CAMPING

Nelson Ledges has over 200 campsites. You will park at your campsite. All campsites have a fire ring and firewood is available for purchase. Shower trailers will be available (5 minutes or less please!). The campground is 250 acres of forest, meadow, rock formation, and water. There are two fishing lakes, besides the swimming quarry. The fishing lakes are home to large bass, catfish, crappie and blue gill. You may also find many waterfowl and smaller animals like turtles, frogs, nonpoisonous snakes, and other small fresh water life. The Quarry is spring-fed, clear, clean and warms up by mid May.
The forests consist of a variety of trees, wildflowers, mushrooms and an assortment of plant life. Many small, to large mammals. Squirrels, opossums, raccoons, wild turkeys, pheasants, woodpeckers and song birds, along with the elusive loon and so much more, consider the park their home. The individual campsites cater to one's personal preference for site location. Whether it's on the ledge by the water, or deep in the quiet woods. You may camp near the social activity, or settle in one of the quiet, isolated areas. We pride ourselves on being a primitive campground to avoid the trailer/RV park look of our competitors. Campers and Winnebago’s are more than welcome to visit for a few days, but long stays are not encouraged, and there is limited electric and no water hook up.
