Clean and quiet campground

We camped at an electrical site and since everything was asphalt, there was not enough room for our tent. It's hard to tell on the pictures how steep the ground is and weather you will be able to use a tent. Would not recommend for tent camping.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The sites were spacious and peaceful. We were at site #43. I prefer full hook ups, but no sites with full hook ups were available when we signed up. Next time, we'll try to reserve our site earlier.

Nice and quiet week even though it was the 4th of July. Bathrooms were very well maintained. Can’t speak for showers though as we used our campers. Site 51 was very level and secluded as it was at the end of the loop.

Unable to get level after several blocks and attempts, slight view of water. RV blocks the view of the road no scenery except woods.

The camp ground utilities worked as expected. Restrooms and showers were clean and good condition. Beach area was closed due to high lake levels. Check-in went smoothly. The Lake Shelbyville Visitor Center was nice. We enjoyed viewing wildlife in campground, Eagle Creek SP and Wolf Creek SP.

A bit run down but great for the price. Lots to do, although beach was closed due to flooding. Clean bathrooms. Trash situation is net great, with the only dumpsters WAY far away from the campsites.

First time back here in over 45 years. This was the family destination every summer when I was a child; and it was always on my bucket list to return. My recollections and memories were reawakened during my recent return/stay and my visit did not disappoint. Already planning my next visit. Wonderful place to relax
