Another great stay at Burchfield. Very quiet and peaceful. So many different types of wildlife, Cranes, Warblers, Hawks, Otters, and Racoons. Looking forward to our next visit.

One of the best places I have ever been camping. Peaceful, clean, and a lot to do. You will not be disappointed going here.

Beautiful, well kept campground. Spots look tight but very easy to get into, even with a fifth wheel. We only stayed as a stop-over but we’ll definitely be back.

Enjoyed our stay. Clean restrooms and showers with plenty of hot water. Our site was on the water where we could sit and watch barges going by. Camp host were helpful with any questions or concerns. There is NO cell service at the campground. However, we are definitely planning to return.

Corps of Engineers need to get cell phone service.
I was actively involved in trying to save a man from an accidental drowning and could not dial 911.
The park itself was fantastic:)

All we did was camp. I walked my dog most of our time there. We don't have a boat so water activities are out of the question. Neither of us swim however there is a great beach swimming area for those that do. There is a playground and picnic area. The sites are clean and level and you aren't on top of each other like some campgrounds.

Nice clean please but NO CELL service, satellite wouldn’t pick up and antenna would only pick up 1 channel. Would be fine if it were warmer for the grand critters to romp and play outside. I’ll camp there again but in the warmer months!

Arrived at 6:30 pm and the gate was closed. Took quite a while to find the camp host to give us the code. The deck was on the wrong side word the camper which made it difficult to use although many of the sites the deck was on the on the correct side. The view was very nice and scenic in the early morning as the sun began to rise.
