Very scenic campground which is well maintained. Staff at the gate/office were friendly and helpful. Sites are generally very spread out. Be advised that many of the sites are narrow and steep — we asked to be moved from the site we originally reserved because of this. Would come back again!

Our fifth trip to R Shaefer Heard. Great campground. The staff on duty always does a great job. AT&T cell service was good. We like to camp Sunday-Thursday to avoid the crowds. We like the park being open year around. One note be sure and check your camper length to make sure it will fit on your selected site. Saw one camper this trip that had to relocate. Many of the sites in this park have a more than normal steep angle that can prevent your rig going on a site. Ours is only a 25 ft. no problems.

This particular campground was perfect for us and our dogs. Almost completely shaded and near the rest room. The shower house was a little farther but an easy walk from the campsite. Not too far from the lake. We had a wonderful time enjoying the scenic views, the peaceful silence of nature, and the never ending walking paths to discover the park. We will be back!

This is a beautiful campground way above what we needed for just a quick overnight. The campsites are wide with paved parking pad for our 30' travel trailer with plenty of room. There is also a tent pad at each site. The lake is beautiful but the level was low due to dam repairs. Pull throughs were available but we like spot 110 so just backed in easily.
We were there for 18 hours and were invaded by small black ants which we saw mentioned by others.

We are always pleased with our stay(s) at this campground. Not once have we been disappointed. Sites 8 and 7 are spectacular.

This is a favorite campground because it is close to home and allows us to have quick little get aways. The hosts are always friendly and helpful, bathrooms are usually clean and the sites are huge.
