Loved this campground. The premium sites are definitely worth the small extra fee. Big sites and very clean. Friendly host.

We very much enjoy Spearhead Point. We have been here a few times. We come for the remoteness, access to the flowage, and the peace & quiet of the woods. It's always been clean and the Campground Host has been very friendly & helpful when we needed her.

The only reason I don't rate as Excellent 5 Stars, is due to the awful noise of generators. We have found this at all Forest campgrounds.
I cannot understand why the Forest Service that promotes the very peace & quiet OF coming to the forest allows the horrible sound of generators running all day. All forest staff should be required to spend just 1 day sitting on a site next-to a generator user to understand how obnoxious the sound is. I sit around my campsite to read or listen to the birds singing, the wind in the trees or visit with friends only for the day to be ruined by my neighbors generator use.
Almost all Generator Users spend their time INSIDE the camper, I assume taking advantage of their A/C, microwave and tv. Why are they even in the forest?
I realize there is electric being installed at some forest campgrounds.
Why aren't there Generator-Free campgrounds? And good ones, not just a couple places to pacify the non-generator users.
Some campgrounds are large; couldn't they be split so GOOD sites/loops are provided for people who come to enjoy the QUIET of the forest.
Put the people who spend the day INSIDE their campers off to themselves.
Some generator users LEAVE their campsite while the generator is running. Rude & against the rules. Some campgrounds have no one to complain to. And if there is a designated time (ie8-5) to run them, they again don't follow the rules. They seem oblivious to the noise or don't care.

We both tent camp and have a 16' RV. We have solar & gas. No noise to ruin other campers.
That is what the forest is for. . .the enjoyment of ALL for the peace & quiet & beauty the Forest has to offer.
Back to the State Parks I go. I really wish I could truly enjoy the forest more.

I like the docks. Ironically, I also enjoy the bad cell service.

We love Spearhead Point, come here at least once a year usually in late fall. The camp is beautiful, quiet and has great hiking nearby. We look forward to the completion of the lodge renovation.

Although the weather was very cold, rainy, and snowy, we had a great time! We had the park to ourselves for most of our stay, but our neighbors were quiet and quite a distance away. Our site was right at the tip and we were surrounded by water and had our own little dock. If the weather was better we were prepared to fish. Instead, we sat out by the fire (in the snow), cooked on our campfire and listened to the Badger game via transistor radio. PERFECT anniversary weekend!

We really enjoyed staying here! The facilities were adequate and the camp hosts kept the toilets clean and tidy.

I will add that finding the campground was a little difficult. We had family traveling separately and they drove around for over an hour because the route was not marked very well. In addition, the trails could use a little better marking or perhaps adding a trail map to the campground information board so that campers can know how long the hike might be (with the forest being so vast, we were afraid to take a trail not knowing if it would take us an hour or two to get back - or half the day!).
