Great Family camping destination. It can be a loud with the neighbors not being very considerate at night but that's not always the case. Usually a nice casual lake atmosphere.

We have been going to LGV for over 30 years. Still our favorite place to go. I am an avid fisherman and I love doing early morning trolling and I never get skunked. Beautiful clear, cool water. The trail is a great walk to the inlet and back.
My only complaint is the website doesn’t show space numbers on a map. That would be very helpful for us trailer people.

We love this campground and have been coming to the reservoir for more than 30 years. Close to town in case you "forgot" something. Always clean. We go in the fall - it is very quiet!!

Been going to Little beaver for a few years now. Campsites & Restrooms clean. If bringing in an RV watch for overhead impediments on road & campsites.

It was beautiful, quiet, and serene. Some camp sites a right on the lake. Bathrooms were ok, water was near, and garbage was near. There is a fire pit for a campfire with a grate, and a separate cooking pit with a grate. Bear locker was great.
