What Guests Are Saying

Lake Shore Group Camp is a beautiful and well-maintained facility, ideal for families and scouting groups, with helpful campground hosts. While visitors have generally had great experiences, some concerns were raised about exposed electrical connections in the showers and the need for better shower amenities. Additionally, it is advised not to leave belongings overnight due to the risk of them going missing.

The place needs some maintnenance. It's beautiful but the things there need maintaining. The spigot blasts air, the smoke grates need replacing, none of the lantern hangers have hooks anymore

I've been coming here for several years now. It started at $50/night. It is now $100/night but I don't know what the money is being used for. Trash cans in both bathrooms were full upon check-in. Nobody ever came to empty them. Amenities have never been kept up, even now that the fee has doubled. Eg. 2 of the 3 lantern hangers have been broken for years now, the smoker grate has been deteriorated beyond use for years now. There is nowhere to hang items in the showers nor shelves to put things on. It's a beautiful spot, but please do some upkeep and improvements to the shower areas.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
