What Guests Are Saying

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.

Tuttle Creek was our first stop in a new RV. The layout of the campsites made it easy to find and back in no problem. Most spaces have a view of the lake. The upper level has a play ground for elementary age kids. We will definitely go back!

Sites 23 and 24 at Tuttle Creek Cove are not very desirable. Plenty of shade but getting our campers level was near impossible. We will not be camping in those 2 sites again. Everything else was fine

We had a nice, level, shady site. Grass was mowed, however, a few sites still had a lot of weeds. Nice and close to Manhattan for any needs.

Had no issues with the campsite #1. Nice shade and level. Only issue we had was there was no dock by the boat ramp. Didn’t sound like this would be resolved anytime soon.

Nice park for a short camping stay. Showers need maintenance and is quite a steep walk to get there. Campsites are fairly large and somewhat level. Close to town for supplies.
