We stayed at Site 4 and Site 5 and truly enjoyed both sites. Very peaceful to watch the sun set over the lake from our campsite. Nice, quiet campground.

Eureka has become one of our favorite campgrounds! Almost all of the sites are waterfront, the facilities are clean, and the camp hosts are warm and welcoming. This campground is also very close to Patty’s Settlement, so it’s a great weekend getaway for the whole family!

The camp hosts were extremely helpful and accommodating .Even helped us move our picnic table. Great park with very clean shower house. The only issue is the asphalt driveways have a pretty high drop from continuous resurfacing on top of old asphalt.
