River's Edge Campsite 1
Excellent location close to biking and fishing. Spot worked for us and Chris was a lovely host. If you get the chance - go mountain biking or hiking an Winman Trails. First Hipcamp experience and will book other opportunities.

My Trip to Manitowish 🏕️🛶
I really enjoyed this area! I decided to tent camp instead of RV, so I had tons of extra space at the site! During office (till 5pm) hours you will have a lot of people walk by for the kayak rental but it didn’t bother me or my dog at all. The site has Wi-Fi, electricity and water hookups which was great! Each site also has fire rings but the office back porch has a much nicer setup and had light music playing which I liked!
Site 1 is probably the best location here, as it’s close to the river and is a bit more secluded with all the trees. Site 2 is right off the parking lot and is wide open grass setup.
The local grocery store in Mercer is only about 8 min away and had solid prices and selection. The owners had a nice selection of wines available for purchase as well.
Overall, I had a great experience here and would definitely recommend and visit again! This was also my first time using the Hipcamp app and everything went smoothly!

Truly special place.
Super awesome experience. Idealic base camp right on the river and next to some of the flowiest paved bike trails I’ve ever been on thru the woods that connect to Winman Trails. OneWheel and dog friendly campsite! Chris is an amazing host and just wants you to have an adventure and a good time. So much to do all out your back tent door! Many thanks to the gracious hosts!

River's Edge Campsite 1
I spent 3 days/nights at Campsite 1. Everything was great. If you have a long trailer, it can be tricky to maneuver (back) in to. My 19' single-axle was zero-issues. The site is level and firm. All hookups worked as they should. There's a little road noise from Hwy 51 during the day, but it quiets at night. Mosquitos? They're part of the Northwoods Experience. A little bug spray will keep most away. The site overlooks a put-in on the Manitowish River. Very scenic. And there's a bike route that crosses right in front of camp. I had 24-hour access to the River's Edge Adventure Company's main building. But, with all services on-board my trailer, I never needed the building. The site is a 5 minute drive from downtown Manitowish Waters and 10 mins from WinMan MTB trails. If you haven't been to that area in the last 5 years, go check it out again. There has been some BIG investment that has beautified the area nicely. Miles of nicely landscaped paved cycling paths. And for the mountain bikers, WinMan is epic. Restaurants, taverns, groceries, lakes, rivers ... Manitowish Waters has all that. Will be going back to spend some more time up there.

River's Edge Campsite 1
Super convenient to have access to a wide variety of outdoor activities to participate in. All of the staff was super friendly and made us feel like VIPs. Easy to access site with everything you need.
