What Guests Are Saying
Wishon Bass Lake offers a lovely campground experience with great weather, private and spacious sites, and excellent access to Miller's Landing for boat rentals and amenities. Many campers appreciate the friendly and helpful camp host, who enhances their stay. However, there are notable concerns regarding the cleanliness and functionality of restrooms, as many experienced issues with portable toilets and locked facilities, which detracted from an otherwise enjoyable visit.

Arrived at 6pm. First impression not good. Cigarette buds and trash., including cups and sanitary wipes on the ground. Also table was in need of serious repair. Peeling paint and falling apart. Very unstable. Restrooms were non operable but porte potties were provided. Also the parking situation was not good. Very uneven parking provided. Only positive camp site was close proximity to lake. And camp host was super nice, Camp ground has some serious maintenance issues.

We love coming here every year. Our only small complaint is that we wish they’d give us free tokens for showers once a day.

The most outstanding thing about the campground was the host. I don't remember her name, but she was a retire schoolteacher. She found us another site that was suitable for us to stay in a trailer. She came by often to make sure we were happy with the new site, and all was good. I have been going to this campsite for years and never had a camp host as friendly and caring as her.
The bear problem is much better since installation of bear boxes. The only negative experience was the water was shut off the last two days. They did bring in portable toilets, but we couldn't
get water to wash dishes so most of our party has to leave a day earlier than planned.

Camp site 34 was very spacious, lots of shade in the day and two trees close to hang out hammock. Bathrooms close walking distance but not too close where it felt uncomfortable. We also had water area so we didn’t have to walk far to fill our bucket for dishes. The lake was amazing, was maybe a 4 min drive (maybe 15 min walk) The camp sites are close to eachother so not very quiet when it’s busy season. Over all we loved our stay!

The staff members at the reservation office were very welcoming and helpful and so was the camp hostess. She checked to make sure I was warm enough during a cold rain storm.

Wishon is in a nice setting overlooking the lake, and with potential to be a great campground. It is, however, a tad neglected and fallen in disrepair. Anywhere from the bumpy road, to the unlevel sites, and to the damaged trash bins with holes at the bottom (leading to animals rummaging thru garbage spread in the ground), it could really use some serious maintenance. Especially considering we’re paying $52 per site, one would expect better conditions and higher quality service.

The camp grounds are not being maintained, Road ways is in very poor condition Also We reserved Camp site #026 and got charged 4X's the amount because it was a double site, Where it stated it was a single site, NOT HAPPY AT ALL !!!!!! I asked to split the amount and was told NO! Not going back.
