The campground is lovely any time of the year. The hosts are very friendly and we always enjoy our stay.
Is there a reason there are no swings on the swing sets in either of the playgrounds? This is such a fundamental playground piece. I know the children and many adults would appreciate them being added back to the existing equipment.

We LOVE Prairie Creek. The staff is always so nice and accommodating. The sites are a good size and it is so peaceful and quiet. My kids have the best time at the playground and riding their bikes. We have stayed multiple times and will continue to go back when we have the opportunity. The cell service isnt the best but it honestly gives me a "reason" to disconnect and enjoy my time with my family.

Excellent slots, friendly staff, very easy in and out. I will be coming back in the future. Park is clean, on the river, wild life everywhere. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

We have stayed at Prairie Creek Campground several times and really like the park. We had two incidents during our visit this time. First, the men’s bathroom on the River side was out of toilet paper for two days. Not a big deal, I just took mine. When I saw the cleaning person I let her know. She let me know the entrance building keeps some which is good to know for future stays.
The second incident was with one of the camp workers smoking marijuana. It had been a couple of years since we had visited Prairie Creek and noticed two campers parked behind the old closed bath house. The man that was smoking the marijuana was staying in one of those.
