Beautiful, quiet lakeside campground! Site#A42 had a beautiful view, but was very steep. Had to 'parallel park' our camper in the site in order to level it. Will definitely stay again!

We enjoy Farnum Creek and the camp hosts are great. We do hope that the Corp of Engineers spend some time and money to level out the sites and make it more user friendly. Shower houses are nice. Some of the electrical boxes need updating. We understand that this area was flooded last year, but there is lots to do to get it back to a top-notch campground.

Sites were extremely unlevel, and they would not allow you to change sites, I have pictures of mine and a couple others that were close to unsafe. Camp host was rude to put it nicely. Reserved slips were placed almost a week early for sites, placed on Sunday when the next reservation wasn't until Friday or later. This made a number of potential walk-in guests to leave and a few very vocal about them placing the slips. The hosts did not enforce the vehicle numbers or parking of boats in the grass or so close to the road that it was difficult to navigate.
The shower and restroom facilities need repaired and updated, again almost to the point of unusable.
I will not return to this campground ever!

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- Visitor hours are limited and end at a specified time.
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
