Top 5 Things to Bring with You Camping in Wisconsin

Camping in Wisconsin is all about adventure, relaxation, and making memories. When you rent a camper from Willies Rentals, you’re already set up with all the essentials—bedding, cookware, utensils, and more. But to take your trip from good to great, here are five personal must-bring items that will enhance your experience.

1. Firewood & Fire Starters 🔥

Nothing beats the crackle of a campfire under the Wisconsin night sky. Since most campgrounds require you to bring local firewood (to prevent spreading pests), pick some up before you arrive. A good lighter or waterproof matches will save you the hassle of struggling to get it started.

2. A Killer Camp Playlist & Bluetooth Speaker 🎶

Wisconsin’s scenic views deserve the perfect soundtrack. Whether you're into country, classic rock, or campfire acoustic vibes, a Bluetooth speaker and a solid camping playlist will set the mood for every adventure. Just keep the volume respectful of fellow campers!

3. Hiking Boots & Bug Spray 🥾🦟

With trails ranging from Devil’s Lake to the Northwoods, you’ll want sturdy hiking boots for exploring. And don’t forget bug spray—Wisconsin’s mosquitoes love a good camping trip just as much as you do.

4. A Deck of Cards or Your Favorite Camp Game 🃏

Evenings at the campsite are perfect for a little friendly competition. Whether it’s cards, dice, or a favorite board game, having something to play during downtime is a must. Plus, it's a great way to bond with your camping crew.

5. Your Favorite Local Snacks & Drinks 🍻🌭

Sure, your camper comes with everything to cook meals, but nothing beats Wisconsin-made brats, cheese curds, or a six-pack from a local brewery. Stock up on your road trip to make your nights around the fire extra special.
