Hillsboro Cove is our favorite local get-a-way with large, quiet RV spaces, some with waterfront. Restrooms and showers are always clean. Easy water access for boats, kayaks, canoes. The hosts are friendly and helpful.

Nice sites near the lake.
Only bad thing was both restrooms were out of order. Can’t understand how BOTH can be out of order at the same time.

couldn't find the campground, no signage from the direction we came, it was also dark. Ended up staying at cottonwood creek which I would give 5 stars if asked.
