Do the Monday blues have you down? Here... sit down, drink your coffee and enjoy the view. 😉

When you're done, go put in for some vacation time and you can come and enjoy the view in person.

Whether you’re looking for a getaway with the family, a place to stay while enjoying the park, or just want to escape the everyday for a little while… our cabins make it easy!

6-person cabins — $100/night
12-person cabin — $125/night

If you're worried you missed an opportunity this year, cabins 1–4 are available YEAR ROUND, while Cabin 5 closes for the winter months.

We're always bummed to see summer winding down, but we sure do love embracing the cooler, rainy days. 🍂

Today's crew is sipping on pumpkin spice coffee and scrubbing the cabins from ceiling to floor! ☕️🍁

Work isn't so bad with good coffee and an even better view.

To our friends that love dark skies and shooting stars... this one's for you! ⬇️

Blackhawk Lake will be going DARK the weekend of September 11th through September 13th. The lights from the beach sites all the way to the boat landing will be turned off for optimal sky viewing!

With a new moon on September 10th and the September Epsilon Perseid meteor shower peaking over the weekend, you certainly won't want to miss it! Both beach and boat landing parking lots will be open for you to kick back, relax, and enjoy the view.

Grab your gear, book a site, and join us for a weekend of gazing at our beautiful sky!

To book, please call the office at 608-623-2707 or visit our website at www.blackhawklake.com

We would like to clear the air... the beach is OPEN for swimming!

There have been many calls and messages over the last few weeks with concerns about the beach being closed. We're just here to say that the rumors are not true.

Blackhawk Lake complies with all state water testing and we are prompt to post any closures when needed.

If you know the two bosses around here, you probably know we're really picky. We've been staring at cabin 5 for the last few seasons, so badly wanting to do updates. It was covered in a thick paint that hid the natural wood grain and the deck needed some serious work. The problem is that there hasn't been a single time period where this cabin has been open for us to make those improvements.

This week we magically had 4 days to make it happen, and let us tell you, it was 4 FULL days of hard work. We had to strip the old paint off, pressure wash it, twice, sand the entire thing, stain the walls, and paint the deck and trim.

It was a LOT! But boy it was so worth it.

Hey everybody! We bought a new parking lot!

Traffic will be routed around the lot today, so please keep an eye out. If you need anything from the office, you'll be asked to park in the grass behind the building. Thanks for your patience while we make improvements!
