Lake Cisco Campground

Quite interesting getaway.

We had a great getaway here for thanksgiving. Very quiet surrounded by historic ruins of long vacant vacation cabins and the old abandoned zoo. This introduced us to a part of ciscos past that I never knew existed. We stayed in the RV site #2 which had full hookups.

The place was a lot of fun– from the overall vibe, getting to see the night sky and to the campgrounds themselves, everything felt well-maintained and cared for. The vibe was perfect, with a mix of relaxation and adventure in the air. Exploring was a blast! There were hiking trails everywhere, each offering something unique. The abandoned zoo, is an absolute treat. Exploring the old cabins from the 1920s scattered around – is extremely memorable! Each path had something new to uncover, and the whole place was filled with hidden history and surprises. I can’t wait to go back and explore even more!

Rich History and Dystopian Vibe

Staying at the Lake Cisco Campground was a wonderful experience. We stayed in a tent for 2 days and enjoyed hiking, climbing, and exploring the property and the nearby abandoned zoo. It’s incredible and a bit sad to see what has become of structures that are (in some cases) more than 100 years old. The host is knowledgeable about the area and very friendly! The co-host, Thor was an exceptionally good boy and treated my brat (the dog I brought) with the patience that she absolutely did not deserve. We had a wonderful experience and regret that we were unable to stay longer. We definitely plan to return.

Great stay it was in a safe location with a great view directly above the road leading to the Old Zoo. The old cabins were awesome and it leads right to the dam. I will be back for sure.

Plenty of space.

Lake Cisco Campground isn’t a traditional campground. It did however provide what we needed. After some circling around the property we found a fire pit and an electric outlet and made camp. It was quiet after dinner and the stars were not missed.
