Round Lake State Park
Round Lake State Park is seeking grant funding from the Recreation Vehicle (RV) Fund to update the campground in the park. The campground was built in the 1950’s and few improvements have been made since then. Many of the sites are ill equipped to handle RVs. This project will level, lengthen, widen, or reconfigure many of the sites to make them more RV friendly. Defined living pads will be installed to reduce impacts from campers spreading out in the sites. Portions of the campground roads will be widened.
