The campground was nice enough, but it was quite a ways outside of town, along a bumpy dirt road that we didn't expect.

Our family had a great time split between 3 camp sites. Having the lake view was wonderful, and we even brought a boat to the dock. The hike down to the private dock area was a little too steep for the 88 year old senior in our group, but the rest of us managed just fine. This is definitely a CDA Lake campground we will return to!

My family and I try to come each year from VA to stay at Bell Bay. Each year we get a different host and each time they have been very nice and helpful. This year the host went of of his way, brought us our bought fire wood and help us with our broken down truck we are so grateful. Besides that the lake isn't too far for all of us to enjoy our floating time, keep in mind it is very steep so could be hard to get done for some. We always have crafts, games and water toys to entertain our family.

Great spot overlooking the lake. It was very windy but that's fine! The sites were clean and so were the outhouses.
