We love Grant River! Sandy and Frank are great hosts. Nice quiet park with friendly campers.
We like to travel around the Driftless Region. Potosi—Potosi Brewery and Restaurant, Potosi Saloon. Dubuque—Mississippi River Museum, watch barges go through the Lock. Cassville—car ferry across to Iowa and Stonefield Village. Platteville—world’s largest “M”, Mining Museum, Jamison Museum. Belmont—Wisconsin’s first capitol.

Right on the Mississippi River to see barges going up and down the river. Turtles and other wildlife living around the river. While there turtle eggs were hatching (End May) trying to make there way to the river bank. Yes there are two train tracks right next to the campground, but did not bother us (learned to tune the out). Site was concrete and very level (site 3). Bathhouse has two show stalls with good pressure.

Grant River Campground is a great place to camp!

One complaint: the lights in the shower building are on a timer that shuts the lights off before I finished showering. It is totally dark when the lights go out! I had to find my way out of the shower and go into the main room for the motion sensor turns the lights back on. The timer needs an additional sensor in the shower room to eliminate this problem. This problem was true for both the men’s and women’s room.

People with handicaps could be in serious trouble if the lights go out on them.

Solo tent camper, one night stay. I chose a site with electricity and water. The campsites are right on the Mississippi River, so the view from all sites are great. In spite of its popularity, the campground is quiet and does not feel crowded at all. Friendly staff and easy check in.
