Nelson Dewey State Park is a small park with nice wooded campsites. There are not a lot of trails, so if hiking is your jam you may want to pick a different state park. The hikes we did complete gave us nice views of the Wisconsin River and Mississippi River. This campground also offers some secluded walk in campsites for tent camping.
If you enjoy visiting state parks, you could definitely visit both Nelson Dewey and Wyalusing State Park on the same trip. Wyalusing is about 35 minutes north of Nelson Dewey along the Mississippi River. It is definitely worth the drive and a great option if you can't find camping at one or the other. Wyalusing offers camping and hiking trails as well. We recently decided we want to pursue visiting all the Wisconsin State Parks. I found a WI State Park map checklist on Etsy that is a great way to keep track.
