It was a 4 hour drive for us but that was the only downside. We stayed in D4 which had a path down to the lake where we could get in and float or swim which was very nice. The only negative was the distance from the campsite to the water. You can bank your kyak or fishing boat on the shore below your campsite, however, they are out of sight so there's a trust issue there. I left mine there with no issue . The view from the site was great and the campgrounds are neat and well keep. Nice size sites with partial wooding between which makes them more private. I would definately return!!

Try not to forget anything. Stores are about 16 miles from park. Electric connection at my site was about 25 ft from back of parking site.

The campsites are roomy, private & always clean. Check-in was seamless. We didn't see much of the campground host on G loop but we didn't really have any issues. The bathhouse is in need of an update & in summer the showers are too hot! Some poison ivy control would be nice 😏 Holly Bay would be hard to beat for our situation. Our favorite campground!

Holly Bay is a beautiful campground. The sites are big and beautiful and private. There hosts were phenomenally wonderful!! The paths were awesome and the lake is so amazingly clean!! The shower houses are another story. My husband doesn’t complain about much but even he thinks they were dirty. He said someone needs to come and pressure wash them. The old faucets are terrible. You have to push them to turn them on and then you get maybe 15-30 seconds water before they need pushed again. And the floor is
terribly dirty and unsanitary. Old stuff is fine IF it’s maintained properly. This needs updated. We showered twice up there in the shower house and finally couldn’t do it anymore. We just showered in our camper. Very disappointed in the shower.
