I am looking into going on a fishing trip with 5 of my friends in Northern Wisconsin, near its boarder with the upper peninsula of Michigan. We want to find a campground where our tents would not be right next to the neighboring campsite. We don't have to be stranded in the wilderness, just a camp ground that isn't packed together. Also any information about renting canoes would be helpful!!

Thank you so much!!



Answer
Three locations come to mind. The ideal location is Sylvania Wilderness Area chain of lakes at Watersmeet, Michigan, with canoe rentals in Watersmeet. Two other locations are Chequamegon National Forest and Nicolet National Forest.

How to get to the Mississippi Palisades?

My friend and I are trying to plan a camping trip out to the Mississippi Palisades in Northwestern Illinois, but we do not have access to a car as we do not yet have our licenses. Does anyone know of a way to get there by bus or train, or if there is any good camping in the area that is accessible by those methods. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!


Answer
Where do you leave from is the big question?
contact the Galena/Jo Daviess County Convention & Visitors Bureau (720 Park Ave.; 877.464.2536/815.777.3557

Mississippi Palisades State Park (16327A State Highway 84; 815.273.2731), established in 1929, is another spectacular park along the Mississippi River. The park has a few Indian burial mounds, several overlooks, and an extensive trail network. A short hike on the Indian Head trail, leads to a spectacular view of the Mississippi Valley. Please be careful. Itâs a long fall. If you are the adventure sport type, this is one of the few public parks along the Upper Miss where rappelling is allowed. Call the office for a list of bluffs where it is OK.

Camping. If you are boating through the area, primitive camping at any island in the river is fine with the folks who run the Upper Miss Refuge (800.877.8339). Winterâs Spring Lake Resort (8048A State Highway 84 South; 815.273.4595; open May 1 to Oct 1) is a few miles south of Savanna and situated along Spring Lake (go figure!) which connects to the main channel; it has about 50 sites with water and electric, plus 20 or so tent sites on a peninsula next to the lake; no showers. Seven Eagles Campground & Resort (9734 State Highway 84; 815.273.7301; open Memorial Dayâmid-October) is tucked between Frog Pond and Spring Lake along the River Road; they have 73 sites with full hookups. Mississippi Palisades State Park (815.273.2731) has 241 campsites, many well-shaded, including several primitive sites that are accessed only by a 1½ mile hike.
