Grant River recreation area was clean and appeared well maintained. Easy access to water to fill the holding tank and the campsite was clean. Other than the train (which did not bother us) it was very quiet and the staff was very welcoming.

Grant River Recreation Area is a very well kept campground. They are always making improvements. The last time we were there the east end of the campground had no concrete pads. They have since put in level pads which makes setting up very fast and easy. The wardens are constantly going through the park making it safe for all.

Great place, wonderful breeze coming off the Mississippi, but you are right next to a train track, so buyer beware.

Beautiful location on the Mississippi River. Minutes from Patosi, WI which has a first-class brewery and beer museum for tasting/tours. Nice, flat spots for parking your rig.

Unfortunately, the reason it only gets 3 stars is because the NOISE. The train is just outside the campsite and WILL wake you up. That is, if you aren't already awake from whatever boat is running up and down the river all night long. I have no clue what they were doing, but the motor was LOUD on that boat and the headlights will blare on your campsite!

The facility is well run and maintained, has excellent showers, and is picturesque next to the Mississippi River.
It does have an adjacent train track to be aware of, like many locations directly next to rivers, so be warned of the sounds that happen at all hours. I camped here for four days and never lost sleep over it.

Beautiful campground and we had a great time. We really liked our site. The only negative was that the shower strength was pitiful and the water never got hot.

Very peaceful except train traffic along side of campground 24/7. But that is why I went there. Very clean, the camp hosts that I met were very welcoming, friendly and informative. If you need ice grab it in last big town before park.
