Cross Lake Recreation Area

Wonderful camping experience at a beautiful park!

This was our groups first time at this park and it was quieter & the sites more spacious than we expected. The campground is very accessible to town, restaurants, shops and offers easy walking. We didn't hear about the free boat ride by the Loon center or about the dog park and local hiking trails until our last day there. It would have been nice to have had a communication board noting some of these things and local activities. Our group tends to not want to look to social media while we are together so having local events/music/etc posted somewhere within the park would have been a nice addition to the park and check-in. Otherwise the park was clean the people were friendly.

Well kept and clean campground facilities, nice size sites and beautiful trees and water views.

We were up there mainly for fishing and to visit our grand daughter, grandson-in-law and great grand son. We had a wonderful time fishing and a with the family. The campgrounds and bathroom facilities are clean.

over crowded, sites to close together, too many dogs. Not a good place if you want peace and quiet.

Staff and volunteers are excellent 👌

The campground is very nice with plenty of space between sites, nice beach area, and very close to downtown. The people we interacted with that worked/hosted there were very friendly as well. The only negative was our specific site, although was very large once we got into it, it was not easy to get into for our fifth wheel. We have a 40 ft fifth wheel and it shows that size camper being just fine for that site(site 26) it was not easy backing into that site at all. You have to back in up a hill and with trees on either side trying to maneuver it was difficult and we have camped for many years so we aren’t new to backing into sites at all. Thankfully a neighbor came right over because he knew it was going to be a challenge and helped us. It’s more of a smaller camper back in site and maybe not a large fifth wheel where the branches were scraping the top of our fifth wheel as we were trying to back in as well. Once we got in the site was beautiful though and pulling out was a lot easier. We would definitely come back, we just scoped out other sites that would be better for our specific sized fifth wheel and how the back in process would be.

We love coming to this campground every year.

Lots of activities

Dark Horse brewing was cool, The Wharf is a great place to watch boats and Mad Rabbit restaurant was unique and had great cocktails!
