I love staying at Rock Crossing. The volunteers do a great job keeping the sites and restrooms in great shape. Our party of 3 stayed at 24a and 26a. Great shade, nice little path between sites and beautiful views from the edge. Highly recommend! Water levels were low but great for kayaking.
Only complaint I have is the people “hanging out” at the boat launch and congesting the area. There are signs saying it is for loading and unloading only 🤦🏻♀️

Beautiful and quiet. Lots of areas to explore. Site and bathrooms were very clean. Be sure to hit up the kettle corn guy in Pine on the way up!

I love this campground! The road in is improved since last summer but still has a few really bad spots. The road from the campground to the reservoir is a whole order of worse. If it becomes a fee based use area some serious investment is going to be needed!

The sites are very clean and well maintained. There is a big bear proof box for storage which was great! There was also a nice level area to set up a tent, a large fire ring, and a picnic table. There are also several bathrooms throughout the campgrounds that are well-maintained and super clean!

Very clean and beautiful. Camp host was amazing. Truly sad that the people running that site are volunteers as opposed to a few years ago, that was not the case.

Good campground. 3 or 4 outhouses with pit toilets. Dog friendly. Good views. People were generally quiet and respectful. Dirt road on the way in is bumpy, so plan accordingly :)
