Lake was being drawn down with no notification to campers. REALLY messed up the fish spawn. A few people even hit stumps not used to the lake.
I wish the CORP would help notify campers , through this website , if there is some sort of major water level difference to be prepared for in any instance.

We had an amazing time at Tompkins Bend! The views of the Lake are beautiful and the trees give a nice amount of shade. The bathhouse was well taken care of. We will definitely be back again!

We had a great time. However, the parking pad has a large drop of to ground level, very dangerous. My wife fell and sprained her ankle very badly. Other than that, we had a great time.

Please cut the sweet gum tree down. Who wants to park under it. And it is half dead.
