What Guests Are Saying
Minersville Campground offers a cozy atmosphere with beach access, well-maintained restrooms, and a pleasant level of privacy due to its limited campsites. Many guests enjoyed the welcoming environment and nearby amenities, such as the Trinity Lake Resort & Marina. However, some visitors noted concerns about noise from weekend groups and found the pricing for certain sites to be high, especially when lacking hookups.

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!

We arrived to our campsite, #6, to find out that it was very exposed to the other campsites and had almost no shade. Minersville lake looks like it could be very beautiful, though as the rainfall was low this year, the lake was too. If you are looking for an experience that does not include a lot of motorized boats on the lake, choose another place!

Our site was spacious and the campground was not very crowded (we were there mid-week and during COVID-19, so that could be why). The bathrooms were clean and our site had decent shade. The lake does not really have good swimming beaches. The descent to the water is steep and then the shoreline is either rocky or muddy and there is no shade. It's really a boating lake, not a swimming lake, and we were bummed about that. If you plan to rent a boat, be sure to make those reservations before coming. The bbq grill over our fire pit could not be lowered close enough to the fire to cook things well, so bring your own grill. We had to drive to get to trailheads and boating opportunities. Overall, the campground was nice and we enjoyed our stay.

We stay at Minersville every year and love it! It’s close to the lake and although there is no water at the campsite, it is still our favorite place. The sites are big with plenty of parking area and tent spots. They are clean and the bear proof lockers fit tons of food. The bathrooms have running water.

Very nice campground with sites that lead right down to the lake. Also has a spigot for water for drinking and cooking and a bathroom with flush toilets and running water. It can be hard to find a campsite with showers, but the nearby Bushytail campground had great showers we could use. It said coin operated, but was free for use. Would definitely go back
