This is our fourth year! Joan and Dennis are two of the BEST campground owners you will ever meet. We have been to alot of camp grounds in the last 10 years and we can say by far this is the BEST!

This will be our 4th Memorial Day weekend. We are looking forward to seeing Dennis and Joan, they treat us like family. We have gone to many different campgrounds, but always come back to Pete's as it is one of the cleanest campgrounds we have found and love to see the new things they have added. We love the ICE CREAM and think this year that Joan should sound a horn or send up a flare when switching ice cream flavors.

This will be our fourth year at Pete's as seasonal campers and we absolutely love it. Before becoming seasonal campers, we were weekend campers spending alot of time at different campgrounds and none can compare to Pete's. Dennis and Joan run a very family orientated, organized and clean campground. We are very blessed to be a part of the Pete's seasonal family. We can't wait for the season to begin and to see all of our wonderful friends that we have made.

We're loving our first season at Pete's. We've felt nothing but welcome and have enjoyed meeting new families. Our daughter Sierra has probably met your dog! Griffin our 1yr 10 mos. old says "I go to camper at "Pizza Treat" Thanks for the Fun!

Okay it is March 4th and Nick is still saying, "I go pampin at pete's" He is only 3 years old but he knows a good campground when he see's it. I was able to work PT for a hobby weekend for Coates RV Center at this year's camping show and got to see a few familiar "Pete's Faces" and we can't wait for the camping season to begin. I kind of spread the word about Pete's to people that had seasonals at other campgrounds and a familiar response was, "Our campground does not offer that" or "where is this place? "we will have to check them out". See you in a couple months.

We came to Petes Retreat in Sept 2008. We had such a great first month at Pete's! We came from a camp ground in Miltona Mn we were at as seasonals for 3 years. We were so sick of all the loud partiers! We felt so fortunate to be at Petes Retreat as it is a family camp ground! The people are all so nice! Our girls love all the activities. We also love getting our ice cream and treats up at the lodge. We always are so welcome at the lodge and we love that!
We are really excited to meet more people at Pete's. Please come by our site to see us and have a pop. We love to meet new people! If you like to play mexican train stop by for a fun game!

During the summer months our family is rarely home. We try to camp as much as we can. Camping at Pete's is almost addictive! Our two girls (ages 4 1/2 and 2 1/2) don't want to leave when Sunday rolls around. From the weekend activities to splashing in the pool, we are always having a great time! Pete's is hands down the best campground we have ever been to!! Thanks to Dennis and Joan for creating such a great family hide-away!!

Camping at Pete's is awesome. Dennis & Joan are some of the nicest people ever, definitely the nicest campground owners we have met. There is always something going on at Pete's. Our daughter is never bored when we are there. I also love how big the sites are and how clean everything is. It is very well kept and no detail is missed. They make it feel like a TRUE family campground.

Staying at Pete's makes it difficult to go anywhere else, as they just don't compare! From the size of the sites, to the activities and hospitality, they do a great job! Everything is kept very clean, geared towards families in every aspect -- you can't go wrong when you stay at Pete's. Thanks for everything you do!

We keep watching the web site and see today now there are only 3 seasonal spots left. If you are considering a seasonal spot you will not find any other nicer than the seasonal family at Pete's. So what are you waiting for, join the fun and become a seasonal camper. You don't have to worry about reservations, you can camp anytime you want during the camping season, just pack some clothes and groceries and head up to the camper. Don't deny yourself the opportunity to become a seasonal camper at an exceptional campground.

We love Pete's !! The sites are so big and everything is so clean.Maybe someday we will get a seasonal site. We have never been disappointed by anything at Pete's.The only bad thing about Pete's is having to wait until it's warm enough to go. We miss you guys and can hardly wait.
Love, Bill, Cookie and Willie

Here it is already February 2010 and my kids can't wait to get back to the camper for this years camping season. We have been a seasonal now for a few years and have nothing but great things to say about Petes. From the hayrides and kids activities to the pool and the lodge, this is by far one of the best campgrounds around. Keep up the great work Dennis and Joan!, we will be seeing you soon.

This will be our fourth year as seasonal campers at Pete's and we just love being a part of the campground family. Out of all the campgrounds we have been to in our years of camping, Pete's far out measures all of them. If you want a friendly, clean, family camping experience Pete's will provide that for you and your family. Dennis and Joan are the best!!!!!!!!

Not too long ago my wife asked when we were going to take our vacation. And of course i didn't know- so she suprised me and made reservations at pete's. With a big smile and quickly agreed that pete's was the place to go again this year the whole family is anxious to be going back this year. Thanks to everyone at Pete's for making our camping vacation a tradition at Pete's
for many years to come...

Just got home from being at Pete's Retreat. The whole family had fun and they all thought each site was very roomy and everyone was so nice and helpful we are considering going back up there next year. We will highly recommend Pete's Retreat to everyone that asks us where there is a very good campground to go to.

We have been at petes for three years and there is nothing like it. Joan and Dennis are great we always have a good time and my grand children have learned that camping is coming and of course they know when halloween is at petes. It a great place to share family times and we sure have had three great years.

We just finished our first "seasonal" camping season ever and we chose Pete's Retreat for several reasons. My wife and I have been campers since we have been together, almost 12 years. Each campground we went to we sort of interviewed the campground for the potential of being our seasonal campground someday. From the North Shore, to NW Wisconsin, to Brainerd and and all, we found it was difficult to compare any other campground to Pete's Retreat. The sites are huge, the shower/bath houses are always clean and it truely is a family run campground as you will see the kids doing something all the time whether it be picking up garbage, light lawn work, cleaning the bathrooms etc. No other campground compares in our opinion to the experience you get when you stay at Pete's Retreat. We are already signed up to return as seasonals next year in 2009 and look forward to meeting more of the campers too. Dennis and Joan run a pretty tight ship which is good, it's the first campground we have stayed at that you don't hear the drunk yelling from the other end of the campground all night long. We like it at Pete's and look forward to the times when we can go camping. Think Spring!!

We camped twice at Pete's Retreat during summer 2008 and had a great time! Our children really enjoyed it, the campground is so safe we don't worry about them going out on their own with the other children. If you camp there in 2009, be sure to look for us, we hope to be there several weekends!

Pete's Retreat is by far the greatest camping experience a family can have. The sites are huge, the facilities are very clean, the owners/staff are very friendly, and there are themed activities every week-end. We love Pete's Retreat and look forward to camping there in 2009!

Dennis and Joan are family friends and we have camped at Pete's Retreat a few times and have had a lot of fun. Sites are HUGE and very clean. Bathrooms have always been very clean and every year they add more activities for the entire family. Fishing and Golf are close so most people can find things to do pretty easily. Keep up the great work Dennis and Joan. :-) :-)

Pete's Retreat has got to be our favorite campground anywhere, and you'd be hard pressed to find a more family oriented place! We have visited in a group with other families and also on our own - and we always have a great time! It can be as active or as relaxed as you choose. Dennis and Joan are both so helpful and friendly -- and the pride they take in their campground is obvious. They could have built at least twice as many sites, but the size and layout of their sites proves quality is way better than quantity! The only thing we don't like about it is that it is too far away from us to have a seasonal site there -- but we'll be back for at least a couple of weekends every year!

This will be my sister and I 4th time coming up to Pete's Retreat.We always love coming up on memorial day weekend to enjoy the new and exiciting activities.When we stay there we always create new and enjoyable memories.My favorite part of going up there is to devour one of their delicious ice cream cones.My sister's favorite part is going swimming in their heated pool.By far we agree that Pete's Retreat is our favorite out of our other camping sities, because of the great service and beautiful camp sities.
