Nice location with spectacular view. Be prepared for ducks to visit near your campsite :). Bathrooms were clean and within a reasonable walking distance.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. We just did not remember how windy it gets..My grandfather helped build the Lake, as kids spent many times fishing and camping at various campgrounds around the lake. Sure, is Beautiful though.

The site we had (#32) was absolutely great! Facing the lake and very shady, which is important, especially to my husband. The pad was very wide, plenty of room for our table, chairs, play yard for our dogs. The new showers are wonderful, they are the same we have when we visit Rend Lake, South Marcum.

I found the campground hosts to be very friendly and accommodating. Given the location of the campground, it is suggested that campers ensure they've packed everything they need as there are no local stores or gas stations near the campground.

I will be back! This sight was perfect. Laying in bed, seated at couch and dinette, I could see water. Leveling was a breeze. Picnic table was older, but we used our own table and chairs. Camp hosts were great. Facility was clean.

Beautiful campground with lovely views of the lake. Only 2 complaints: grass was very high and one night our neighbors were very noisy. Other than that, had a wonderful weekend.
