Beautiful well cared for campground. The host/volunteer/staff were helpful and professional. The restroom was cleaned and sanitized daily. Plenty of things to do to keep occupied.

Very nice campground. A little busy with all the electric scooters riding everywhere, mostly kids going pretty fast. Nice views of the lake and easy access to the boat ramp.

This is a top notch campground. Easy access for my 5th wheel, nice beach, great fishing. During busy lake traffic it may be better to use the public boat ramp rather than the campground ramp. It was very difficult to hold the boat at the dock in all of the waves. The public ramp is much more protected.

We stayed at Sandy Beach for three days. When I made our reservations all the sites but this one were shown as unavailable yet when we arrived only a few were actually occupied. Most remained empty for the three days we were there. The rules very clearly state if you are not there for the first night of your reservation, your reservation is forfeited yet when I checked on line these sites never open up. That stinks! So as for the campground it is very nice. The beach is super nice and was completely empty most of the time we were there. The one thing I really had a problem with was the red ants. Our campsite had a huge nest of them and I was bit by them twice. I noticed lots of red ant nests in the campground so it wasn't just our site.

Our 6th time camping here and we drive 175 miles to get there. One of our favorite places. Very clean and well maintained. Hosts and Rangers go out of their way to make everyone happy and at $10. A night with the lifetime pass it’s cheaper than living in our house! There is even a Devonian era fossil field that was uncovered by a flood not so many years ago that proves that this was once an inland ocean but is now a campground!
