Very nice campground, quiet during the week. The swimming area was warm and clear with the sunnies swimming around us. The vault toilet was clean and didn't smell. Would recommend it for anyone wanting to have a nice quiet experience in the woods among the tall pines.

I have used Clubhouse Lake Campground many, many times beginning back in the 60's or 70's. Being retired I now go there weekdays to avoid any crowd, and it's always serene and peaceful. It is a beautiful setting populated with mature red pines and has a wonderful and clear lake that's great for swimming and fishing. A fishing pier is in place. With new asphalt pavement the drive in has five fewer miles of gravel road. At this time of the year (July) the mosquitos are plentiful so bring your repellent. If you want to drive out for a bite there's a breakfast/lunch place in the nearest town (Marcell), and a mile or two north of there a restaurant/bar/motel. The food is good and the prices decent at both places. Also at the town is an information center that can answer your questions and supply information about the area and its attractions. The locals are nice folks; friendly and helpful. I will be back for sure, and recommend it to you.

Only few comments: Kids were swimming off the handi-cap pier, no recycle pickup do to lack of personnel and no more wood sales. Not all the sites can be reserved is another deficit. Aside from the minor issues the stay was excellent. We will return again!

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- Reservations are required at least 4 days in advance; after this, sites are first-come first-serve.
- For additional information, refer to the Chippewa National Forest resources.
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.
