After telling my son and a friend about a canoe trip I took as a teenager down the Namekagon and…read moreSt. Croix rivers 30 years ago, they both said they really wanted to do something similar. After reaching out to multiple outfitters in the region, I choose Jack's and I'm glad I did. I didn't want to transport my 17 foot Grumman aluminum to upper Wisconsin and take it through the rapids. We were also going to need to rent a second boat anyways and needed a shuttle. I started looking into local outfitters. They were quick to respond to my inquiries and answer my questions. They also were willing to not only rent us a canoe and a kayak and provide shuttle service, but they answered my questions about what I'd need to do for a multiple night trip down the river. We camped at their site for the first night and put in right there so we could paddle down the river, across Trego Lake, portage the dam, then continue down the Namekagon and St. Croix Rivers over the next couple of days. The equipment they rented us was in good condition. We had no issues with the paddles, PFDs, or boats. The shuttle van was clean and well maintained. When we looked at the camps all of them where in nice, clean conditions. The port-a-poties were clean. They have a store on site to purchase any items you may need to go down the river. The staff was friendly and nice. It wasn't busy when we arrived and was able to chat with some of them. It's a family own and operated business. We had scheduled a 3pm ride back to our vehicles on our last day but due to our underestimating how fast our trip was, we got there around noon. I called Jack's and inquired if there was any way they could pick us up early. Knowing they're busy I highly doubted it. Their response was they didn't have any drivers available right then, but if one becomes available early they would send them our way. We really didn't expect anyone to get there until 3pm. However, around 2pm the shuttle arrived. If we had to wait until the scheduled pick up time that would be understandable, but because they had the availability and could come early, that was pretty awesome in my book. If you're looking for an outfitter to go down the river either via canoe, kayak, or tube... I can't recommend enough Jack's.

The staff are all extremely rude and have zero customer service. Im not sure if it was a caretaker or just an employee, but he stayed in a tent on the camp ground and act as camp police ensuring that there was no fun to be had... this means, no music, talking/laughing "loud" ... and this was all before their weekend quiet hours of 10:30. Honestly it was ridiculous. Also their tubing rental is a joke. Dont waste your time or money on their lacking operation. Do yourself a favor and go down to Jacks Tubing or Log Cabin... you will have a WAY better time.

My best tip for those areas is to lift your bottom so that you're almost laying flat on the tube. Also, wear sturdy shoes, as flip flops or bare feet are no conducive for this activity. Life jackets are provided for free & encouraged. A bus is there to pick you up at the end and bring you back to your cars. There are tubes with crates ride inside designed to carry your cooler if you choose to bring one. We love coming here. We enjoy it every time.

On seeing just how crammed full of people the park is & the incredibly cramped spots - (you better like your neighbor) - I suggested we ask for a refund and keep driving. It's now just after 10pm on night 1 of our 2 night stay. Normally, we would be at our campfire - either roasting marshmallows or just decompressing silently whilst gazing at the fire. Why not now you ask? An excellent question... Our pull through spot is beyond tight. The camper is wedged in between the neighbor's fire ring/table & the fenced path to cross to the restrooms/showers - which are conveniently located directly in front of our self-contained camper... hmm. If we light a fire, we'll either have the ring in the road, against the camper or against the fence - thus, no outdoor fire for us on this stop. We decided to make it an indoor event & lit the living room fireplace. We settled in for some wine & relaxation. Instead we're listening to the parade of people on the path right by our (closed) doors, at least 3 dogs barking non-stop, 2 different sets of music blaring & a hammering that I'd guess is tent stakes or someone setting up horse shoes- tho I can't imagine where they'd be putting either, as I didn't see any empty ground space. [EDIT: Quiet hours start at 11pm, it's now 1040pm & dead quiet... we may be ok] I'm going to hope things improve from here - but the early impression is that this place is a lil too lord of the flies for us. I'm sure it's great for someone with kids needing to burn off a lot of energy, & the kids do look much happier here than they have at other parks. I'll give them that. If my opinion changes, I'll update. Thankfully, we did remember to bring the noise machine.

The park itself is incredibly large. Be prepared to drive 5-15miles to get to different areas of the park. Plenty to do from the largest area of electric campsites I've seen at a state park, to river access for canoes/kayaks, to a beach to swim and relax, to the famous observation tower if you want the most scenic view of the park. Campsites are not super private, but very spacious -- so spacious you could easily fit a large camper (30ft+), a tent or clam, and your vehicle, and still have room for activities. Also, poor to no cell service at campsites (so you can disconnect!), but they do have wifi in park buildings. PS: climbing the tower isn't for the faint of heart -- steep.

Our main stop was the Apostle Islands but we wanted to do a little boating, swimming and a lot of relaxing. Due to the Covid-19 breakout, the campground, like many others, have limited activities and access. For Top O the Morn this meant the lodge, showers and bathrooms were closed. However, the beach and boat rentals were still open. I fell in love with the campground. Our site was incredible, enough mature pines that you could hang a hammock and shade was sufficient with plentiful sun. A few sites seemed a little tight and two faced each other, perfect for camping with friends. There was a beautiful cool breeze that blew off the lake that felt like heaven after the blistering heat in northern Illinois. The owners were great. They are friendly, helpful and will do whatever they can to make your stay better. The campground is located on one of the bigger lakes in the immediate area and you could look into the lake near shore and see bluegill. The pontoon boat we rented was priced very affordable. It was clean and ran like a dream. The lake is big enough to tow a tube around and have a lot of fun. All in all, this is a great campground and we will be back next year for sure.
