Great campground. Very clean and well kept. Nice large sites and plenty of room in between. Fire rings, grills and picnic tables are in excellent condition. This is a beautiful area. There are very nice walking and bike paths. The beaches are large, clean and very nice. I would stay there again and I would recommend this park highly. A great place to take your family.

The campsite was beautiful. There is lots of room between sites. Nice pad, full hookup with water and electric. We were on the water with a nice view through the trees. We were able to watch birds on the water as well as deer in the woods. Since we are I a pop up without a bathroom, my only complaint was the restroom and showers. Our bathroom was old, dated and smelled. There was no soap or sanitizer to wash yours hands. The sink was so tiny. There was no shower facility in our loop so you had to drive to take a shower.

Nice, clean campground. Exceptional bike/walking trail through the entire Rend Lake area. Nice facilities. Mens shower house in Redbud was closed but others withing the complex were available. Friendly hosts.

We love the parks around Rend Lake. This spot on the water was really nice. Slope was a little more than I hoped for but actually I did not watch close on the web site. The gravel pad remained wet. We will see you again.
