Beautiful park. Close to Hot Springs. Only complaint is there are no hosts on site. Heard they have been permanently removed

This is a great park for family fun. Nice swim area and good clean campsites. Big boat launch ramp with lots of parking and a fish cleaning station. Highly recommended.

Another great visit to Crystal Springs.
This has become our favorite place.
Some spots are not level, but our leveling blocks made it perfect.

We camped 5 nights in site 41, great view and access to the beach, shaded site most of the day and fairly level. Bath house was clean and in good repair, had cellular service through T-Mobile, even though there is no WIFI the cell service allowed us to maintain connection to the outside world. If you have a boat you are close enough to lake to pull your boat up on shore and walk up to your campsite just a few feet away... great place to camp! Would recommend a visit to Charlton Camp ground just up the road towards Mt. Ida, or if your really adventurous hike there, jump in the swimming hole to cool off....
