Lake Russell Recreation Area

Campground Hosts were great.
Water spigots need signs.
Departure times have contradictions ( 12?or 2).
Great place to visit.

Great stay, clean bathrooms, and showers. The host were great and helpful. Hope to see both loops open in the future.

I didn’t catch the name of my campground hosts but they were very sweet! I even got a free bundle of wood for helping them out with something. Campers were all friendly and respectful.

I couldn’t attend because a tree was down. I was told I could reschedule and then told that was incorrect information. I will try it again. I was very disappointed thematic I was not refunded for the inconvenience.

Really helpful, warm and welcoming camp hosts! The chorus of spring peepers at night was just lovely

Great campsite on the lake! The Camp hosts are welcoming and helpful.

We reserved a “double site” in advance. We assumed that this meant exactly what it’s name implies...a site for double occupancy by two families. After setting up our campground hosts approached us informing us that double occupancy meant only a hard sided camper and a tent. (We had a 36’ RV, and a 28’ camping trailer and our nylon canvas shelter.). We were two separate families for a total of 4 adults. The hosts told us that this did not conform to the campground rules which were posted on the website. Double occupancy was not for two hard sided vehicles such as ours. Nevertheless they let us stay. They handled the situation very professionally, and did let us stay together on the one site. The rules regarding double occupancy at this campground need to be better delineated so that there is no misunderstanding as to the meaning of a “double site”.

Hosts were excellent

Hosts were great

First timers—reserved site 32 with no way of knowing anything about it other than the picture on the website. Was very disappointed when we arrived —tiny site and neighbors right on top of us. Fortunately there was a larger, better-spaced-out site available, so we switched (to site 39). Site was great—picnic table could use some repair, but we made it work. Bathrooms clean. Campground hosts were very nice and extremely helpful. Hiked the Lake Russell Loop Trail. It is not well marked. We somehow missed a turn and ended up on a different trail (apparently also a horse trail) that took us much further than we had planned to go. It was still a nice hike—just would appreciate better trail markers or more obvious blazes. We enjoyed our weekend and will definitely return.
