Located in East Troy, Wisconsin, Camp Kettlewood is a private, boutique campground set on 80 acres of old growth forest, shaded nature trails, and protected wetlands. Campsites are set spaciously apart from one another, so campers can feel like they have their own private corner of the woods. Camp Kettlewood has charming campsites for both the ‘indoorsy’ and ‘outdoorsy’ alike.
Our mission is to take the hassle out of camping and provide you with a comfortable experience at the same time. Our vintage trailers, platforms tents, and antique cabins are all ready for your arrival, so there's no set up or take down. You're able to show up, kick back, and enjoy the sounds of nature from the comfort of your camping unit. Each site is equipped with comfortable beds, gas grills & various cooking equipment, hammocks, string lights, authentic vintage decorations, and bundles of firewood. We also have two brand new bathroom buildings with flush toilets and open-air rainfall showers.
Although we have some modern amenities, please do keep in mind that at the end of the day, it's still camping. You'll be sharing the woods with local wildlife- like deer, turtles, songbirds, and yes- bugs. You might even get a little dirty. And though there isn't any WiFi, we promise you'll find a better connection while you're here.

ANTIQUE SCOUT CABINS
All of our antique Scout cabins are dated back to at least the 1940s and were originally built on the grounds of another Girl Scout camp near by. We carefully moved 8 of them here this fall and now guests are able to enjoy the cabins on their new forever sites.
All of our cabins are decorated with vintage decor and furniture that we’ve hand picked from flea markets over the years. The antique Scout cabins plus the vintage decor ensures your stay here is a truly special, historical experience.

TESTIMONIALS
“...The bathrooms were private and super clean, which us a huge plus since we had smaller kids with us. All tents are very well maintained and bedding was fresh and smelled great, no musky smell. The bedding was also perfect for the chilly nights and we didn't need any extra blankets. The hosts also provide utensils, dishes, bug spray, etc for you which is great in case you forgot anything. We are already looking to book again this season as it was just such a great spot! Camp Kettlewood is perfect for when you like camping, but also need to be comfortable."

“...The bath houses/showers were so well kept and we never had to wait to use the bathroom or showers even with the entire campground booked. Everything was clean and comfortable, and not a detail was overlooked. From the fire pits with included kindling and firewood, to the sweet details of the trailer, we would and hope to absolutely return for another trip to this magical place. I have traveled all over the world, and this little piece of heaven was one of the most memorable places I’ve ever had the pleasure to stay. I’m so grateful to the owners for their kindness and vision, and have already told so many people that they need to experience Camp Kettlewood."
