We had a good time at the campground. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The only bad experience we had was a bear broke into our tent. Mathew, the campground manager was helpful and told us that they have been asking for Bear Boxes for some time now. We agree that it would be a good addition to the campgrounds.

It was very hot, but so much better than home. The lake was an Oasis, and the campground clean, inviting and well taken care of. Our camp host was Carmen, we felt welcomed and informed and she kept the facilities sparkling. Plus she was so caring.
We are going camping again in September and look forward to the trip!

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.

We saw a decent sized bear and the facilities were functional and clean.
