Really nice campgrounds with spacious lots, many on the water. Also, a nice beach in campgrounds. My only dislike was are site was not a back-in or pull through. we had a site where we parked parallel to the road with a campsite below us. odd never had a site like that, it was all right but would rather have back in site There are only about10 of these, but pictures are decieving

Camp hosts were friendly. Amenities were all close and accessible. Bathrooms / showers were clean. Boat ramp and beach were nice. All campers were quiet and friendly. Great camping experience.

This was the first time camping at Coon Creek since the upgrades were completed. The campground looked awesome. It was so nice to plug into a 50 amp service without using an adapter. We had a full hook up site for a 10 day stay. It was the first time we stayed that long. It was awesome! It was nice to see that the Ranger patrolled the campground as well. We come every year and will be back!

Lots big shady sites, good spacing between them, some feel very secluded. Facility’s are nice. I suggest looking at sites online when booking. Some can be tricky backing a big trailer in and some are not very level.

Nice quiet place. The facilities were very clean and the laundry was a big plus. The campsites were nice with pretty good shade and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I wish there was better access to the lake if you’re not a boater. In fact, in the three days we stayed there, we barely saw the lake. There’s a little store just outside the entrance that was very convenient. I’d stay there again if I passing through the area but probably wouldn’t make it a destination. You just can’t beat those COE prices, especially with the Senior Pass.
