Cabins at Hardin Ridge (we stayed in Cabin 2) were in a great spot on the lake and secluded from other campsites. Everything was very clean, grounds and amenities were well cared for. Unfortunately the beach was closed (though there seems to be nowhere online you can find this information before arriving). Staff was hard to reach throughout our stay, but it was a great escape otherwise!

We stay at Hardin Ridge about every two weeks and last time there was a severe storm that took down trees and power poles all over the area. We expected to be turned away but the friendly team of hosts had worked hard to clear the roadway and campsites of limbs and debris. We got to enjoy another weekend at camp, hats off to the team at Hardin!!!

We love the campground. We went on a holiday weekend and there were no activities going on or anything extra. Also, when you make the reservation, we indicated that we would have 2 cars. But, our second car was charged $8 each night. That was irritating since we already indicated this on the reservation. If you are going to charge extra, then don’t ask how many cars will be there.

I love this location. Convenient with very private sites many of which are very near the water.
