We have been enjoying this special place for over 30 years. But last stay was awful in terms of how the hosts treated us. We had a 20 ft trailer for husband and I and son had a tent camper on his truck. We hooked trailer up to water and electrical. Son had no water hook up and has no toilet in tent camper. He has medical issue and needs electrical connection at night for machine so he connected to our trailer on first night.. We had one tent for widow who camped with us (total of 4 people) and drift boat on trailer pulled to outside of our parking area. Host said we were not abiding by the "rules" (one RV and one tent per site). Yet we saw 3 other sites with 2-4 tents, one site with 5 ATV's parked on grass, etc, Signage in (Immaculate) outhouses says NO glass containers on beach, yet the host and his guest were at water's edge with bottles of beer on July 3rd. It seems the hosts impose exert authority with some guests and are more accommodating with others.
Host said they would throw us out if we reserve one site for the 3 of us (trailer and tent camper)... we were told we have to reserve 2 sites.

Clean bathrooms and grounds.
Helpful hosts! They went above and beyond
We return once or twice a year. It’s our favorite place to call home when we are fishing the “Joe”

It's was a bad campground for tents. If you had an RV or some sort of indoor glamping setup it might not have been bad. The only plus was running water, power, a decent parkway and a picnic table.

My site was in the direct path of headlights from the highway. At 3am, constant logging trucks and dump trucks started screaming down the road every 15 minutes. I was unable to sleep at all the entire night. The only waterfront access was a boat ramp or a small path that led directly to the water with no beach of any kind.

Been going to Huck for years; ALWAYS 5 stars, til this time. After having suffered elect damage from its New electrical system installed last summer, we now have a new RV Circuit Analyzer to assess the plug in BEFORE plugging in, New Batteries and a serviced Converter. Do Not trust the power box; bring an analyzer so your ‘after camp’ days wont be spent in camper and battery service/replacement. All else about Huck remains Stellar!
