We stayed on the Indian Creek Campground. Did my bookings through recreation .gov. The bookings were easy. The stay was amazing. I had to work in Monroe City for two weeks and boy this was by far the most convenient and best choice I could have made. My husband and our best friend Dodger Dog were able to join me. Thank you so very much.

My husband and I have been camping in this park for three years now. We’ve never had a problem with any site we’ve had nor that any of our family and friends have had. We always have at least 6 campers that we get sites together as we celebrate Christmas in July here. Due to my kids having so Christmas’s to go to around Christmas time. So we celebrate for 4 days in July. It’s a BLAST!! This past year by accident one of our campers in our group reserved a handicap site. ( my son actually had a farm accident and lost half of his foot three years ago) he doesn’t use a handicap parking pass anymore. Anyway when he stopped to ask about staying in that spot he was told that if he did and the park ranger stopped to check if he did he would have to move his camper. So he stayed in another site. This was an honest mistake. THE NEXT DAY another camper pulls in there and sits up. NOONE WAS HANDICAPPED NOR DID THEY HAVE A HANDICAP PARKING TAG. They stayed the whole weekend right in the middle of our 6 spots when my son had to camp on the other side. Not happy about this one. The camp host told my son he couldn’t camp in it but then a few hours later gave it to another person. NOT OK We’d had our reservations for 6 months. And when we made the reservations we we not told it was a handicap spot. They need to get it together. We even went to them and complained and told them the other campers were not handicapped and they said “oh well. “ Not a very smart camp host
reply.

The campground host was very unprofessional and unhelpful. People from our group got told we could not use the handy cap sight they rented even though he was technically handy cap but had no sign witch it does not say anywhere on the sight you have to have and he would not work with us or help change sights. Then the sight was rented out to another person who wasn’t handy cap the same day!!!! I also do not appreciate being harassed about my boat or pickup being the grass while parked in my spot. Being a camp ground at a lake you should be boater friendly many other camp grounds do not bother campers about their parking if they are making an effort to park and not block the road. Most people have a lot of money in boats and supplies and don’t want to park them in overflow parking away from the campsite to have things stolen from them.

Stayed in the Fox Loop. Currently, bath/showers are being shared between this and another loop due to the FoxLoop's building being demolished and rebuilt. Eagle bathroom was a bit dirty.
Site was OK. Not exactly level but water, sewer and power were up to Corp standards. Lake level was low due to drought, but things were done to enable people to get to the beach and swim.
