This was our first time camping at Island View with a new camper. Sites were well marked and spaced out enough that we didn't feel like we were too close to other campers. Nice area--easy to pull in and out of.

Been camping here for 20 years! Every summer we have a Friends and Family reunion! Love Island View! The sites we love are in M and F. Beautiful views of the lake! I wish there was a small beach at the campsites so we didn't have to drive to the main beach, tho!

Many sites had standing water upon our arrival even though it hadn’t rained in recent times. I had to stand in a puddle to connect to electric.
The sites were the largest I’ve seen in the region.
There were no maps available at the un-staffed checkin building and finding a site after dark was the worst experience I’ve had in 40 years of camping.
The restrooms were clean, but inadequate in number compared to the number of sites. At least half of the bathrooms didn’t have shower facilities.
The campground was quieter than I expected for being at or near capacity.
There were very few sources for refilling water tanks.
Very few sites had lake access, although many had lake views.

Great location and lake. Nice facilities. Don't know what the problem was but July 5-6 there was no one maintaining the bathrooms. No TP, and no cleaning Several complaints were registered and they were taken care of the next day. Corps parks are our first pick for camping.
