Old Town

The park was a nice little park but maintenance in the park was not standard for our expectations of an army corps park. We were camping with friends. Our space A18 had a very large mud hole that I had to wade in to plug in. and my concerns about this safety issue fell on deaf ears. The local office here said they can maybe move me, but not my party. And they said the problem is not going to get fixed for a while as it is not a priority. I ask to talk to someone higher or the maintenance crew and was refused. I assumed if they saw the issue they would work to fix it. I even offered to help. And with the standing water under and behind my camper, the mosquito population was outrageous making it impossible to enjoy setting out. That was my main concern but also the shower facility was dark with lights going off to early and the dark old ill maintained building made it appear dirty. The dump station drain, also was also under 6-8in of water. The service volunteer in the park drained the water, but his solution was to open the drain with a stick so I would not have to get wet. Of course I would have had to go find a stick. All in all, I was most disappointed that the corps had what I felt was zero concern for my safety. A salute to your gate guard volunteer who brought two long boards and placed them across a part of the mud hole so I would not have to walk in it "again" and my elect cable could set up on them, out of the water. I should have ask for a refund and payment for a pair of shoes ruined in the mud. All this disgust I felt would have been prevented had you just cared enough to at a minimum, to show some compassion for my concerns and I not be dismissed as unreasonable or unworthy. The corps did not show any concern that I felt unsafe while standing in ankle deep water and messing with electric. They fell just short of saying suck it up. I just now thought, I have a TBI and off balance, who would be responsible if I fell in that mud, and was hurt?

Senior Heaven!

If you are in for great scenery, you are in for a disappointment. The lake had flooding in 2018, followed by 3 years of drought. The resulting damage to the trees along the lake was devastating. The landscape now looks like a post-apocalyptic movie set...piles of dead and broken trees amongst the sad stumps of what were once beautiful woods.

On a positive note, the camp hosts were very friendly and accommodating. There is a fantastic winery just down the road from the camp, as well as great hiking and a challenging disc golf course close by.

Stayed three nights at Old Town Campground with no problems. I enjoyed my stay.

The campers staying next to us have been there a while, they were there 2 weeks prior at our first stay and again on the 2nd stay, music loud and arriving back at 1130pm banging on something outside and they do not pick up their dogs crap it’s all over where we have to walk to do our hook ups. I thought there was a noise curfew and picking up after dogs…

Totally love this spot the view was perfect and lots of wide open space.

We have spent considerable time here and love this area. The facilities are clean and the caretaker was very helpful and friendly.
We’ll be back.

Great view of the lake, Clean restrooms , very nice campsites

Small campground with fewer sites than it once had before the flood. There is still a lot of firewood available on the ground from the fallen trees that have died perhaps because of the flood. All the stites have a good view of Lake Perry. There are several other parks and hiking and biking trails in the area. The camp host tried telling me that e-bikes were not allowed in Corps of Engineers campgrounds. I don't believe that could be true. There is a lot of waterfowl in the area including migrating white pelicans. There is a Casey's convenience store and gas Station with diesel in Ozaki about a mile away. It has a good selection of adult beverages.

Peaceful and quiet.
