The only draw back with Shaffer Heard is the internet service. Other than that it is a beautiful and peaceful place to stay.

Love the spot other the WiFi availability due to signal issues from the trees

First, let me say that the campsite itself was more than adequate. Very pleased with it and the shade that it provided. Double wide site that gives plenty of room for the camper and to park the vehicle. There is enough space to comfortably Park a second vehicle there.
My complaint is not with the site but with the park policy of requiring a three night stay your reservation is tied to Friday or Saturday night. We were traveling from out of state and having to pay for three nights when we only needed one or two, like Thursday and Friday night did not seem appropriate. I would think the corps of engineer should look at their policy for people who are traveling or live more than 150 mi or so from the campsite. However, we did enjoy our stay there even though we had to pay for a Saturday night that we were unable to use. My Verizon cell service was almost non-existent at this site. AT&T service was fine. Thanks!

We have camped at this campground several times, and it never gets old.

Need to have more things to play on at the playground and possibly have another playground in a different area. Also, people are speeding through areas and children are darting out in the road and in bikes. Adults need to slow down and be cautious.
