Our site was on the B loop. Bathrooms were perfect and beautiful view of the lake. But, the sites in that area are tiny. There was barely enough room for our tent and we were uncomfortably close to our neighbors. Also, in this section there are no fire pits. We were not prepared to do meals without a fire pit so we had to buy charcoal and find a park.

Our first time in loop A. Nice sites in time will have better shade.
Would be nice if loop A had sewer hook ups.

Our favorite place to camp. Prefer C loop due to the space between campsites.

Great park. Many activities- playgrounds, swim beaches, trails and fishing. No motor lake for kayak and paddle boards. Clean and safe family environment

We had one of the best spots right on the water with plenty of shade, beautiful view, and very spacious campsite. The weather was perfect and the grounds were clean and well maintained. Melvern is one of our favorite campgrounds.

There was several people camping there and you could barely tell it. Very quiet!
