South Pike Bay is praised for its beautiful, peaceful setting, clear water, and spacious campsites, making it a favorite for many families returning for decades. The campground offers well-maintained facilities, lovely sandy beaches, and helpful hosts, contributing to a relaxing experience. However, some reviews mention issues like overgrown areas, unkempt bathrooms, and inconsistent enforcement of campground rules, which could detract from the overall enjoyment.

We have been camping there for years same weekend. When we arrived this year we were not able to park where we could get our slide out out and awning. There was a timber in the way. Luckily we had a different site we could move to but definitely not where we wanted to be. The site 18 is where we should have been Either trees need to be removed or a different placement needs to be marked off for this site.

Pike bay is our favorite place to camp, been going there every year for 25+ years. The only 2 issues I have this past vacation was the fact that they put in " spurs" & ruined a whole bunch of campsites!! The other issue I have is there needs to be another toilet facility added on the end of the campsites. It's a primitive campground & by putting in the spurs you have limited use of your site. The camp host is awesome!! Hope you keep him!!

always a favorite spot! wish they would do a little more basic maintenance on sites (stump removal, trails cleared, etc) and bathrooms need a little tlc

The mosquitoes were unbearable. In addition, the host seemed to do little except ride around on a lawn mower and the dumpster was running over. The location is ok, but there is a forest service campground in the Norway Beach Recreation Area nearby that is nicer and has electricity.

Love this campground, nice sandy beaches and very basic. My only wish would be that generators not be allowed.

I have been camping at South Pike Bay Campground over 60 years. The lake is pristine and offers amazing sunsets. The only negative is that the forestry department does not offer wood to purchase anymore. Also, some campers run their generators all day long. I will continue to visit this back to nature site with my friends and family as long as I can.
