We always have a good experience at Hillsboro Cove and have never been disappointed with reserving a spot through recreation .gov

Even though it was inundated earlier this year, it needs some badly needed updating. Very few 50 amp electrical hookups ect.

This was our 2nd year of camping there during the Hillsboro Craft Fair. It was nice to see the lake levels higher this time. Campground clean and quiet.
