This was our first visit to Baxter Campground and we were happy with our experience! It is a smaller, quiet campground with sites right along the shore with nice views of the lake. We had a rather large goup with seven families taking four sites. The attendent was friendly, accomodating and informative. He helped us with were to go for food and other supplies and even gave us suggestions for fishing spots. One of our party actually lost her phone but one of the workers there found it and turned it in. We could not have asked for anything more. We will definatley try to reserve there again!

Our camp site was 27. Nice right next to the water. During the day there is boat traffic which produces rolling waves on shore which can catch you by surprise when your in the water.

This is our second stay at Baxter, and there was no disappointment. The staff was great the restrooms were clean, and the park was in order. Other than the lake being a bit high the visit was very pleasant. See ya next year!
