We always love camping at Sugar Bottom! Beautiful campground with plenty to do right there but so much more in the nearby towns. Love the multiple playgrounds, beach, and bike trails. They also have great ranger programming!

Had an issue with loud disrespectful and verbally abusive site neighbors. The five accompanying children were toddlers in diapers to a nine year boy who also was verbally abusive to the toddlers. The campground was mostly empty and all we were requesting was to move to an other site. This was our last night at this campground. Our respectful request was answered with aggression and window slammed in our face. We were then yelled at through the window and were told to “get another site”. We feel that the campground host at the entrance gate did not properly handle the situation and could use some schooling on how to handle delicate situations. Thanks for listening, we love the Corp of Engineers.

We’ve been going to Sugar Bottom for years. We’ve been increasing disappointed in the beach area.
The geese have taken over and there is zero cleanup being done. The beach isn’t raked and makes me not want to go back

Great grounds and facilities. Restrooms and showers are clean and well maintained. Easy check-in process. Will definitely be back when we can stay longer.

The campgrounds are wonderful, right on the river and many other great fishing spot nearby.
Only suggestions I have are, there needs to be water hookups and sewer hookups at more campsites if there aren’t any available at all, and getting WIFI for the smart tvs and for people who have to do work on laptops while on a camping trip. The cell service is very limited for many places so WIFI would help greatly.
