I say with sadness that after visiting Hurricane Creek Campground for 40 years., and having our yearly family reunion there, it’s a probability that we won’t be back unless there are improvements. It used to be a nice well-kept campground, but has declined over many years. Just to name off some of the top issues we had.; the men’s bathroom was very nasty. Only one of two toilets were usable for three days. They were closed one day for sure, and it may have been two, because we seen no one around. Tiles in men’s shower are broken up to where you see dirt and grass growing in corner. Sink was stopped up with whiskers floating around for three days. There’s never any soap. I took one warm shower out of six days of stay in the women’s. Water was most always cold, which was everyone’s complaint. Beach area has been taken over by grass through years and has made it so small with little sand. The swimming area is rock bottom, not sand. Young Grandniece sliced her foot while swimming on rocks. GrandSon came out with a leech stuck to him. Snakes were swimming everywhere in water. Two larger snakes were killed in the Camp area during our stay, brother-in-law busted his tire on a cut off fence post stob in his camp site. Several areas needed bush hogging. Years of the fallen leaves from surrounding trees are everywhere; in your campsite and ditches.(needs to be burned off.) several kids had bike wrecks from the rough payment throughout the campground. It was just too much this past time to make you want to come back. It’s really sad when you know what it used to be. I do hope that this review gets to someone who cares and can make a change. Camping is a past time favorite for families, and the good simple things in life are getting fewer and less attention.

We had a beautiful view of the lake. The campgrounds were very clean. We went over to Prizer Point to do some fun activities. We also made the quick trip to LBL (30 minute drive).

Staff were helpful. The showerhouse is a little dated but adequate. Most sites are not big rig friendly because of the culverts beside the entrance ways to the sites and across the road on some. Also some have trees right at the entrance making it hard to maneuver into the drive. Roads are a little rough in this park. As compared to other COE parks I have been to this one is average. Love that each site feels like you are in the woods. Beach is nice and ground are kept up.

Site 49 not level at all. With a 36 ft trailer it was very difficult to set up. The electrical and the water are on the incorrect side of this pull through. Hate to say that with our family coming to this camp for 32 years the area is the worst i've ever seen. No money is being spent here. Shower bather house has gotten no attention and now the panels are coming off the walls in the men's and the tiles are coming off the floor. The paved blacktop on sire 49 is crumbling badly on the edges and loose paving is strewn allover making the footing around the site very dangerous to walk. I had to kick out paths to enter and leave the area around the camper to keep from breaking our ankles. It is a shame that this great area is being ignored.

The sites we were in was very unlevel. Did not even have enough blockes to level the camper. Sister was in next site and water & electric hookups were on front side. They had to borrow an extension cord. Needs to have that on the site info in BOLD letters.
