Nice facility but there are some problems. No attendent during night to ensure quiet times are enforced. Also loads of geese and their droppings. Nice place though.

This is our favorite spot. #7. It has so much shade and a little nook for you to swim in or put kayaks out. So peaceful and close to the flushing restroom and showers.

We love staying at Ruark Bluff west because of the many electric hook up campsites along the water. We have camped there several times a summer for the last ten plus years. The restrooms are always kept cleaned and well stocked. It has been a bit inconvienent not having a host at the checkin point this year. This past stay we had no pass card for our vehicle for lauching a boat. Also the last two sites we camped at the picnic tables were warped pretty bad. I can recommend the Floating Cafe at Mutton Creek Marina for some good food when you don't feel like cooking it is only a few minutes away by water and 5 mi by road. Mutton Creek Marina also has water craft rentals and wonderful friendly service.

Staff was very friendly but the sites are really small and crammed together. There was no grass for us to put our tent up so unfortunately had to set up on gravel. Would try again but would definitely pick a different site next time.

Camp ground was clean and quiet. With a good view of the lake. No cell service just a heads up for tmobile. The showers and bathrooms could use a good cleaning and make over but was usable. Sheriff and park ranger do patrol cupel times a day so that was a plus but over all a good place to get away at. Just plan ahead for the lack of service.
