The simplest way to pick a campground so we can start our reservations in November is to have some discussion about each option.
If no consensus is reached the "default" Campground will be Brown County SP
If we reach a decision by November 13 this year, everything should fall into place.
Please add comments or questions as they come up.

Here’s some differences in the parks that we found.
We all know what the expect with state parks such as Brown County...shaded sites, usually clean shower houses, sometimes off grade sites, $33 per night for electric site, alcohol allowed, pets on leash, $8 a vehicle to enter
Ceraland is a private park that boast a huge amount of activities...one person stated in a review...” a amusement park without the rides”! Swimming pool, skeet shooting, driving range, go kart track, fishing, disc golf,
$37 nightly electric camp sites, $42 full hook up,
NOalcohol allowed, NOsmoking allowed, NOpets allowed except for the RV sites (full hook up sites)
$2 per person entry fee, most of their activities have a separate fee
If you are a Facebook user, search the reviews for Ceraland. All over the board, a lot of negative comments! Including showers not being hot!
