What Guests Are Saying
Dam Site is a charming campground, conveniently located near main roads and offering beautiful views of the lake. While the area needs improvements in cleanliness and bathroom facilities, many guests appreciated the helpfulness of staff, particularly the COE Maintenance guy. Despite some challenges like trash left by previous visitors and adverse weather conditions, the campground remains a peaceful spot for camping and outdoor activities.

Nice site. Better for tent than camper. Kind of in a whole and difficult to get camper level. Covered table.
Shower house is gross. Hasn't changed since I was a kid. Use Riverside East & West shower houses.

Nice site with covered table. Pull Through parking. Only bad thing is that it is close to where people drive by. Shower house is gross. Go to the River Side East and West to use their shower houses.

Always enjoy our time at John Redmond reservoir. Campsites are well managed. Shower house and toilets are always clean and easily accessible. Park Rangers have a good presence, are available to answer questions, professional and professional!

New to camping. Had a fabulous experience at John Redmond Reservoir. [email protected] was EXTREMELY helpful and accommodating.. Park Rangers were friendly and professional. Spent two weekends there! If it was not end of season… We would have booked two more weekends!

We were in spot 13. The only issue we had was our tent flooded from the rain. We also did not have a firepit. At least it only rained the first night we were there. This would be the only reason I would not recommend spot 13 for tent camping. Or at least dont put your tent directly under the trees for the shade. We moved the tent the next day and dried out just fine. We went fishing on the riverside of the dam and we went over to coffee county lake and had good luck there too.

There was one small problem with our stay. We thought we were going to be back in the second camp ground further from the damn. We booked #12. That site was close to the damn and the lake. The site was great, but it was not the site we thought we were going to get.
