Campsite pics & new maps

The photo above is of campsite number 336 in the lower Ice Age loop.  If you’ve not seen them before we offer clickable maps with photos of about 70% of the campsites within the park.  Since moving to the new layout I’ve added back both the Ice Age Campground & The Northern Lights Campground images.  Click Here.  Adding the Quartzite images will take a bit longer as we never did have a good map set up and now’s a good time to do it. 

In addition you will find two new maps of available shelters added to the park shelters page and the large map of the complete park added to the information section as well (or just click here)

I think that’s about it for the moment.  Updating a website is much like moving into a new house.  In the beginning you can’t find anything.  Hopefully we’re in a bit more order.

All the best!

Campground Maps

I’ve added back the campground maps. Each are the official printable pdf files.

The lake depth map has also been added under the Fishing page as well.

Down Time

Finally!  After 5 days of being down we are back up.  I don’t even want to begin to tell you all the problems we had with the hosting server.  Well, at least we’re up and running now.   As I mentioned in the previous post, a lot has changed on the site.  Hopefully you’ll still find everything you are looking for.  And yes, the rates info has been updated for 2008.  For everyone who visits the park in the winter, keep in mind that we have entered the new year and it’s time again to purchase a new sticker.

New Dlk Website

Welcome!  With a ton of snow on the ground at the moment it seemed like the perfect time to update DevilsLakeWisconsin.com before the summer season hits. You’re apt to find a few technical errors here and there at the moment through out the site. I decided to set up DevilsLakeWisconsin.com up through a different management system that makes it a bit easier to update and manage.  The down side of course is that we had to change servers and completely go through all the data.  Then we ended up with the  website down for a couple days.  Sorry for that.

I’ve still not managed to work out a good way to use a messageboard on this website. We seem to be a particular target for spam. If I can solve that issue I will put up a new board.  Something I’m looking into.  However for the moment it’s not worth sorting all the adult content each morning to have the message board.

I will use this blog to keep you up to date with happenings at the website and at the park.  Just remember this site is NOT officially sactioned by the park and as much as the staff has been supportive, I can’t gaurentee all the info here, and if you NEED to be sure of something please call the Devil’s Lake office at 608.356.8301

Lastly, now is a good time to remind you that reservations for the big holiday weekends fill right NOW.  So if you even have a hope of getting a campsite at Devil’s Lake during peak season you need to get those reservations secured ASAP.
