MWD - E8 Campout

Fall is a popular camping season in Wisconsin, which means campgrounds fill up quickly!

Reservation Timeline

Reservations open 11 months in advance of your first camping date. For example, if you plan to camp starting September 17, reservations open at 9:00 AM CST (10 AM ET) on October 17 of the prior year.

Stay a Little Longer

We encourage you to arrive a few days early or stay after the event to fully enjoy the park and the surrounding area.

Circles = Electric (powered) sites

Triangles = Non-electric (no power) sites

Reservation Tips

Consider starting your reservation a few days before your actual arrival date (we recommend Sunday, the 13th). Even if you don’t plan to arrive early, you can cancel the extra nights later. This strategy increases your chances of securing your preferred site. You can reserve for a total of 14 days.

Be ready to reserve at 10 am ET for your preferred site if you want electricity!

When previewing sites, you can click on the Site calendar to know when the site will be open for reservations.
