The power at our site was erratic. We have used this site two years in a row and the power was erratic then. I have a power management system on our coach and it indicated power problems. The front gate agent moved us to a different site.

The COE (manager?) drove by and I told him about the site (and the site next to it) having power problems. He immediately got defensive and argumentative.

He questioned my knowledge about such things and asked if I was an electrician. I was talking to him through his window on his vehicle. He got mad and pulled away with me still in the window. I could have been injured.

I am a retired computer science engineer with graduate degrees. I did not flaunt this to him.

He needs to get training on communication skills, customer support training, and anger management.

This is verified by the agents at the gate, and an agent in the vehicle with the Manager.

We were there a short time, but it was nice and the staff were very polite. Would definitely go back if in the area.

We stay at Grant River as we break up our trip from central Illinois to Chetek WI in the fall of the year. We love the drive up through south west WI and really enjoy our stay here. The river is so peaceful and the surrounding area is pretty to travel through as we leave the flat lands of central Illinois. Beautiful park and very well maintained. The attendants that we have had the pleasure to work with have been very nice and helpful. Just an enjoyable Wisconsin countryside setting.

This is a very nice campground on the Mississippi River. And if you like trains, it is even better as there is well traveled tracks on both sides of the river. Well kept and clean with a clear view of the area.

Love this park. On the Mississippi River with a boat launch. Sites are cement with fire pits. Showers and restroom are clean. There are many things to do in the area including a brewery tour.

Very clean and neat campground. Nice sites! We enjoyed going to Potosi which has a lovely brewery and stores. The river was beautiful in the morning. The trains were fast and noisy but we adjusted to it.

We disappointed in the complete park requiring reservations. We feel that it should return to a couple of loops be 1st come 1st serve.

a great little park- scenic, spacious, nestled on the Mississippi and bordered by the railroad tracks. the rv sites are NOT laid out like match sticks in a box- park is so quiet most of the time it is possible to hear trains on the Iowa side of the River and hear the throbbing of tow boat engines pushing barges up the River. It's a dead end park, so there aren't any "town folk" coming around gawking at those of us staying in the park, which is nice-many other parks have a lot of "drive-thru" traffic.
