What a beautiful little campground! Quiet, secluded, with a lovely trail down to the lake. It was a little bit of a trick to find it, because the sign pointing to the drive-in is missing. Look for the outhouse! I would stay here again.

Very nice campsite. The sites were extremely close to each other but no one was there besides the first night. Definitely have mosquitoes at this location but bug spray, candles, fire and we had a screened in gazebo definitely helped. Sites 4 was on a slope but it seemed like the rest had flat spots for a tent. We were able to make site 4 work even with the slope because it was one of the larger sites.

It was quiet. We did have neighbors. All sites were filled but site 1 was far enough away to not get much noise. The directions are a little off, use the directions provided until you see the sign for the little bass camp sites. Sites 2 and 3 do lead directly out to the lake. There was plenty firewood around because we couldn’t bring any outside wood into the site. There is a picnic table and a fire pit at each of the sites.

Excellent site overlooking the lake. Drive back was not bad at all with a small camper. AT&T cell coverage was there with only about 1 to 2 bars but was useable. Toilet was clean and well kept. Mosquitos were abundant but bug spray kept them at bay. lake quality was excellent with crystal clear water.

Policies & Rules

Arrival & departure

  • Guests must occupy their campsite on the first night of their stay.
  • Guests must not leave their campsite unattended for over 24 hours.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
