There was only one loop in the whole campground that had water for filling an rv. Otherwise I loved my spot in the D loop!

We had a great time with grandkids at Chapman Reservoir. There were many people on the lake on paddleboards and inflatable boats, but there was room for everyone. The park staff was very friendly and the restrooms were very, very clean. We'll be back!

What a beautiful place ! We were greeted at the entrance by the funniest Marmot I named Gunther who likes to lay in the road…a red Fox made visits by our campsite 2-3 times a day. We saw Eagles on the way up. We spent 4 nights and could not have been more pleased. Very quiet, well kept and gorgeous views and places to walk. Some sites do not have great tent sites if you have an 8 person tent or bigger. Some are not level what so ever. Sites near the lake were walked through by other campers and not private We stayed up on the hill in the first section and we loved it and will def be back. This campground is huge and there are many great and more private sites to choose from Our camp
Host Patty was awesome. These were the cleanest vault toilets and bathrooms I have ever seen ! If you need more wood ( the camp
Hosts were out one day ) or forgot butter or alcohol or something, there is a tiny country store about 15-20 mins away in Meredith. There’s an open sign in the window so keep watch or you’ll miss it! and the owner was awesome. If Can’t wait to come back!
