Great place to stay right on the Mississippi river. Only problem right next to major railroad track.

Unfortunately we didn’t get to camp due to high cold winds, but the grounds we so clean and well kept and the staff was so nice and helpful. We plan to try camping there again soon and hopefully the weather cooperates this time!

I love it there. The trains going by can be loud, but that is what makes it cool, especially if you are camping with kids. The river view is beautiful and the sites are amazing.

Your web site to reserve a site needs help. To reserve a sought after site ahead of time, you have to reserve a day @ a time. Open up sites at least for the week. And this waiting till 9:00am is stupid! CAMPERS ARE VERY COMPETITIVE!

As always we had a very peaceful experience at Grant River campground. Can’t even remember how many times we’ve stayed there and always the same wonderful experience. Lots of birds including eagles flying right over the camper, pelicans both brown (rare) and white (frequent). Wanted to try fishing but we haven’t a boat.
In terms of things to do, there’s Dubuque, Iowa 20-30 minutes away. There, you can 2 casinos, an excursion boat on the Mississippi river, a fantastic, highly recommended Upper Mississippi River Museum, as well as restaurants, big box stores and movie theaters.
In the other direction, on the Main Street in Potosi, WI, is an excellent restaurant/microbrewery. Good food and always fun to sample some of the local brews. I still like Steamboat Shandy but there are also ligh t and dark beers as well and of course you can sample before you order or purchase. Grant River is my happy place I would live in are near the campground if I were not currently tied to Milwaukee.

This was our 2nd time in 2019 because we were impressed with campground in 6/29 - 8/3/19,
Site 61, Excellent. On 9/30 - 10/5/19, Site 53, Excellent the weather was Bad, 6" rain, flood warning.
Our site was dry, some others had water standing that the Camp Host was pumping out. We left 2 days early because 90% rain was predicated for rest of week.
The Camp Host & Office gal were super nice & camp grounds excellent condition, concrete pads on sites, very clean. We will come back. Rail road tracks lots of trains, right on Mississippi.
We stayed in 34' 5th Wheel.
