I don't camp at the Devil's Lake often, and when I do it is often last-minute and I can't get a reservation at any of the State Park campgrounds because they fill up so often, especially on the weekends. While out West it's easy to find a quiet piece of public land and sleep in your truck, everything is private property around Devil's Lake, so you have to find a private campground.

The Wisconsin DNR started a major campsite update project this winter at Devil's Lake and Peninsula State Parks, adding electricity to sites in the Quartzite, Northern Lights, and Ice Age campgrounds.

If you were late to the game this year and missed out on Devils Lake State Park camping reservations, you have a second chance to score great sites in the Quartzite Campground tomorrow.
