We have been camping at Holly Bay for over 40 years. We went when our boys were small and we go now with our four grandchildren. I wouldnβt camp anywhere else. You wonβt be disappointed.

G5 is a fantastic site. We had the boat parked at the bottom of the hill. Great site, great experience. Not too close to the neighbors.

Had a lot of rain that week but the campground still provided a scenic site. Bathrooms and showers could have been cleaner and better managed but outside of that had a great week with family and friends.

Our first time at Holly Bay. I loved the campground and the privacy and distance between sites. Everyone was seeming to follow the rules with leashed pets and loved the lake and hiking trails. Definitely will be returning and the staff was very friendly and informative. Thank you.

Fantastic place to camp! We stayed in site E2 with electrical hookups and water. The sites a very spacious with ample space between each site. We brought Kayaks and launched from the boat ramp area in the campground. Showers and restrooms are clean. Firewood was only $6 and staff were friendly.
