This was our first visit to Holly Bay. We stayed in G loop. Our site was a premium (lake view) site. Yes the lake is there and somewhat visible, but this campground is heavily forested, so there won’t be any gazing out across the water. Our site was relatively level and very clean. A crew was seen cleaning sites as we left so they do make the effort. In general this campground is in a quite hilly area, so there inclines to deal with every where. Walking around we saw some sites that would be tough to level up on (for RV folks). We also noticed that some of the power post were positioned well to the front of the site. Also for this campground there is only one dump station so we waited probably 30 minutes to dump. Fair warning to larger rigs wanting to stay in G loop, the cul de sac at the back is a fairly tight radius and the road fairly narrow. We witnessed someone drop the inside two wheels off the inside of the concrete culvert on their fifth wheel and have to drag it out on the axle tubes. Our rig is 33’ behind a 4 door dually and I could make it ok, you just need to exercise caution and SLOW down. Good water pressure. We didn’t use the bath house. Zero T-Mobile signal.

We have been going to Holly Bay since 1995. It is my favorite place to go. The camp sites are separated by 20-30 feet; they are clean and well maintained by the hosts. Each site has a fire pit and lantern poles. There are several sites that are lake view and many more that have easy lake access. There are miles of walking trails (or Biking) with lots of natural beauty no matter what season you visit. I have had a little problem getting a campsite due to reservations going quickly.

Great campsites. Lots of privacy and wooded areas. Hosts were super friendly. Campgrounds & bathrooms very clean. Our site backed up to Laurel Lake where you can dock your boat and leave overnight. Sheltowee trail runs through campgrounds which is beautiful and great for hiking with the family & pets.

Very pleasant camping sites, enough vegetation between units to give a sense of being in nature. Everything about Holly Bay is wonderful, especially the people who work there. BUT, the showers need work.
