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 Cove is very quiet and clean. Super easy to get in and out and close to all of the lake activity. We will no doubt be back in the future.

The process for obtaining/ reserving a campsite is onerous and difficult. The campsite was beautiful, with amazing bird life and fireflies. The ambience was quiet and respectful. Bathrooms were clean and stocked.

Weather was great, water is less than desirable for being in it.

Alright, park. Don’t recommend being close to water, the wind is wicked. If it’s gonna be windy, definitely get a spot close to the wall.

Second time at this park. It is great. Clean, great water pressure and new electric islands.

Had an amazing weekend. I would suggest that the gate post (brown) across the road from lot 39 be removed because it has no function anymore or paint it bright orange. We almost hit it trying to get into our lot. It blends into the background too well. Thanks.
