Site 7 is right across from the camp hosts, two older men that sat and stared directly at us the whole time we were there, and a double site that was super loud with uncontrolled dogs chained to a tree. I would reccomend the campground but not site 7

Campground was not close to the lake. Highway traffic can be heard from campsite. We left early.

This is not a double site as indicated. There is one tent site, which is directly behind the adjacent camp site. There are two picnic tables and no trees.

Very nice campground. A short drive to a really nice, sandy swimming beach. The lodge is also right there if you want to go out to eat.

Granddaughter had a wonderful time kayaking in the lake and reported she was surprised it was warm! Would like to see more available camping spots though

The Good:
Beautiful, small camp ground perfect for a family group. Short drive to Billy Rice Beach which is great for kids. Our kids ride bikes and climbed the small hills bordering the campground. Nice picnic tables, tent sites, and fire rings.
The Bad:
Not great directions. There is no turn off to the forest road listed although you will see the marker. Don’t turn into the Shoreline Lodge and Campground (even though this is an arrow to Warm Lake). Turn into the next left at Lodge Rd. Then the campground will be to right after the curve.
The Ugly:
We reserved four spaces- one space was a double occupancy space. The double occupancy space was directly next to the camp host. As soon as we pulled in the first trailer, the host yelled to stop, we couldn’t pull all the way in or we’d block his satellite dish. So, we couldn’t get the second trailer in all of the way, leaving our vehicle hanging into the street. We paid double the rate for a spot that we had to cram our trailers in so the host could watch his tv. Then right at 5 pm, hottest part of the day, he poured a quarter of a can of lighter fluid and started a huge fire. Our trailers were filled with fumes and heat!

Will we return? Absolutely- this is where our family camped growing up. Great memories in a beautiful small campground. We will stay as far away from the camp host’s site. And never again will we lose money on a “double occupancy” site.

arrived at 4 pm and left my space at 5pm the same day due to a hellish noise coming from 2 power generators of a van. Refund requested but never received. A shit!

Site #3 is awful! The sites are very close together, but far from the bathroom which is down a fairly steep hill. The camp host at the time we were there was a very grumpy old guy that wasn’t friendly at all. Gravel roads and not a lot of shade. The lodge is close, which was nice to be able to get things if needed. Shoreline is a much better loop, so stay there if you can. I would only stay at this campground again if I could be in sites 8, 9, or 10.
