Summary
Drinking water is available seasonally. Reservations are not required—camping is first-come, first-served—and there’s a modest nightly fee. RVs are welcome, though there are no hookups. Nestled in a peaceful, wooded setting near the Wisconsin River, the park provides a relaxed, family-friendly vibe. Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy nearby hiking, fishing, and boating. It's especially scenic in fall when foliage peaks. The best time to visit is late spring through early fall. Kennedy Park is a quiet, budget-friendly spot for rustic camping with basic comforts.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
