Cozy small campground in the tall pine trees with lots of shade and easy access to the lake. Camp host was wonderful and kept the grounds and the bathrooms sparkling clean. Firewood was available to purchase with the Camp host. We would return again.

Loved this camp area. The camp host was excellent. There was some road noise from ATVs and motorcycles from the main road through the trees. Nice trails to just hike along the lake area. The bathrooms needed to have chemical down them to reduce the odor on a couple of the days. We had really nice weather during the 4 days we were there.

Great in and out of site, new tables and site updates are nice, one out house could have been cleaner. Was great time only 2 other campers. We closed the campground for the first time ever.

Great pull through site. Very level and pretty secluded. It is close to the highway so there is some noise but overall a great site. We will be staying here again.

The campground itself was very clean and well laid out, with great access to Henry's Fork. The camp hosts were polite and professional. The only downside was the road noise from the Yale/Kilgore road, which had a noticeable change from years past.

Great campsite, and clean bathrooms. The tent pad was just large enough for our eight-man tent. I only wish we would have known how busy and loud the road leading to Mccrea Campground was, which was only about 50 yards from our csmpsite

Relatively loud being in proximity to main road. Pretty strict campground rules that are enforced. But overall, very pretty and some of the spots at the back of camp are beautiful. It’s nice. I would go back. Just prefer less restrictive spots.
