Wisconsin State Parks
Ive been to many state parks and I absolutely loved this one, a bit upset that the stairs and trails were closed to the big rock areas so thats why I give it a four star, I feel they could have put it on the website before but beautiful state park, amazing trails, cool teepee near park and toilet area, forestry and dense at points Four of us went in October 2012 and we were delighted with the fabulous stairs with railings and the Fall view was just absolutely beautiful in every direction. 
I love going to this park. Are the stairs completed yet?
Drove from Appleton to xx-ski only to find no trails have been groomed for skiing. Considering we have a state parks sticker, we could not use the park as it is designated in the Wisconsin Travel Guide. This information should have been listed on the park website. yes the steps are closed and it is posted on the DNR website, at the office, and at the steps. Steps are missing and the wood is in very bad shape. They hope to start replacing them this fall and hope to have them open mid summer 2011. Check the Wi DNR website under Roche-A-Cri to know they are open. To you who is mad that you got a fine of $175 you should be happy the max fine is $263. Maybe you should think before going into a closed area!
It clearly states in several places that the stairs are closed, and long before you have to pay any fee. Oh, and wood does have a tendency to rot....so that makes it a bad park? Wow. This is one of our favorites and we go to state parks all over the state of WI. We enjoy the small number of sites, quiet, well kept. The stairs are not the only attraction - and it is posted online that they are closed until further notice. Went Aug 2010, paid park fee, stairs closed, they wait for you to use them and give a $175 fine per person. Will be closed at least another year.
