For Castle Mound - Black River SF: Castle Mound Campground is part of the larger Black River State Forest. It's just outside Black River Falls and the Walmart and convenience stores are just minutes away. They have several pull-through sites, which are somewhat rare in Wisconsin state parks, and our site (20) was easily the best one in the grounds. Sites 16, 18 and 20 were all excellent. You will want to stay away from sites 29 through 35 as they are in a low lying area where stagnant water abounds. Even on the "dry" side of the grounds, the mosquitoes were formidable. Bring plenty of repellent. Firewood is available self-serve for $5 for a very generous bundle. Bring your wagon. The shower building is new within the last 10 years.
Why 3-stars? There are no amenities. You'll need to bring your own fun and you'll have to leave the campground to have it. There are some excellent geological formations in the park as it is situated at the edge the driftless region of the state. To reach them you'll need to hike up a trail about 200 feet above the floor, but it's worth the effort. The local Black River Falls area has plenty of places to enjoy your outdoors. We look forward to returning.
