People did not respect quiet hours, camp host did nothing.

Beautiful grounds, well maintained, clean, spacious sites with ample privacy. Nice large picnic table, ample shade, fresh water spicket was nearby with potable water and were well spaced throughout the campground near each site. We had no issues with electric hookup for our camper. There's also 2 lanes at the dump station for filling fresh water tanks and emptying gray/black tanks at the same station. Being right next to the lake we did notice there were more flies/mosquitos to deal with than we've had at other campgrounds (our citronella candle did nothing to combat it), but this has nothing to do with the campground itself (and was as expected for the time of year, we were there in September). The only aspect of the campground that I found a bit strange/difficult to use was working the shower in the restroom. It's a single stall bathroom meaning one space with a toilet, sink, and open shower (no curtain). The lock on the exterior door worked which was a relief. However, I was concerned that my time showering would prevent someone else up from using the toilet. To operate the shower there's a push button that only allows a brief spray of water, and must be repeatedly pressed in order to fully bathe. I understand that this is to conserve water, but the spritz of water is so brief that it was cumbersome to use and made showering difficult. There appeared to be no way of adjusting the temperature either, but the shower did get nice and hot on its own. There were hooks conveniently located on the wall next to the shower for hanging your towel, however without a shower curtain it caused everything nearby to get wet; including the floor, which could present a slip hazard for the next guest. Otherwise, the bathrooms were very clean and stocked with handsoap, an automatic hand drier, and toilet paper. The staff were very friendly and helpful, they even took a bag of trash to the dumpster for us when they were driving by on the golf cart checking on the campsites.

The site was great, but I have never met a more hateful Camp host than the one at this location. And she was hateful for no reason. First she accused me of running over a campsite number post with my BRAND NEW van (which was miraculously unscathed from the event- because I didn’t do it!) and then was incredibly hateful because I pulled into an empty campsite so my husband could hook up to the camper a few minutes before we were leaving for good. Other campers even commented about it. (Her screaming was heard at multiple sites.)
Not to mention, the bathrooms stayed nasty. Or locked. (I’m assuming so they didn’t have to clean them???) Didn’t matter what time of day it was, they were dirty with much of the same filth that had been there the day before.
We’ve camped dozens of times at Twin Knobs and never had a problem. The weather was great, the site was beautiful, but the camp host was a big no, sadly. (We normally love the hosts because they are friendly older couples who stop to chat.)

Excellent place to camp. Plenty of space between campsites. Thousand trails does an excellent job.

A favorite spot with gorgeous scenery, hikes, clean restrooms/showers and the rangers are the most helpful anywhere!

I love this Twin Knobs campground. The staff are very warm, funny and friendly. The campground is very well maintained, the sites are well spaced out and we always have a great time. Looking forward to coming back!

What a great week away! It felt secluded even though there were lots of other campers around. We hiked every day around the campground and went up the trail on one of the knobs (?) of Twin Knobs. It was great! Every day was beautiful. We will definitely go again!

Twin Knobs is one of our favorite places to camp. We stay on A Loop in order to have close boat access. The shower houses need attention. The shower would run for about 30 seconds and shut off, just enough time to get warm. There was also no shower curtain, which made for a cold, uncomfortable shower. Fortunately, we were able to shower in my families other camper. The trails have been cleaned up this year and the sites are always kept clean and brush cut back. Hosts are always helpful and courteous. My family had sites A32 and A33 both are pretty level and large. We had a huge persimmon tree over us dropping persimmons. We ate our fill of them while sharing with the squirrels. Each site had picnic tables and fire rings. Water access was close to these two sites.
