Dam Site

Nice Shelter.

Nice and easy to get to. Right by Vault Restroom.

Nice Shelter. Only 2 outlets & they have a hard time handling crock pots. Two biggest complaints are that the Campfire Ring is no longer there and the playground is no longer across from the shelter.

Ranger was very helpful in guiding us to camp site. Due to high water, we were the only RV in the park.

New Strawn and Burlington were great places to visit/eat.

Hope to return in the future.

Happy to get a spot for Labor Day weekend! The site was nice, however we were missing a picnic table. After the place cleared out on Monday we noticed a site at the other end had two (rude!!). Still I’d have rated higher if not for the multiple power outages throughout Saturday afternoon & evening. Too bad maintenance wasn’t on call on a busy holiday weekend. A couple of bigger rigs left out of frustration and that seemed to help, but that’s a shame.

LOVE our time at John Redmond!

I came here sight unseen and not knowing the terrain or elevation. The pictures on the web makes it look like the terrain is level. I got to the site I picked from the web only to find out that the incline for my rig was not going to work. I called Recreation.gov to see if I could get another site. They provided another sight for me but for only 3 days not 6. I said I would take it. I went to that site and it was not going to work. I got a call from the Corp. of Engineers office, and they said there is a site on the east side that is level and I could stay there for 3 days. I went over there, and it was much better. I was almost all set up, when the park ranger came over and told me about a site at the Dam Site Park and it would be available for the 6 days that I had originally planned. I went over there, got set up, and the park ranger, Bradley, came over to make sure I was happy and was going to stay. Bradley was the nicest park ranger I have met. I appreciated his concern. I found that the Dam Site Park was just beautiful. I had a great few of the reservoir and it was so peaceful. There was a lot of people fishing. It is great for taking long walks. I rode my bike all around the different parks in the area. I recommend this place. The Recreation.gov and the Corp. of Engineers (Taylor) were so kind and understanding of my needs. God bless them all for being there to help a single woman traveling by herself.

The site is nice, it has shade and is peaceful and quiet.

Clean and simple

good basic site
