The Boca Campground is beautiful, but I don’t enjoy the yellow dirt surface, especially with high winds!

We have multiple campsites together and took the whole section of the campground. The campground host lets us park our trailers, whatever is convenient for us. That’s much better! At least we can use our trailer to block the wind. But the yellow dirt is still all over the outside and inside our trailers. I spent two weeks cleaning my trailer after camping!

This is a very nice campground with a wonderful host. The only trouble is its close proximity to a gun shooting range. The sound of gunshots at the crack of dawn is unsettling and I bet if you could ask the bald eagles, they would agree.

Wow! What a beautiful camp ground. The host was friendly and kept the camp ground in perfect shape. The bathrooms where always clean and stocked. I was impressed with each camp site and having the bear boxes added that extra sense of security.

This camp is a beautiful setting with NO WATER! The $$ value is less than expected. If you drive down the road there’s a general store. You can draw water there for $10.00.
I had 27 people in different camp sites which were spacious.

Very clean and beautiful spot. People catching fish by the dam. People having fun on boats and jet skis ! Free public gun range on the lake !! This one by far is my favorite campsite. Deer and wildlife everywhere. If you’re fishing I advise going as early as possible especially if you’re trolling. By 10-11a there’s A LOT of people out on boats, jet skis, kayaks, paddle boards. Overall WILL BE BACk 10/10 !!!
