What Guests Are Saying
Minersville Campground offers a nice camping experience, though some guests feel the $60 fee for a non-hookup site is steep, especially given the limited flat space for tents. Reviewers noted issues with overflowing trash and the need for more frequent restroom servicing. Despite these concerns, many appreciate the location and enjoy their time at the campground.

Spot #6 has zero shade until around 7:30 PM. Trees around the space but the only shade option is underneath the picnic table. It's overgrown and has lots of poison oak. My assumption is that no one has used it in a long time which is why it's overgrown. We ended up leaving because the temps were in the high 90's this weekend. If you are here in the fall, it might be a good spot. Summer is a no-go for this spot.

Spot #5 has minimal shade but is mostly shady in the late afternoon to evening. There isn't a lot of flat ground for tents so bring a hard rake to make your own, that's what we did. The bathrooms are very clean and the maintenance man was extremely helpful. The lake is very, very low so getting to it from the camp spot is very tough. You have to go about 2 miles down the road to the marina or the boat ramp area. Do not camp here if you are after lakeside camping, it's not that! If you do, bring mosquito spray. They had a feast on us!

Restroom well kept and clean! Campsites spacious and well kept also. Be careful not to let kids or animals play to close to restrooms due to an abundant amount of poison oak growing near that area.

This Lake is not at all nice when it comes to lakeside relaxing. the water levels are EXTREMELY low and you will need to hike down about 200 yards to reach the water. This is a MUST have boat lake if you want to have any fun at all. Do not Recommend this Lake unless you have a boat!
