Open year-round, Pine View Campground is part of Pine View Recreation Area.

This area also includes Whitetail Ridge and Sportsman’s Range.

The campground is nestled in a wooded area about a quarter mile west of Fort McCoy’s cantonment area and is bounded by Suukjak Sep Lake on the east and the La Crosse River on the west and south.

When members of the general public stay at Pine View Campground, they could rent a camper, bicycle, a game set, or even a fishing pole.

The campers, or recreational vehicle (RV) trailers, available at the checkout are: 11 29-foot campers, two 19-foot campers, three 16-foot campers, five A-line campers, and four pop-up campers.

Approximately 65,000 people make use of the campground annually, Sagler said. The campground features 160-plus campsites that are nonelectric tent sites and recreational vehicle/trailer pads with electrical hookups. Of these, 121 sites have full hookups for water, sewer, electricity, and cable TV.

The campground’s campsites are arranged in camping circles. Each site is equipped with a fire pit and a picnic table; each camping circle features a shower/restroom complex.

Pine View Campground is located near Fort McCoy off Highway 21. Follow signs to the campground.
