Kohler-Andrae Campground

The Great Outdoors

Once you arrive in the area with your campervan rental, you can head out into the wilderness to kick back and relax. Before you hit the road searching for the perfect outdoor escape, consider Kohler-Andrae State Park, just steps away from your campsite. Aside from sleeping at the park, you can hike, bike, ride horses, snowshoe, go cross-country skiing, swim, fish, canoe or kayak, picnic, or visit the incredible nature center on-site to learn about the local wildlife.If you keep heading south, Harrington Beach State Park gives you another way to see the divine sunrises that take place over Lake Michigan. A handful of different ecosystems can be seen at this unique little park by the lake, like swamplands, coastal forests, and massive sand dunes home to endangered birds. Hike alongside the beach, through the sand dunes, or go for a swim in the refreshing waters of Lake Michigan while you visit and stay the night if you can.Lakeshore State Park is an option if you already plan on visiting Milwaukee, as the park is located right near the downtown area of the city. The park is small, but full of dazzling views of the lake, a historic lighthouse, jogging and hiking trails, a marina, and excellent fishing piers.If you want a change of scenery, High Cliff State Park can be found over on nearby Lake Winnebago. This stunning park is named for its breathtaking cliffs that line the large reservoir. Observation towers, hiking trails, and incredible views from the cliffs are part of the park’s appeal, along with a campground where guests may park their RV rentals for the night. Biking, swimming, fishing, hunting, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing are all commonly enjoyed depending on the time of year, and there are effigy mound archaeological sites dating back centuries that guests can see too.
