Everything was good except the fish cleaning station is GONE! It's VERY inconvenient to have to tailgate clean fish or drive all the way to the Lone Point station on poor roads.

The sites are nice being paved. They are narrow sites. We have 3 slides so you have to try to stay to one side and be able to get your slides out. So picnic table had to be pushed to back of the site. Not much of a fire pit. Site was right across from the restrooms.

Nice campground. Grandchildren enjoyed the playground, fishing and the beach. The campsite was nice and could get what we needed at the small store just outside the campground. We had a great time at Coon Creek campground.

This campsite was beautiful, went right down to the water and I was able to swim whenever I wanted. I was there for a week and it was so quiet and peaceful, it was perfect! Best vacation ever!!!

The hosts are very nice and helpful at check in. The camp ground is very clean overall and it’s V great to have flush toilets that are kept CLEAN. This is a popular place to launch boats but the launch site is away from the campgrounds. Overall, we would definitely go back.

Awesome campground. Clean. Many large private sites. Gate attendants are typically grouchy.
