Grant River
Hosted by US Army Corps of Engineers
New listing
Spread along the banks of the Upper Mississippi River, Grant River Campground sits in the "Catfish Capital of Wisconsin" and offers a plethora of outdoor and recreational activities. The famous fishing on the Mississippi River draws crowds of anglers each year. The most popular species is the channel catfish, which earned the city of Potosi its nickname; other species include bluegill, walleye, crappie, northern pike and bass. Best to try your luck in the spring before the rice field grows up. There is boat ramp access within the campground, but it can be challenging for larger vessels as water levels drop and aquatic vegetation grows up. A picnic shelter and playgrounds create an ideal environment for a small party or family get-together. Both tent and RV sites are available, and amenities like showers, drinking water and flush toilets offer a comfortable camping experience. Surrounding the large campsite is a lush river landscape with towering bluffs and beautiful sunsets, creating a nature experience for visitors without losing the comforts of modern camping. Nearby are the Potosi Brewing Company Restaurant & Museum (Potosi, WI, 2 miles), Lock and Dam 11 (Dubuque, IA, 19 miles), the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium (Dubuque, 20 miles), the Diamond Jo Casino and The Q Casino (Dubuque, 20 miles), and the historic sites, antiques and fine dining of Galena, IL (28 miles).
