This is a very private location. In its former life this property was a limestone quarry. Evidence of it's history remain with high rock walls on both ends of the property. In the center of the property is about 5 acres that is flat and covered with wildflowers and small trees. There are several good options for camping in this area. Surrounding this area is another 15 acres of hills and trees. We have a scenic overlook open to all guests where you can relax and sit on a wooden swing while enjoying the beautiful view of the Mississippi River below. There is a boat ramp just a mile down the hill for boating or fishing on the Mississippi and the city of La Crosse, WI and La Crescent, MN are each only about a five minute drive. Great River Bluffs State Park and countless other recreational opportunities are just minutes away.This is a very private location.  In its former life this property was a limestone quarry.  Evidence of it's history remain with high rock walls on both ends of the property.

Would camp again!
Erica's land was amazing! We loved being able to bring our dogs. Our site was on Shady Lane and was a nice secluded area complete with chairs, picnic table, and fire pit.

A group I travel with have been coming here for years and we always have a great time. This spot is a nice mix of remote seclusion with modern conveniences nearby. This is a place worth coming back to.

I absolutely loved tent camping on Erica's land with my dog. It was peaceful, spacious, and had wonderful views of the Mississippi River. There were a couple of hiking trails that were also beautiful! We will definitely be back!

We loved camping here! The sites were private and it had a beautiful overlook of the river. Our dog loved his first camping trip at Erica's!
