This campsite is really nice. Plenty of trees between sites for privacy. There is a pathway through the woods that takes you to the lake. The shore here has flat rocks so it's really nice lake access. My one complaint about this place is the campground sold scraps of woodcoated in a black substance to be used for firewood. It obviously had been used in construction for something and is toxic to burn. Thank God we didn't plan on cooking over a fire.

We had a very good experience at Twin Knobs. We camp here often, but we had never camped during their Halloween events. The kids had a great time and it was a safe environment for them to trick or treat. The only drawback was that, for us older mamaws, it would have been great to have had a golf cart to ride around to take the kids. People were driving trucks and cars. Just for this event, I wish they were allowed. Other than that, the park is always clean and well maintained. The new management seems to be doing a great job.

This was one of the best campgrounds our family has been to. The sites were spacious, our site in particular looked out over the water and was really pretty. The campground hosts were kind. We were there the last day of the season, so they were kind enough to offer free popsicles to my kids instead of just throwing them all away. All in all this was a great experience. We will definitely consider camping here again.
One more thing - the tent pad ground is HARD. Bring a hammer to pound your tent stakes into the ground. We forgot ours and had to use a large rock. You won't be able to just push them in with your boot.

Campground taken care of by some dedicated staff. Very well kept, bathrooms too. Gatehouse friendly. Only downside, couldn't get any firewood at 415pm, even when calling the number posted for help/firewood

We were pleased with the great staff at Twin Knobs. We got turned around and couldn't locate our site and asked one of the staff driving by and they gave us great directions. We had made a left turn instead of a right turn!
Enjoyed the lake trail as did our dog.
