experience, we have intended on tubing several times and could not due to the river being too high. This time, we were able to enjoy a peaceful float on down the river and good times with family. read more

If you go camping, expect some noise and kids! You would expect that since they know which sites flood, they wouldn't let you camp there. Not this group, they'll fill the place up regardless and pretend it's not their problem that it rained. Raining is one thing, selling you a place that has an impending disaster is another. There was a large group of scouts and they all got swamped. NO ONE TOLD THEM THE SITES WOULD FLOOD IF IT RAINED HARD! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? ABUNCH OF CHILDREN PUT IN HARMS WAY! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE? These people know, they are not stupid, sorry, yes they are! Always ask if it looks like rain, "which sites get flooded?". The place is okay if the sun is out and you don't mind kids racing around on golf carts. The place has limited showering facilities but it seems to work out. It has plenty of amenities but, they are weathered and worn. People are friendly but it can get loud at times. I'm having a hard time considering ever going back there. We never did get to go canoeing because they said it was too risky, even though other people from other camps were having a good time on the river. I agree that safety comes 1st and our area got hit with about 4 inches of rain. When it rains in Madison Wisconsin, it dumps into that river, so it is fast moving to some degree after all of that. Overall we made the best of it, and toughed it out, but they have enough business where they don't care if a handful ever come back or not. In retrospect, It is probably my last time since there are far too many better places to camp. The majority come from Illinois since it's 15 min. across the border. read more

This place touts itself as being luxurious and family-friendly, and even charges as such, but in no way is it either. We got in late Friday night to drunks running around with beers in hand, when we complained they told us to call security, on everyone? We were woken up by people screaming around 6am. By 9am the pool was literally over flowing. Their mini golf range is disintegrating. To top if off, the staff is extremely rude. We were waiting in line in the office and got to hear Peg insult customers before our turn. The man at front gate laughed when he told us the river was closed, despite it being open 18 minutes up river at another campsite. read more

Let me start off by saying my family has been coming to Crazy Horse for over seven years. We usually booked the lower level with other long time Crazy Horse campers/family members. We always had a nice time. We are pretty low key campers. We have three kids so even though we usually camp in groups, it's all about the kids having fun. Don't get me wrong, the adults have fun too, but we all just like to have a good time and spend time with family and friends. Anyway, the last few years coming to Crazy Horse has had a very different feel to it. It no longer has that welcoming feel that attracts people. It has quite the opposite feel really. I almost get the impression they don't want campers to come. (I know it sounds strange) the staff are rude and treated us really snotty. (Except Janet, she was really nice) We encountered problems right from the beginning. Our friends texted while we were in route and said they have been yelled at twice already. Once for their camper not facing north. Who knew? The site was plenty big enough to face what ever way they wanted it to. We were with two other campers so we wanted to respectfully face each other. We all have children and it's easier to do meals and watch the kids that way. Anyway, we pulled in and were also told the same thing. My husband was slightly irritated from them yelling at our group told the staff member to go get a manager. This is when the famous Randy pulled up, or as I like to call him "The Park nazi" Apparently, Randy has quite the reputation for being difficult with campers. I'm assuming he has a power trip going on. Back in the day, he was only in charge of tubers. He will circle your campsite just waiting for the campers to make a mistake or make up a rule off the top of his head to bust you at something. It's really quite strange. I felt like he could almost be in the tall weeds with binoculars spying at campers. (Not kidding) He also has a little minion that rides along with him on his golf cart. He's training them to do the same thing. It's like they see campers as trouble and go to great lengths to drive them out. Keep in mind after they charge your card they don't care. So Randy pulled up and demanded our camper be facing north. We tried reasoning with him momentarily but there was no reasoning. To avoid an argument we faced our camper to the north. The next day we did the one activity for the kids. That was it. One activity. Then we went tubing. When we walked up they asked us how many. I said 9, they said oh we will never fit you all in one van. They finally figure it out and we leave. Earlier, before we left my husband took a small cooler to the river landing so we could take water and soda for the kids. It was hot out. The tube ride is about two hours. We also had sunscreen, Tylenol, and 4 beers! Keep in mind this was not a cooler stuffed with beer and mixed drinks so we could get all drunk with our five children. It was the bare necessities in my book. We thought if we transported it up to the landing we would be ok. The Crazy Horse policy is no coolers in they're tubes and they will not transport them! We weren't trying to be deceptive, like I said, bare necessities! My husband grabs the tiny blue and white cooler. The staff member said um sir I can't let you do that! We all look at him and I said we just have our things in the cooler. I told him my husbands phone was in it, water, Tylenol, pop, etc. He didn't care he still said no. I asked when when they changed they're policy? We took the cooler ourselves. We were going to hold on to it. My husband always walks the river to keep the tubes going straight. You can drink what ever you want on the public river. This is just another rule Crazy Horse imposed to control the campers. We left it on shore and my husband was really mad! He eventually swam back and walked the cooler. He got nettles all over his legs. We weren't about to leave a cooler with an IPhone and other belongings in it at the shore. When we arrived at the landing to Crazy Horse Randy was waiting for us. He asked where the missing tuber was. I said the tuber you are referring to is my husband, and he walked the cooler back to our campsite. He looked at me with a half smile and said I will tell you what, you guys have 30 minutes to pack your stuff and leave our campground. I was livid. I said are you kidding me? Clearly he wasn't. I told him what I thought of him and we all went and packed up our campers. The kids were upset, the adults were mad! What were we supposed to do? I quickly thought of another campground up the road, Sweet Minihaha. We had never been there. We normally don't get kicked out of campgrounds lol.. I called told them the situation. They were so accommodation to us. They set us all up together for $25 water/electric! We paid $174 for two days/family of 5 at Crazy Horse. Long story short, Sweet Minihaha was inviting and friendly to us! Great weekend after all! Thanks Sweet Minihaha! read more

Family friendly, lots to do for the kids. Great for setting up a projector and having a campfire-lit movie night with friends and family. We had some wackos in the site across from us that talked a lot about their dogs but otherwise we will definitely go back! read more

We love this place! The staff is very friendly and we enjoy the tubing, kayaking and all the other activities. We go at least 2/yr.. We typically stay in the full hook-up row. At one time we stayed in the back area in the dead-end row with deluxe cabins across from the camp sites and that was really nice (some members of the family had rented a cabin). read more

Maybe because I'm a seasoned camper and know that camping is a late-night party, though we did find this place a bit quiet for our liking. We stayed there over Halloween 2011 and found the place very nice and not loud at all, even thought they were packed solid. We have a travel-trailer so did not have to use the showers and cannot comment fairly on those but we did stop in there and didn't see anything gross like the other comments. They did have a schedule mix-up upon our arrival but provided us with something right along the river so that we didn't have to turn around and drive 3 hours home and didn't charge us extra for what they consider a "premium" site (even though it doesn't have full-hookup, which sort of made us wonder why it would be "premium"). Once we moved to the full-hook up site, that one was a bit more rocky than I'd like but we really liked this place enough to consider it for a future "perm" site for our travel trailer. My kids loved the jumping pillow, it was too cold to swim but they enjoyed the play grounds and the Halloween decorations too. We are definitely going again soon. read more

I love camping, but not here! I paid a premium price for a site on the river with electric. Campers beware - they provide 30amp 220v service along the river. We went to the camp store to borrow a converter. They sell them, but they were out. There was nothing premium about this site. I asked for the cost of elect to be credited to our account. Nope! The owner told me that I must never camp because all campgrounds carry 220volt service. I also thought the cost of this campground was at a premium too. Yes they do include many activities, but if you do not use them, you are wasting your money. Your money would be better spent at a more up to date resort. read more

We have a huge family and we have been going to this campground for 18 years. Each year our group gets bigger and bigger. This campground used to be very nice. About five years ago the new staff and owner started treating us like we were bad people. We are campers that like to spend time with our families and sit around the campfire after dark. The past years have gotten really bad. The old Camp Manager, Peg, treated us like she did not even want us there. Now the new Camp Manager, Randy, is worse. The owner needs to realize that he needs to hire better management to run this campground and put some money back into the campground. It is a long story, but after 18 years, our families are never going back to Crazy Horse. They have given us no other option but to not return. We spend between 3-9 days at this campground every year. We love the town of Brodhead, all the people that we have met over the years, and spend a lot of money throughout Brodhead's community with groceries, taverns, restaurants... etc. The local business owners are going to lose the most here. I feel sorry for them, and I wonder how many more campers Crazy Horse is treating like this. I wish it didn't have to come to this, but with the management, we feel that there is no other choice.

We spent the weekend of 7/29/16-8/1/16. Expected more for a campground that charges what this place does for a nights stay. Full hook up $56.00 a night , then $8.00 additional per person/night for the activities whether you do them or not. Like the adults will spend their weekend on the "jumping pillow" and how many times do you want to tube in the river. I would of rather paid a small fee to tube once then what I paid for 2 adults and 1 child in fees, which you do have to pay to camp.The kids activities consisted of bringing items and paying a fee to tie dye or spend additional money in the gift shop to buy something to dye. They had a candy bar bingo for the kids only to tell them each kid had to bring 5 candy bars to play, another sale at the store. What is the $8.00 per person/night for? The bathrooms were filthy and smelled really bad of urine. Never seen the "new shower area" because at 0630 when I was up to shower everything was locked up. My husband said in the men's bathroom the showers were like a faucets in the ceiling with a weak stream. One guy called it his "birdbath". Pool very small and the kids had run of that, so for adults we threw $32.00 out the window for activities, which I never heard of in a campground. That is usually part of the amenities a campground offered to the campers. The place is also run down and needs a lot of updating . For the money they make here I would expect "a lot " better. Never again. read more

I'm probably one of the most conservative, rule-following, law-abiding citizens around, but the rules this place has are ridiculous! Your camper HAS to face North, you can not take coolers in the shuttle for the tube rentals, you have to purchase wrist bands (even if you're not going to participate in any activities), you can't have alcohol (even one beer) in any of their tubes...the list goes on and on. They have more rules than they do campers! And their reasoning for everything is that "it's fire code." I honestly think the campground manager and his staff just have serious control issues...they stalked us on the river, they stalked us in the campground, and they even stalked us after they threw us out. Keep in mind, I'm a conservative, business professional, and a Mom of two...I do not live on the wild side at all..in fact tubing on the Sugar River was the wild side for me. :-) Save yourself the money and camp somewhere else! read more
