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.

Great experience. We reserved a sit and didn’t realize it had no sewer hookup. The attendant at the check in gate helped us to move to a spot with full hook ups. Very professional and helpful. We also had a issue with the electrical hookup and when reported a repair person showed up right away and replaced the plug fixing the problem. Excellent service. Our stay was wonderful and we will definitely be back!
