We have camped here many times and Sweetwater never disappoints. The sites are large, paved and level. Canton has lots to offer for shopping and restaurants, but we just enjoy being in the lake, which can be seen from nearly every site. We only wish it was open all year.

Site 36 was wonderful. Easy access to the water, except for all of the driftwood stacked up along the shore making it impossible to get to the water.

Nice enough campground but pretty tight, hilly and difficult to get to level.
Pretty though. We only stayed one very windy night.

Check-in: Friendly, full of tips, answered my questions/ helpful.
Campsite: Better than expected from photos. Level for rooftop tents or car camping with room on the sides. Enough space between campsites. Good view of the lake. Some noise from pickup trucks coming and going from their sites, and boat noise - - both mild and tolerable.
Bathrooms: No hand soap or paper towels; hand dryer was old and icky; floors never dried because of humidity levels in the area; made for soggy toilet paper and toilet seats. Showers are dated and needed a little bit of maintenance but worked for a hot shower to get clean; unless you found yourself in the stall that flooded (thank goodness I was warned before I experienced that).
Atmosphere: Mostly campers were polite and respected quiet hours until the last night there was a rowdy group until 1am. Lots of families/ kids riding bikes around. Friendly campers overall. Gates are locked overnight, so I generally felt safe walking around and didn't worry about my stuff too much. Park staff or sheriff's were seen patrolling.
Internet: Starlink worked with some interruptions, which will be more prevalent once the leaves fill in.

Campground was very nice in most respects. Site was easy to get into, but puling out requires care as the exit is narrow and you must be careful not to put the camper's wheels the ditch. We pull a 42 feet fifth wheel. Shorter units would be OK.

Went for a long weekend camping trip. The host checking us in were very friendly and courteous. The park was very clean, including the restrooms.
