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.

All sites are near the lake, positioned so that most sites' view of the water is not blocked by other RVs. The sites look new, are spacious and have electricity and water. Various sites are high overlooks or nearer the lake level. Dump station is available near exit. Roads are nicely paved and good for bike riding, but steep hills. Host came to each site to warn of impending storm and tell where we might seek shelter. A new campground to me, but I will return. It is only a few minutes from Manhattan, home of Kansas State University and its Aggieville for some entertainment and good places to eat.

Nice big sites most of them are level. Super close to Manhattan so that’s fun to go into town and eat. We’ve been on the lake only once-looking forward to going back.

This is a great campground. Proximity to Manhattan is a big plus for attending KSU activities, etc. We have stayed here one other time and preferred that site (36) better. Sites 10 and 11 are very close together and incredibly unlevel front to back. No trees which is okay for fall camping unless the wind is gale force, which it was on our stay. 50 amp power and water in every site is a big plus. Some sites are very shaded, use a satellite view when reserving. This is a beautiful lake, very heavily wooded and hilly. We would absolutely stay again, perhaps in a different site. Verizon signal excellent. OTA TV excellent also.
