No, we're not going to Escanaba, but our home is on your way. If the date worked out right, you could pull in here for a night on your way through Wisconsin if all you need is electrical and water for one night?

Patrice, thank you for the offer but I believe we have found a campground that will work. We will be staying in Portage July 22, 23, and 24 and heading on to MI on the 25th. If it worked out we would love to get together with you guys for a bit of a visit. Let me know if that would be possible, we are just going to explore the area while staying there.

We'd love to have you and yours over to our place for a visit and a nice supper!

You might also want to check out Mirror Lake State Park for camping ...

https://wisconsinstateparks.reserveamerica.com/campgroundSearch.do

If you search for electric sites at Mirror Lake State Park in this online reservation site, I think they have one available during your dates for a decent price. I have never camped at an RV site, but Mirror Lake is a quiet and beautiful state park just a few miles up the road from here and near a lot of things you could tour. Worth a check if you aren't positive yet.

Peninsula state park is 30 minutes by water or 4 hours by land to Escanaba because you have to go 2 hours back down to green bay the drive back up the other side of the bay even though you can see Escanaba form the bluffs of Peninsula stat park.

that said Wyalusing down by Prarie DuChien is a butiful park with unique features https://wisconsinstateparks.reserveameri...mp;parkId=60044

as is Devils Lake state park

Peninusula state is also a favorite those are probably the most stand out state parks

there is some nice camping in a county park in Blue mounds not very far from cave of the Mounds a unique feature to see especially on a hot summers day and the camping is atop the mound so you get a great view and a breeze.

Kettle moraine North unit would also be along the way


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Check out the Indian Agent House in Portage. Sometimes they have some cool historical events going on.

Seem like you might have picked your place, but I would recommend green lake campground, in green lake wi. Stayed their last year, it was very nice.

Devil's lake... awesome for those of us that misspent our youth climbing up perfectly good cliffs. Tower Hill and Gov. Dodge State parks also good but more than 5 hours. High Cliff is the one that is on the way and within the 4 hour guidelines.
