We had a great weekend at Findley camp. Our camp site was perfect for our 2 tents, and the facilities were well kept. The lake is beautiful and would be great for kayaking (we didn’t bring our kayaks).

For the past 2 years we have booked at least half of the campground for a family birthday gathering. We have been going to Jackson Meadows since 1968, but restrictions for off road vehicles on the east side of the lake have sent us to Findley, where we can ride right out to the spectacular sights of Faucherie, Bowman, and even to Washington for lunch. The bathrooms are kept clean and the hosts leave you alone as you basically follow established rules.

The layers on the map were off at the time I reserved two of the camp sites. Because if this, it appeared as though the sites were closer to the water, ...when in actually, they weren’t. I understand that it was a mishap/glitch, because a week later, the layers were correct. We still had a great time.

Most of the sites were adequately spaced, all of them we're clean, and the bathrooms were neat and clean. We stayed in No. 9. It was a nice site, though there was only one level tent pad (we had our 20' trailer but I noticed the limited level spots for tents in No. 9). When coming from the East, the last mile-or-so to the campground is rough for travel trailers, but reducing my speed addressed my concerns. Coming from the West (i.e. Bowman Lake) is much rougher and challenging, especially for lower clearance vehicles, vehicles with highway tires, and vehicles pulling trailers. I recommend coming from the East unless you have a high clearance vehicle and all terrain tires (but NOT towing a trailer or driving an RV). If you have a trailer or RV, coming from the East would be significantly less risky.

Great campground. Most sites are very spaced out and not right on top of each other. Flush toilets, water, a dumpster and bear boxes are provided which was great. My one complaint is that the map on the website was not accurate. We booked campsite #10 which on the map is showing where #11 is. There was no camp host but we had no issues. It is not by the lake so you can't walk to the lake but we mostly explored other areas like Faucherie Lake etc. No 4x4 needed to access the campground which I saw some other guests mention in other online reviews.
