Overview

Moose Lake Campground sits along its namesake lake in the Chequamegon National Forest of northern Wisconsin. The serene lake and surrounding forest offer a spectacular location for families to enjoy nature.

Recreation

The location provides access to a variety of activities, including miles of off-road vehicle, hiking and mountain biking trails.

Anglers will find an abundance of musky, walleye, bass and pan fish in the lake, and the clear water is ideal for kayaking, canoeing and swimming. A sandy beach and a boat ramp provide convenient lake access.

This small and semi-secluded campground offers about 15 single-family campsites for tent and RV camping.

Each site is equipped with tables and campfire rings with grills. Accessible vault toilets, drinking water and trash collection are provided. Roads into the campground are not paved and the parking aprons are grass and gravel.

Very nice, clean and private campground. Bathrooms were exceptionally clean!! I've seen comments on poor cell service, but we have verizon and were to stream music the entire weekend.

Great quiet place. small but nice beach. No group camp sites but they are large and nice. We had campers. They were a nice big size to accommodate them. There is however questionable water. I would bring plenty of your own water. Nice outhouses and friendly campground hosts. I would go back again.

Nice little campground. I would camp here again. Limited trees for hammocks however plenty of room for tents and campers. Pro tip: reserve site #6 it's right next to the beach.
