Great camping in the shoulder season (campsite had water/power still on, facilities were closed). Campsite was clean and simple to level camper. Nice to have a view of the lake. Some shade at most sites. No signs guiding you to your campsite in C loops, so before or upon arrival, familiarize yourself with the map (it's posted at shower houses too). Lots of hydrants near non-water sites. Dump station is in great condition with hookups for cleaning water and drinking water.

Stopped for an overnight and was very pleased. The campground was quite empty but it was a Wednesday night. Camp host greeted us promptly and was super pleasant. Things were clean and quiet.

We stay here alone never had any problems. Mike does an excellent job keeping things clean. For Jim and Betty they are very good. Good customer service and is always available if you need something.

Berry Bend is a beautiful, well-kept campground. The views are stunning. The staff is very friendly, accessible, knowlegable, and accommodating. The park is full of wildlife and most campsites are well-shaded. It has two buildings with flushable toilets, and one has showers. There is a relatively new playground for the kiddies. It's located on a part of the lake that is great both for fishing and skiing/tubing. It's walkable to the old swimming beach (now closed), but the sand is still there is you want to wander out for a swim (at your own risk). I've camped at Berry Bend for over 40 years and have too many wonderful memories of family and friends gathered there to count. My husband and I have moved from a tent to a camper now, and we'll continue to camp at Berry Bend as long as we're able. Thank you for maintaining this fabulous park!

It was really enjoyable a very nice place the only thing if they can mow a path to the water so you don't get snake bit when you go fishing would be nice

Great spot and easy to get to the water which not every site at this campground is. It was still too cold for me to swim but my lab didn't care. She loved it. Cell coverage isn't great but we used our starlink sooo...........
