The Narrows campground is very nice, very clean bath houses and many good sites. The campground hosts are great, and I hope they come back next season. Located next to the Narrows marina which is very convenient for boaters.

Good spot we were in . A18. Bathrooms were clean. There was a view of the lake. The grass did need mowing when we arrived but did mow just before we left .

The Narrow is one of our favorite camping spots. Not to far from home and always kid friendly experience. Our children love walking to the lake and around the campgrounds meeting others. Always clean and peaceful.

Linda is an excellent hostess, so very kind and checking on the grounds often, making everyone feel safe and welcome. The shower house was very clean! Thankful for those that work hard doing that task. Our camping experience there was excellent, having the best neighbors and already thinking about plans for next year at The Narrows~The Pirates :)

When we started camping 10 years ago The Narrows Campground was well maintained and bathhouse was clean. I was disappointed to see how tall the grass had got before we arrived. The grass was mowed before we arrived, but the weeds around the edges were still tall. Seems like there are more campers and less being done to maintain the campgrounds. Ice being sold at the campground would be nice also. We choose to stay at The Narrows, because we have a boat at the Narrows Marinia, but I can drive from home if the grass isn't mowed and better maintained.
