We stated for 5 nights at site 152. It required a couple spacers under the tires on the utility side.
I would have given it a 5 but they only mow the grass about every 4 weeks. It was over a foot tall. Ticks everywhere and some fleas.
Had to give our 2 small dogs a bath at least once every day.
Utilities worked great. Access was fine.
Did not use the bath house.

Overhang was breaking down due to rotted wood frame. We had to go get mower from home due to sites not being well kept. Bathrooms were still locked on boat dock side. The one bathroom open had no working light.

Great location! The only thing wrong with it was the grass could have been mowed.

Need more presence by the park ranger.
Too many “rules” I’m seeing not followed by other campers and fear noncompliance will simply encourage more noncompliance - examples:
1) cars/trucks parked on grass - all four wheels - some sights even had like 6 or more vehicles
2) dogs running loose
3) one site had two campers on same site
4) one site in the electric only had a water hose hooked up to the “community” spigot- not even a “y” so others could at least get water.
5) some sites in the “new” section - culverts are narrow and difficult to back into. I have site 162 reserved for Labor Day and it appears to be the worst. We have had friends camp there before and refuse to use that site due to this issue.
6) mowing needs to be done before a big weekend, especially. Tall grass makes it difficult to play yard games.
7) would sure like to see the shore line in the “new” area. I have seen some areas cleared but need to see more.
8) too much poison ivy
9) campsite sign/numbers missing as well as other signage in poor shape
10) FIX the bathroom by the group shelter 1!
With the above we still love Marion Reservoir but fear these things will ruin our beautiful park!

Site was wonderful as always, however, some trimming needs to be done close to the bank. Not able to fish due to high grass/weeds everywhere. Honestly, we really couldn't see the lake
