The park rangers were very nice when we stopped them for help. The only thing I would recommend is putting water at each campsite.

The campground grounds do not appear to be maintained very well. There were several dead pine limbs that fell out of trees close to our camp, if they were to land on a camper trailer, tent, or vehicle would do some damage or seriously hurt someone. Dead tree limbs are on the ground throughout the campground, and lots of poison ivy.
From what we were told by a couple of other folks that have stayed at Shouse Ford over the years not as many people camp here like they use to.
The facilities are maintained, but the grounds are lacking.

We had a great time camping at Shouse Ford. However, there have not been any upgrades or preventative maintenance preformed to the campground in years and it shows... Please upgrade the campground... a lot of the campsites have erosion issues around the camper pads, some of the tent pads are in disrepair, etc... Also, adding water/sewer to the campsites would be a great help to campers!

Site would be okay if it is not raining. There are 3 sites that drain into this one and becomes a swamp. Tent pad stayed dry but eating area and activity area was ankle deep of water. Other than that no issues.
