What Guests Are Saying
Meadowview Campground is a lovely spot for family and nature lovers, with beautiful scenery, clean campsites, and a friendly camp host who provides helpful information. Many visitors appreciate the reserved spots, convenient amenities, and proximity to the lake, making it a charming choice for camping. However, there are concerns about overcrowding, rule enforcement, and the lack of showers, which some found challenging during busier weekends.

Not keeping the number of campers in a single campsite. A lot of abuse of the rules in regards to r this issue
Also, a lot of campers not keeping dogs on leads while in camp. I was challenged by dogs running out of camp sites while walking my dog. Being told by the camper “my dog is nice! “Yes, nice until their not!
I don’t want by dog injured.
Hopefully next year Dodge Ridge will aleast try to enforce the written rules!

It was nice to have a spot reserved and not having to drive around the campsites to look for a spot. The trees around us was beautiful and great short drive to the lake. I definitely recommend it to everyone.

Campsite was so charming, beutiful, close to the lake but a bit quieter than the pinecrest campgrounds. There was a coffee shop walking distance too, and an adorable kitten :) would for sure come back....but watch out for bears!
