I love this campground. Always clean, sites arent to close, level spots are easy to get set up in.

The electrical outlets in some areas need replacing. In particular, the outlets at W84 and W83 are damaged, frame bent and should clearly be replaced.

Water should be added to the rest of West Overlook sites that do not yet have it.

Personnel have been great.

Really enjoy camping there but electrical outlets scare us.

Love camping at West Overlook. There is direct access to the water and you can also walk to Linder Point where you can get on hiking trails. The only negative is that the showers must have some sort of water filter that makes the flow VERY weak, more like a dribble.

Best camping of the summer! Just across from the restrooms (really great ones I should add!), yet my spot was somewhat isolated and quiet. The weather was perfect! We saw lots of hummingbirds and our favorite groundhog. Family took us out on the Lake in their pontoon, and we had awesome food around the campfire. We even got in an 18 mi bike ride in and around IC/Coralville!
