Sad to see such a nice place in decline. Mismanagement, poor or
Lacking help, excuses and certainly campers with no regard or respect for the facilities or others appear to be root cause.
This park has become a dog park with inconsiderate pet owners; dog sh-t on the roads, the side of the roads, in the woods and pathways even in the shower (see pic).
The facilities post “no pets” and yes the signs have been tampered with but expect to see pet owners with their dogs in the bath rooms and showering their dogs in the facilities. Dogs barking on/off all day and night. Dogs off leash. If you call and notify the camp Hosts do not expect much help or reaction.

Expect to find human trash all around. The grass has not been cut but this could be on purpose (getting back to nature?) or just lack of management/personnel.
The inside dump station is closed and the outside dump station is backing up.
Cell service is adequate (T Mobile) and satellite service is sparse as expected due to foliage cover. Most sites are large and separated. The facilities; toilets, showers and laundry is aging and not well maintained.
As you enter the park the two signs read “no alcohol“ and “no guns” they need to add “no pets and/or pet owners“ as well. As always the users of this park need to chip in to keep this place open and clean. Please get this beautiful place back in order!

One of the best campsites at this very nice campground. Site is right on the lake with total privacy from most directions (just one neighboring site and parking nearby). Campground is well maintained. The only drawback some might have to this site is that the restrooms are a long walk away.

This is a nice, quiet park. Many sites are right on the water and almost all of them have a great view.

The grass was EXTREMELY tall and needed to be cut. It was only cut in small areas near the camper. Bolding Mill is too nice of a camp ground for this to be happening.

We haven't been to Bolding Mill for several years since we sold our last camper. We began camping again in the past year.
We notice the lack of maintenance such as bath house cleanliness, campsite preparedness, grounds maintenance such as drainage openings being clogged causing more erosion. Erosion is a huge problem! Some of the sites have mud covering large portions of the graveled areas.
I also realize that y'all want to keep costs down in order to offer lowest rates possible.
I believe users would be willing to pay a little more to see some of these issues addressed!
Or maybe you would like to address them, but cannot find help.
Thank you!
