Hixton / Alma Center KOA

If you're looking for a bit of history to go along with your outdoor adventures, consider heading for Hixton / Alma Center KOA on Highway 95 near Alma Center. This family-friendly RV park has an ancient Native American site, Silver Mound, within its park limits; you can see this plus songbirds, deer, opossum, and raccoons while enjoying your morning coffee. The park also has a heated swimming pool, a jumping pillow, and a fishing pond stocked with fish. Kids will enjoy the bike rentals. Other social events include wagon rides, ice cream socials, and pancake breakfasts. A campground store will help you stay stocked up on necessities, and the laundry facilities and restrooms with showers will help you to freshen up after your Alma Center motorhome rental has been set up.

Most of the individual sites have pull-through access and up to 50 amp electricity plus Wi-Fi and cable tv channels to help you stay in touch. If you need to burn off some energy after your travels, there are a basketball court and pool table, a playground for the kids, and a horseshoe pit. The campground also has cabins, a camping lodge, and tent sites.

Within a short distance of the RV campgrounds, you'll find Lake Arbutus and the Black River where you can enjoy fishing and boating, canoeing, and kayaking. The Trempealeau River is a popular spot for trout fishing, and if you've ever gone scuba diving or would like to try, Wazee Lake is one of the deepest lakes in Wisconsin. It's a former iron mine that was flooded. In town, you'll find antique stores and flea markets, museums, and restaurants if you choose to let someone else do the cooking (it is a vacation, after all).
