The campground was quiet and peaceful. There was ample space between campsites to have a sense of privacy. Campground’s host, Jack, has a wonderful friendly dog named, Reggie. It was great to see them around the campground!!!! Jack was very helpful. More long trails to walk on would have been nice.

Excellent camping! Particularly tent camping, many sites have a parking area, with the tent pad, fire pit and table in a separate area down a short path. Pretty cool setup. We were in site 26, right by the lake. Nice, but everything slopes towards the lake, which was a bit irritating

There was a slight mix up with our reservation due to someone switching the reservation cards around on the post in front of our site. The campground host was very helpful and was getting it all sorted out for us. We opted to move to a different site so the guest that was all settled in could stay put and enjoy his stay. We had a wonderful site (9) that worked out better for our needs. Nice site right on the lake. Bathrooms were clean, as were the sites. Very nice stay and we plan on returning in the future. PS- found blueberries and a nice spot to pick raspberries next year. BONUS

Crescent Lake camp ground was nice. Was different how some sites were only first come first camp and no electricity. Never camped at a place like that before. Was not used to no lights . We did enjoy the camp ground with family in two other sites.
Would be nice for the campground to furnish hand sanitizer in the toilets. Would go again.

The campground is awesome and well taken care of.
The boat landing needs some work, your trailer can fall off the concrete ramp due to all the gravel washed away.
Was very surprised by how much the lake has dropped since my June trip while others in the area have not dropped that much.
