  We were here in October just as the fall color was starting in this part of Wisconsin. The overlooks were beautiful, bathrooms were well cleaned. The curves to get here were a lot of fun to drive...  more »

  Very nice and quiet campground. Hiking trails were nice with cool views of the Kickapoo valley. You can take advantage of canoe rental/shuttle place in Ontario which is a short 5min drive from the park. Camping sites were maintained. The outhouses did have a pretty bad stink and camping next to them would have not been pleasent. The outlook point on the trail past the amphitheater is overgrown and there is no views. The main overlook is a 2 minute walk from parking lot. The hemlock trail was my favorite but part was closed so it was not a loop. Definitely recommend checking out this park.

  Wildcat Mountain is a great place to camp, hike, paddle, and ride horses. The view from observation point is breathtaking. The amphitheater has a great view too. Paddling the beautiful Kickapoo River is another treat. Winter brings a frozen waterfall and a candlelight snowshoe/ski in January. It's a gem!
