Namekagon

Namekagon campground is a family-friendly campground that runs alongside its namesake lake, at the headwaters of the Namekagon River. It is the perfect spot to kayak, canoe, jet ski, swim or take a boat ride to one of the many restaurants along the shoreline. The campground sits on the 3,227-acre Namekagon Lake, surrounded by a hardwood and hemlock forest in northwestern Wisconsin. The lake is famous for its fishing potential, and anglers will find musky, pike, walleye and bass, among other varieties, available in abundance. With its close proximity to off-highway vehicle, hiking and mountain bike trails, the North Country National Scenic Trail among them, Namekagon is an ideal location for making a base camp. The Namekagon Nature Trail is a one-mile interpretive trail which traverses the immediate area and begins in the campground. The campground offers a couple dozen single-family campsites for tent or RV camping. Each site is equipped with tables and campfire rings with grills. Accessible vault toilets, drinking water, trash collection and recycling bins are also provided. A day-use picnic area is equipped with multiple tables, picnic shelters, a basketball court, beach, boat ramp and fishing piers.
