We loved Holly Bay campground! It was very private and secluded. The staff was very helpful and so friendly. We would definitely go back to this amazing campground.

It is the best place to go if you just want to be off the grid and re-enter yourself. Sites are great as well.

I took my kids and grandkids for a long weekend for my son's 25th birthday. We had a great time. It was close to the lake, so my son could easily fish. The spillway beach was right down the road and they all love the water, so they were very happy. The campsites were very clean and a good size. The only drawback was their closeness to each other, but it wasn't overwhelming.

Very friendly Staff! You will NOT regret any time that you spend at Holly Bay Campground!! Very clean sites, and if you want to enjoy the water; campers enjoy their own boat launch! It is separate from the Holly Bay Marina, I must tell you that the HBM is also an excellent experience. Delicious food and the hiking trails are well marked!

We have been coming here for five years now and have never had a bad experience. I would like to say the old management company was horrible as far as customer service and up keep of the campground. This new company Vista and the staff this year has absolutely been fantastic! The campground is the cleanest I have seen in five years. The campsites are kept up and clean. They have trimmed all the debris/poison ivy away from the sites as much as allowed/possible, the fire pits are always clean when we arrive and NO signs of nasty cigarette butts anywhere! Sorry to those who smoke. You constantly see the staff, they always wave or stop and talk if they have a minute and are always checking the campground and maintaining it This has year has probably been the best! A shout out to Christina at the front gate who ALWAYS has a smile on her face and never hesitates to help or answer any questions. Her husband, sorry I forgot is name is equally great and drives around to the campsites handing out sidewalk chalk to the kids. Please don’t get me wrong ALL the staff is FANTASTIC in EVERY WAY!! You ALL are a GREAT TEAM that makes Holly Bay by far our favorite place! See you next year!

We stayed in H7 and had a fantastic time. The site was split between two levels with the tent pad up-top and the fire ring and table below. We’re tent campers, so I do wish that we had brought two extension cords for the tent and our eating/cooking area (next time!). The walk down to the lake from our site was steep, but doable for us. We’re a young and active family, but it probably wouldn’t be doable for everyone. The lake was wonderful! So quiet and clean. We brought an inflatable paddle board and kayak. The bathrooms were clean, and we visited the showers in another loop. This was our first time at Holly Bay, but we plan to come back!
