There is no camping on the Red Cedar State Trail. However, Lake Wissota State Park is 38 miles from the Menomonie Depot and offers a family campground with 116 campsites.
Lake Wissota State Park Campground
The family campground lies in a pine and hardwood forest and every campsite offers at least partial shade. There are 116 sites, 58 with electric hookup. Most sites are spaced well-apart and offer pleasant levels of seclusion. A few sites are more open, especially in the pine plantation in the south loop. All 116 sites are reservable and available for tent and RV/trailer camping. Five sites are pull-through and the rest are back-in. Most can accommodate a trailer or RV up to 45 feet in length. Site numbers 14 and 91 are ADA accessible. Each site has a fire ring and picnic table. None of the campsites are directly lakeside, but approximately 20 have lake views through a layer of foliage.
Campground amenities include two accessible, heated shower buildings with restrooms (flush toilets). Drinking water and vault toilets are scattered throughout the camping areas. A children’s playground and a shelter are in the middle of the campground. A recycling and garbage station is located at the campground entrance, and an RV/trailer dump station is at the park entrance.
A separate group campground is located at the south end of the park. There are two group sites for tent camping only, one site can accommodate up to 100 people and 15 vehicles, and the other can accommodate up to 80 people and 12 vehicles. Both group sites are reservable. Amenities include drinking water, vault toilets and a shelter. Showers are available in the family campground.
