Undoubtedly one of the best of COE parks, and our favorite, this years visit was a little disappointing as the main restroom/shower facilities was closed for renovation. With five months to complete the project we have to wonder why it is still incomplete near the end of April (sixth month!). Otherwise, GREAT!!!

The bath house was closed so for part of my family staying near it they had NO access to a restroom or shower without walking a good distance or driving !! This is crazy. Work should have been completed before the campground opened this season. Also the grounds are NOT well kept any longer. Mowing is spotty and over all maintenance is lacking. This facility is no longer consistent with the upkeep that it was always known for having. Very sad !!!! The state should be ashamed.

The host are great especially Jim & Nancy. The thing that is HORRIBLE is that one of the three bath houses is still NOT OPEN. It’s a brand new building that looks 95% done. We have been there twice in the past 4 weeks and there is NO ONE even working to get this building open.

Excellent site and only problem I face is with electric port which is bit far so couldn’t use it.. if anyone plan to use better take an extension cord at least 15 to 25 feet
Overall experience was good and will plan to book again soon

Very quiet, nice setups and plenty of room to explore. Caught a few spotted bad kayaking near our campsite. Close to stores and Hammond Fishing Supply too!!

Great campground, I wish they would have benches in each of the shower stalls, and not just the handicap ones. We were on site 2 and we were able to keep our small dingy on the shoreline, yet still have shade from a few trees. Every site has a view! Wonderful!

Had a wonderful experience on site 39 this time around at baldridge campground. Beautiful sunny weather and cool evenings was perfect. We did have a small misshap on the last day with the 30 amp hookup when the electric in our camper started flickering on and off. Checked the outside breaker and it was loose in the slot. Luckily I did have a 15 amp to a 30 amp converter to get us through another day. We will be back soon.
