Governor Thompson State Park

Governor Thompson State Park sits on Caldron Falls Flowage in Marinette County, one of Wisconsin's newer state parks, with hiking trails through northern hardwood forest. The 100-site family campground spans east, north, and south loops (16 electric sites in the east loop) with a central shower building and dump station; three boat-in sites on the flowage's south shore add a backcountry option, available year-round.

Wisconsin DNR statewide camping system: a vehicle admission sticker is required at every state park or forest entrance, including for registered campers - $28/year for Wisconsin residents ($13/year age 65+) or $50/year for non-residents, or $13/day resident / $16/day non-resident. Nightly campsite rates vary by electricity, amenities, location, site type, day of week and season, and are shown when you select a specific site during booking; non-resident campers pay a flat $15/night surcharge on top of the site's own rate. A $9.30 reservation fee applies per booking, plus a $10 cancellation fee or $6 change fee if plans change. Pets are allowed at this campground on a leash no longer than 8 feet at all times, per Wisconsin State Park System's statewide pet policy; owners must clean up and properly dispose of pet waste.
