Nice location. Lots of campsites only have electric, no water or sewer. There is a sewer dump on the way out.

Decided to spend a couple of days somewhere I've never been before and so glad I did! Got here right before the Labor Day holiday rush. Hardly anyone here until Friday afternoon and then it filled up. I was at site #44 and I believe it is the best spot around. Great views of the water, right around the bend from the swimming beach, great wind blocking, and large level site.

We really enjoy camping at Hillsboro Cove, and occasionally at Cottonwood also, the registration workers are very nice and friendly, just like the area. Would also like maybe being a volunteer to help keep it the property clean. Thank you

Although, we were there when it was pretty much empty due to cold weather. The people running it were super friendly and helpful! It was very clean. The shower house was cold so that could be improved on but it was clean. Loved that the water was constant on while you showered instead of having to keep pushing a button in to get water. Would definitely love to visit again in warmer weather!
