I rated it Very Good instead of excellent, because it rained while we were there, and because of recent construction it left the roadways muddy.

Great to have access again after the campground renovation work. The new bathroom/showers are fantastic. As always the campground is one of our favorite places to stay and we always find the staff friendly and helpful.

needs more restrooms. shower is combined in restroom and no way to use it when someone takes shower. Fish cleaning station not in operation. Lots could use some small gravel on them the large rocks are not very friendly on carpets or feet. Closed all summer only improvements was new restroom shower combinations which cut back on number of toilets that can be used. When full hard to find empty restroom when needed.

Our site was good. I wish the Corp would save one area at Coon Creek and Lithia Springs, to a first come first serve. Your locals are missing out of camping at a Corp of Engineers campground and having to camp elsewhere. Several people do not know when they get a weekend off until the last minute and are unable to camp because all week-ends are taken and are unable to camp during the week.

Great campground. The only bad part is the new bathroom building by us, the outside lights at night were way to bright for any star gazing if your site was near there and also the automatic exhaust fans sounded like small jet engines. Whenever someone entered they would turn on.

This is the first time we camped at a park where no one was on the gate when we came in and after finding a site we were not permitted to set up until we had registered. We arrived about 3pm. We had no internet to use and only our cell phones which we were unable to use. We called the phone number listed and after about 20 minutes waiting were disconnected. We called a second time and after another 20 minutes a polite gentleman answered the phone and we were able to make our reservation. We were able to hook up our electric so we could run our air, but since the fee both did not open until 5 ( we have a motorhome) I had to walk to the booth (with difficulty I am 77)to pick up our registration tags. I am going to have to take my grandkids with me to get a site registered from now on I guess. I think you should talk to the state parks and see how they do it. Thank you, Everett Allen ( gate attendant for 7 years at Shelbyville )
