We stayed a week in site 14, which is right next to the BassLake main road. We got used to the auto travel noise quickly and it wasn't the bother we thought it would be. Good back in access for our 28' TT. No afternoon shade, a pop up is necessary.
Great lake access for fishing or sitting lakeside as the water is right across the road.

The campsite hosts are doing a great job here. The site was clean, as were the bathrooms. They were always stocked with TP and soap, but bring your own towel for hand drying. I mentioned that we wanted to purchase firewood to the host checking us in at our site, and shortly after that someone delivered it to us. Space 10 had a good amount of shade and a good flat surface for our tent. We’ll be back.

Good site. Bring bug spray unless you want mosquitoes to make to do the rain dance.

The camping host was amazing, super friendly and he wanted us to have a good time in the trip. Bathroom were kept clean and plenty of toilet paper and hand soap. Definitely when a campground host is friendly makes a big difference in your stay. Thank you Matt.
