The Cabin by the Bay in the south campground provides fully accessible indoor camping for persons with disabilities. The cabin is equipped with a low counter, stove, microwave and refrigerator. Two hospital beds, a full-sized sofa sleeper, and two cots accommodate up to six people. Amenities include a bathroom with a wheel-in shower, heating, air conditioning, and a screened porch.
A committee of people with disabilities helped design the cabin to make it highly useable by a variety of people. The cabin is one of seven accessible cabins in Wisconsin’s state parks and forests.
