Clean, well maintained, scenic, quiet, and ideal for a lover of trains- 4-5 an hour is a little it of enjoyment

This campground features some of the best downriver panoramas out there.

We love camping at Grant River and come back every fall. Great place along the Mississippi.
@HeatherA230508 · Camped on Oct 8, 2025 at Campsite #40
The campground was very nice BUT the railroad tracks with crossing was too close. Trains all evening/night. When two trains went by at 6:30 blowing their horns we decided not to stay our scheduled second night. Maybe it would be better if we had been camping at the far end of the campground but access to showers were important to us.
@SharonM2145782 · Camped on Oct 8, 2025 at Campsite #24
Sites spacious and well spaced. Clean. Quiet. Except for the great number of freight trains rolling through but thats to be expected. Beautiful sunsets over the river. Nice people camping there.
@RobertL7452920 · Camped on Oct 7, 2025 at Campsite #30
Great view of the Mississippi River. The area was very clean. No problems with anything.
@DonT7507581 · Camped on Oct 7, 2025 at Campsite #32
Except for the train traffic, which didn't bother us, a quiet, peaceful campground. Nearby small town Potosi, WI, is worth a visit. Great view of the Mississippi river from the campground. Person manning the check-in was a little gruff but maybe it has been a long summer.

@MarkF9408903 · Camped on Oct 3, 2025 at Campsite #3
Truly have come to love this area. Thank you for such clean and friendly area.
@KluesnerMDF334 · Camped on Oct 3, 2025 at Campsite #18
Beautiful park.........thankful it was open.
@BillB9731077 · Camped on Oct 2, 2025 at Campsite #55
Great park and nice location on the river, but the train noise is a real drawback as they run day and night and lay on the horn when passing the park, you kinda get used to it but other then that the park is vey nice and well kept.
@DebraW8542591 · Camped on Oct 2, 2025 at Campsite #16
Beautiful setting.
@CharlesG874789 · Camped on Sep 30, 2025 at Campsite #27
Nice facility but a bit pricey considering the relative lack of amenities.
@JamesC5011896 · Camped on Sep 30, 2025 at Campsite #51
The campground was very nice. The only problem is it is right next to double train tracks and there are trains coming through every 30 to 60 minutes every hour day and all night long so if you are not used to hearing trains blow their horn in the middle of the night, this is not a very good campground to stay at
@DavidD5028320 · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #38
Its not too far from Galena Dubuque, or attractions in Wisconsin. The only drawback is all the train traffic.
@LISAS7216541 · Camped on Sep 25, 2025 at Campsite #17
We tried to camp here at least once every season. The view of the sunset over the Mississippi is second to none. Every site has a view of the river so that is very enjoyable.
@JeffreyM593003 · Camped on Sep 24, 2025 at Campsite #46
Would have preferred to be closer to the river, but understand there is limited sites. Loved the trains as my father traveled those exact tracks when he worked for the railroad. His trip was Galesburg, IL to LaCrosse, WI.
@DonaldM3739134 · Camped on Sep 22, 2025 at Campsite #29
Such a pretty camp ground. Beautiful view of the River. If you can handle the train coming and going its a sweet place.
@RobertM1452522 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #56
Excellent spot to camp and very nice facilities. If train traffic bothers you not the place to camp. Double main line for BNSF Railroad.
@HaroldS8157931 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #27
Had problem with electricity on site 27. Had to borrow an adapter to get power. 30 amp kept kicking out.
@JAMESS8693241 · Camped on Sep 12, 2025 at Campsite #24
Campground very clean and was easy to get set up and start to enjoy the scenery. The trains can be a lot but even they enhance the experience. Staff very helpful and friendly. We will be going back for sure.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
