About
Laurel Lake Campground is a peaceful, 12-site campground located in a stand of grand old pines and young oaks within the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. This rustic campground serves as an ideal base camp for water recreation enthusiasts, providing access to the 50-mile Three Lakes-Eagle River Chain of Lakes, one of the largest inland freshwater chain systems in the world with nearly 11,500 acres of water and 174 miles of shoreline. The campground features a boat launch directly across from the parking area, making it convenient for anglers and boaters. Fishing opportunities abound for musky, walleye, northern pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass, rock bass, perch, crappie, and other panfish. All types of boating are permitted, both motorized and non-motorized, including waterskiing, kayaking, and canoeing. Swimming must be done from boats as no beach area is provided. Nearby attractions include the Sam Campbell Memorial Trail and the Town of Three Lakes, located seven miles from the campground. Sites accommodate various RV lengths up to 40 feet, with paved roads throughout the campground.
