Cottonwood Point

Electric quit at my site. Tried multiple things and discovered breaker didn’t work right. Called corp office and 25” later ranger and another fixed breaker quickly and electricity worked

We liked the size of the camping Lots so that there was some separation between us and our neighbors rather than feeling like we're on top of each other. Also even over a holiday weekend it was not particularly noisy and we appreciated that and thirdly it was nice to camp in a campground where there wasn't a street light in every corner and to actually see the stars rightly.

Need more park ranger presence- especially on big weekends like Labor Day.
Park needs the following:
1) Enforced rules- dogs on leashes, cars/boats off grass areas, Off road devices told to stay home,
2) general things to fix - fences around trash areas fixed, campsite numbers replaced or fixed, site #162 and #164 drive needs widened, fix bath/shower house across from group site #1, make the water visible in the new area - campsites in the 150s to 130s
Thankful for:
1) Mowed grass especially in the larger areas - makes the whole park more appealing and attractive (don’t let it get out of control please)
2) restroom/ shower crews keep things clean - a BIG THANK You.
3) the volunteers they do have are appreciated

Love the park. Glad the bath house was open this time

The park has a neglected feel. We replaced a broken rotten board on the work bench by the table in site 162. The driveway is all grass over the rock. The treadle needs work it is hard to back into. New more water access at sites in the expansion area. It was mowed and I like to see the large public areas were mowed, behind Group site 1. Miss seeing volunteers and talking to rangers. They used to stop by but we only saw them once and we were there 7 days! Had trouble with dogs off leash had to call sheriff for help. An OTV came thru from the north end by site 165 (local person I would say). The bath house by Group 1 needs repaired! The crew that cleans the bathhouses does an excellent job! I just hate to see it going down hill several canopies are rotting in the expansion area.

Nice large open site, but it is far from level, that it took unhooking and hooking back up twice to get my from supports short enough to level my RV. A lot of the sites seem to have this issue at Marion Reservoir. We have camped at several other lakes around the state, and several of these have almost completely level campsites, which is easier to set up, and easier to walk around the site during the stay, and a lot safer for elderly.

Very friendly people. Beautiful place to camp.

This is one of our favorite coves to camp in when we camp with family and the grandkids. We were her in May and July and again in September. The electric box has been in need of repair every time. We have reported it every time and it has yet to be fixed. This is our favorite reservoir in Kansas to camp at, it would be so nice if the utilities could be better taken care of.

Everything was good except the shower house and restrooms!!! The shower for handicapped people which is the only shower that works !! The light won’t stay on it has a short or something in it !! I don’t really appreciate having to take a shower in the dark . Don’t know who to contact to get it fixed ??

Haven't been to Marion for years. We'll be back (when it's a little cooler). TV reception poor to almost zero but that's not the parks problem.
