Hillsboro Cove is our favorite place to go. We have camping sites that are closer to home, but it's worth the extra drive. Spacious spots, lots of open area to walk our fur-baby and easy access to the water. We always enjoy the quick trip in to Hillsboro for a treat at Sonic.

Super quiet with Great Lake views. The camp host, Jill, was so nice and very helpful!

Very clean spots that are a great size for our familt of 5. We were able to spread out and enjoy ourselves. The sheriff and park ranger drive through a lot which makes us feel safe and that's probably why they're so clean. Definitely recommend.

Hillsboro Cove is kept trimmed up, weeds taken care of, pleasing restful atmosphere. Quiet surroundings with trees, lake views, grills for cooking, fire rings for great night time fires.

Cleanest bathrooms I’ve ever experienced at at state park! The Corp facilities are top notch and soooo much better than the state operated parks. Keep up the good work.

The new 4 day window for reservations works well for us as it eliminates the uncertainty of finding no vacant spaces on arival.

Great place to camp. I wish they wouldn't have went to reservations, but atlest some spots can't be reserved more then 5 days in advance. Gives people a chance to get a spot when not able to book 6 months out. Other then reservations this is a perfect lake.

The camping was great, not so much with reserving a campsite. It was easier to go out and get fcfs. No gate attendant sours the situation. We love camping but this year has been a downer

The campground was very well kept and the restrooms/showers were clean.
