Tuttle Creek Cove offers a beautiful campground with stunning lake views, clean facilities, and friendly staff, making for an enjoyable stay. Many campers appreciated the spacious, well-maintained sites, and the peaceful atmosphere, ideal for relaxation and outdoor activities. However, some sites have access and leveling issues, and cell reception can be poor, but overall, visitors found it a great location close to Manhattan with plenty of natural beauty.

Had a beautiful full view of the lake, park was very clean and well kept. Quiet, reasonable rate, especially with the life time senior pass. Definitely on my favorite list.

Tuttle Creek Cove campground is an amazingly well planned and laid out property. The sites are beautifully landscaped and well maintained. We would definitely recommend a stop here if you are in the area.

Campground is clean and tidy. Great sites with beautiful views. The other places we stay have a swim beach very close and this one doesn’t. Also the sites could be a little better leveled out so we didn’t have to use so many leveling blocks on one side of the rv. Other than those 2 things, it’s a great place.

We enjoyed our stay at this site. The sites are huge and well kept. The grass was freshly mowed. Not a lot of ticks. It was a quiet area with larger expensive campers. Things to note: While this site is lakefront, there’s no access to the water from it as the lake is about 50 feet down a cliff. Additionally, you can’t see the water when you’re sitting at your campsite. There’s also no dumpsters near the campsites. The closest is a the boat dock.
