Our spots #35 & 36 are very pretty but the fire pits were very full!

We enjoyed our time at Cottonwood Point. We hiked, biked and fished. Shower facilities were clean.

I was pleasantly surprised at my stay on Marion lake Cottonwood Point. I had a campsite right by the water with absolutely beautiful sunsets. The area was really quite and checking in was a breeze. I had full hookups for my rig. Had a grill and a fire pit at the site and was reasonably priced. I would recommend this camping area and will definitely return.

We have stayed in several Corp of Engineers Campgrounds and have always been so pleased with overall condition of campgrounds. However, Cottonwood Point was a very big disappointment. The awning over the picnic table was covered in spider webs on the underside along with wasp nests, we battled them when setting at the table; the fire pit was almost full of ashes with burnt beer cans and other partially burned trash. My husband cleaned it out so we could have a campfire. The electrical post was so covered in spider webs and bugs that we sprayed and cleaned it off before ever hooking up. The weeds were so close to the edge of the campsite that my husband came home with poison ivy. We asked gate attendant about who keeps it clean he said third party contractor. We were very disappointed that not only did we pay to stay in a unkept site but are tax dollars are being paid to some entity that is not doing their job. It was very evident this site had not been cleaned for quite some time. My sister stayed in the site beside us and theirs was just as bad.

Nice clean campground, lots of space between sites. Each site had a nice covered picnic table. Only criticism: we were camping with four other families and two them had difficulty maneuvering into the site because of the way the site was designed. Both of the sites mentioned needed another 90 degree turn once you had backed 90 degrees off the main road.

We stayed over Labor Day weekend. The park was full, but the sites are far enough apart, it doesn’t feel that way. Great place to camp and the price is right. Stayed before and will stay again.
