    Beautiful Fish Lake has much to offer visitors. An average amount of rain falls at Fish Lake; August is the month that gets the most rain, and February is the month with the least moisture. Fish Lake is a place with many visitors from Madison, and if you've had enough of Fish Lake, Alder Pond is nearby. This lake is so wonderful. If you came for an overnight stay Crystal Lake Campground is a good spot to camp, and you'll never forgive yourself if you don’t  
   go skiing at Tyrol Basin since you're here.
What would winter be without some skiing at Devils Head, and don't leave Fish Lake without first going for a hike along the East Bluff Woods Trail. The vistas at Ice Age National Scenic Trail will blow your mind. Paddling on Baraboo River is so much fun, of course you could also take a look at Mud Lake since you're here; it's not far at all.
High temperatures at Fish Lake during the warm days of summer are in
 
               the 80's, and during summer nights temperatures are in the 50's. High temperatures through the wintertime are normally in the 20's, and night lows at Fish Lake through the winter generally plunge into the 0's. Now, you may imagine that's plenty but there's even more fun stuff to do here at Fish Lake. There's tremendous hiking along the East Bluff Trail, and after a long day outdoors Cedarberry Inn is a glorious place to spend a night or two. This lake is so wonderful. Whitewater paddling is glorious on Wisconsin River, and Snuffy's Campsite is a nice local campground.
There are tremendous locations to look at along the Grottos Trail, and dry warm beds await you at Clarion Hotel Baraboo.

Cedar Hills Campground
...bout a half hour from Madison. Easy trips to House on the Rock, Shot Tower State Park, Talieson. Winery's nearby. Canoe rental nearby, boat rental in Sauk City. Horse trails adjacent, I don't know if you can keep one at camp.
Pets allowed, on leash.
At least one regular camper lands his helicopter at camp occasionally, so if you have one...
Overnight camping is about $16, electric sites available. Bring quarters for the showers. Ice and firewood available.
Many sites have absolutely beautiful views, you won't find this at Jellystone.
You also won't find a camp store, organized activities, golf carts, swimming pool, restaurant and bar. This is a very pleasant basic campground. Not much to offer to bored little kids other than that which nature provides.
It's not uncommen to see hawks and bald eagles soaring over the valley. From our site this spring we regularly see an adult pair of eagles with their babies. Cool.
Interesting aside thing, this is also an operating farm, with cows and corn and tractors and stuff. You have to drive past the barn to get in. Rememb...

Devil's Lake State Park
Stayed here last weekend with some friends and it was great. I have never stayed in a State Park before and have always camped at privately-owned campgrounds. I must confess that I will probably always pursue State Park's over private grounds from here on out! The park was clean, the staff laid back and friendly, our site was well shaded and secluded. It was especially great to hang our tarp during a rainstorm. There were ample trees to tie rope too, which is unlike most private grounds I've been on where they simply cut out an area and your site is a patch of grass surrounded by sparse trees and foliage. The bathrooms were clean, and the Park has many great amenities for young, old, climbers or families. Plus, from the Park you can be at the Dells in about half an hour! I highly recommend!...
