The vast and varied landscape of Wisconsin is evident to all who come to the Badger State. The sand dune–laden shores of Lake Michigan, lake-studded highlands of the North Woods, ridges and valleys of the southwest, and the deep gorges cut by dark, fast-flowing rivers forming waterfalls striving for Lake Superior — all of this spells paradise for the tent camper.

The Best In Tent Camping : Wisconsin,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Best in Tent Camping: Wisconsin: A Guide for Car Campers Who Hate RVs, Concrete Slabs, and Loud Portable Stereos (Best Tent Camping) (Paperback)
Great book. This book is great because it is so detailed. It identifies varioous places to camp and even gets down to the campsites which are nice amongst in the place being reviewed. I would give it a five but this particular edition has a flaw. The map of Wisconsin found on the inner cover of this book that "shows" where all these campsites are is a mess. For example, one campsite is shown about 100 miles into Minnesota. All the publisher does is refer you to a correction you can download on the internet and paste into your new book. Poor solution. You would be suprised how much you use this aspect of the book.

This review is from: The Best in Tent Camping: Wisconsin: A Guide for Car Campers Who Hate RVs, Concrete Slabs, and Loud Portable Stereos (Best Tent Camping) (Paperback)
As has already been commented on, the map on the inside cover showing where the reviewed campgrounds are located is truly USELESS! You will need to Google the locations or look them up on the WDNR web site, white-out and correct the erroneous sites and then add page numbers next to all the sites on the map, this makes it much more user-friendly. I really do not understand why the publisher could not do this with the page numbers. It seems to be a theme with this series.
Once you make these changes, it's a pretty good guide book. I would have of given this book four stars if it had not been for the map errors, and five stars if they would have included page numbers next to the sites on the map.

I had purchased the first edition of this book, and found it so helpful that I wanted the updated version when it was available. The writer describes the camps and sites with such detail, that I always have confidence in reserving not only at a particular park, but even to request a specific campsite. A WONDERFUL resource....
