Had to wait almost 2 hours before we could go to our site,although it was empty,bathhouse was closed in our loop but open in the other loop,had problems getting a guest in to visit for a couple of hours,management on the upper level needs to be more considerate of campers and rates have increased over 33%,to much of a increase,with no additional amenities added

We got there at 9:00 a.m. because we saw online that the site was not used the night before. We have done this many, many times in the last approx. 18 years. I never see anyone at the check-in station since covid, so I called and was told I would have to pay for another day to checkin before 2;00. Is it right to pay for a night you did not stay. As we were about to leave we saw a man in what I thought was a Forestry Truck, so I ask him if we could park at Day Use until 2:00. He told us we could if we paid $10.00 for a day pass. Last year the campground price for someone was $20.00 if they had a senior pass, & now it is $30.00. (50% increase) I told the man in the truck I would promise him this was our last time to camp here. When we left we got down the road about a mile and there the man was siting on the side of the road, I assume waiting to make sure we were leaving. $36. a night is the price for non-seniors. Every other campground we have been to that accepts the senior card gives 50% off and is cheaper before the discount. The park is nice, but they will never find us there again. I do not recommend this park because of the way its run. I had to go look someone up to let a couple who had reservations but could not get in the park. They did not have an e-mail to get the gate code sent to them. Also there is a new contract company "BA" running the place, which may be the reason for this. When The Cradle of Forestry, & American Land And Leisure, ran this park it was much better experience.

My family and I love the time that we get to spend together! It seems like time slows down on the lake! Our children and grandchildren swam and we all got out and walked! We are making memories that will last a lifetime!!!

Great, large campsites with full hookup. Beautiful lake. However, Firefly loop restrooms were closed due to covid. Doesn't make sense to us why make all campers use one restroom in Yellow Hammer loop. Just made more people go to one place.

As always it is well kept, very clean and nice, staff are friendly. The only request I would make is to repair the old swimming area as it was in the 1980's where you could walk the trails from the campground, I have always noticed when we are camping no one is at the newer swimming area.
The beauty is still there and we still try to walk the old trails that holds such great memories and I do believe it would bring in even more people who like us remember when... And the newer swimming has pea gravel which hurt peoples feet and i think that is why they stopped comming to swim. I understand the problem wake boats can cause but just add a larger No Wake area to keep sand on beaches.
Camp hosts are great!!!

Kind of a partial review because this is our go to camping destination, but, we'll list the reasons why. Always clean. All of it. The sites, the showerhouses, the beach, the roadways, toilets, showers, overflow area, etc., etc. You can tell that the folks that maintain the place take a lot of pride in the appearance and overall maintenance of the entire recreation area, not just the camping areas. Staff is very easy to work with, polite, professional, and courteous. They have items on hand for sale that will cover the little forgotten things, i.e. beach towels, firewood, ice. As mentioned at the beginning of this review, this is now our got to place to camp. We have a 21' fish 'n' ski plus a 27' fifth wheel and there are numerous sites on Yellowhammer loop that are large enough to accommodate all of our toys. There is also an overflow area that is large enough for boats, vehicles, etc. We used to travel to Panama City or Gulf Shores but haven't been there in several years since finding this little jewel. Overall, for boating and camping, the best campground that we've found to stay. BTW, there is a GREAT grocery store 15 minutes from the campground, in Double Springs, that has the most amazing deli. Everything from salads that are always fresh to sandwiches to sides to dessert items. There are both historical and natural attractions nearby as well - Old Houston Jail, Oldest church in the state, Natural Bridge, etc. We have had nothing but pleasant experiences at Corinth and stay there at least 3 to 4 times each year. You absolutely can't go wrong with this campground!
