Sites are quite private. Outhouses could have used a little cleaning.

Beautiful campground. I'm glad I brought a rake though and a shovel though. The site was covered in about 3 inches of pine needles and the fire pit was overflowing with old ashes. Otherwise it was a great experience :)

Only few comments: Kids were swimming off the handi-cap pier, no recycle pickup do to lack of personnel and no more wood sales. Not all the sites can be reserved is another deficit. Aside from the minor issues the stay was excellent. We will return again!

I have used Clubhouse Lake Campground many, many times beginning back in the 60's or 70's. Being retired I now go there weekdays to avoid any crowd, and it's always serene and peaceful. It is a beautiful setting populated with mature red pines and has a wonderful and clear lake that's great for swimming and fishing. A fishing pier is in place. With new asphalt pavement the drive in has five fewer miles of gravel road. At this time of the year (July) the mosquitos are plentiful so bring your repellent. If you want to drive out for a bite there's a breakfast/lunch place in the nearest town (Marcell), and a mile or two north of there a restaurant/bar/motel. The food is good and the prices decent at both places. Also at the town is an information center that can answer your questions and supply information about the area and its attractions. The locals are nice folks; friendly and helpful. I will be back for sure, and recommend it to you.
