This was our 4th stay at Wax Campground (C loop) this season, and for a change there was no rain this time. Always enjoy the quiet surroundings, clean sites, and views of the water. Clean restroom & shower facility, with plenty of hot water. Staff is always friendly and helpful. We'll certainly be back next year.

We will definitely be back. Beautiful park, private, nice big camp sites, lots of shade. Some camp sites right on lake for great fishing. Hosts were very helpful. Showers and bath house were exceptionally clean. One of my favorite camp sites so far.

Love the camp ground. Only thing I would like to see improved is a better play area for the kids in section C

Wax is always a great time. The only negative I can think of is the grass was pretty long. The dogs had a hard time. Simple issue and would not keep me from coming back. We love WAX!!!

I had site B010. The site is good but I scratched up the side if my camper backing into the site due to the Cedar Trees hanging out in the driveway. These need to be trimmed back out so they do Not interfere with the RVs moving in and out. The trees along the Road inside the Campground also need to be trimmed back as they drag down the side of the coming through the Campground.

The road to the park is another story. Very narrow! Beware if you have a huge camper.
