We had a nice level site with shade and a view of the lake. Only recommendation would be to ask for signage to site numbers. It would help to know which road to follow to get to our site number. Just going by the map wasn't helpful for me.

We enjoyed our stay, the only thing we didn’t like was even with the gate closed and the sign that said road closed people kept opening the gate and coming in. But we love the location.

We have camped at Slough Creek many times, but the park was in better shape and looked more beautiful than I have ever seen it. It was mowed and trimmed, and it was a joy to be there. Keep up the good work!! I have seen it at times when we would remark how badly it needed to be mowed, which just contributes to the insect problem. We were very pleased this time. Please continue to keep this beautiful campground in good shape.

Clear signs for campground access and frequent patrolling of park attendants & park rangers (we asked for help with a wasp nest on the electric post and she was very helpful).
Tree coverage is limited in the area, luckily this section had some coverage.
Pros of this site: electricity, table, ample parking space, not a shared space/site
Cons of this site: not as flat as would have liked, especially for tent and volleyball set up, poison ivy, distance from restrooms
Playground near the entrance is small but convenient if you have small children. Shelter access and benches available which were a plus.
Bathrooms closest to site could use some upcoming, especially toilets. Wall hooks would be a great addition! Thank you for plenty of toilet paper.
The other shower/restroom area had great parking space and mowed grass for walking access. On the women’s side, 4/6 showers worked but not all drains… so water was stagnant and traveled down to the restrooms.
*facility phone number does not work
