A nice site looking over the water. Good shade. The site has a moderate side slope of 3 inches. Be careful with children, the back drops off sharply to the water.

You will love it at Coon Creak, very nice beach at the camp site and also Shelbyville very close with a big beach. oat rentals near by. Lots of good food near by. A little store called castaways right as you pull into the camp ground.

The campsite was very nice and well maintained. The site we chose is large and there was space between us and the neighbors.
The site is shaded with mature trees. I used our shower so I can’t comment on the shower house.

Site 113 is a nice large pull through site and FHU. No view of the lake but very relaxing. It needed mowing and was finally mowed our 2nd to last day there

I agree with other campers that this campground is very well maintained. In particular, the showers and restrooms are in great condition. Kudos to the crew. I loved that the campground is surrounded by trees providing much needed shade for those long summer days.
My campsite had great views of the sunrise and of the lake. The nearby sites are in close proximity to each other. Fortunately, fellow campers were respectful of the quiet hours. Another plus of this site is the 3/4 mile Coon Creek Nature Trail, which was nice to jog in the mornings.
The only negatives are the noise from the boats and the light fixtures attached to the restroom facilities are extremely bright.

A beautiful park with several camping spots. Clean bathrooms with showers. Full hookups throughout the campgrounds. Great for boating and fishing. Close to shopping and restaurants.
