Really enjoy staying at Outlet (Melvern). The sites are fairly level, water pressure is good and cellular signal is 4-5 bars (Verizon). The beautiful fall weather made this an even better stay, with the fabulous sunsets on the lake and warm, comfortable days and cool, crisp nights (great for a campfire!).

We really enjoy staying at the campground. We like that we can leave our belonging like chairs and stuff out and it doesn't get messed with. We like the staff that help take care of the campground. We stay several times a year.

We really loved our stay at Melvern Lake. We stayed two nights and wished we stayed longer. Our site (#27) had the lake through the back window of our 35 ft 5th wheel. The grass was kept cut in walking areas. The park was very clean and well kept. We did not have any interaction with the camphosts. There are 2 washers and dryers in Loop A that were in the rear of the bigger bathhouse. They aren't marked, so just try the door. We would definitely return here for a longer stay.
