Jo Bonner Campground

.

Nice site but needs some grooming.

On arrival found that the reservation sign had someone else’s initials on it, not our own, and was also being occupied by a neighboring camp sites truck and boat trailer. Neighboring campers were not to be found to even ask to move - so we were unable to pull our camper in. Additionally, someone from another site kept coming to check the reservation tag, which to us implied someone else was looking at the site. Camp host was unavailable “off duty” in person and by phone to try and help resolve. Waited for three hours - before deciding to cut our losses and locate a new site.

Beyond that - the campground wasn’t much more than an open field with pull through spaces. No shade. No privacy if seeking any. Generally wasn’t a good experience from the get go.
Im sure this place was great for all the boaters, but as a campground - I wouldn’t! Not again!

On weekends this place is really just for locals. So many boat trailers, cars and trucks that it’s more like a parking lot than a CG. Parties go long after quiet hours. The CH off duty sign was there our entire 5 day stay and we never saw them. A truck illegally parked overnight in overflow had its alarm going off all night. Sites are incredibly difficult to level. A lot of loud construction generators. Folks cut through sites without regard. I gave it two stars because after it emptied out mid-Sunday it was nice

Beautiful campground and the camp host was the best l have ever met! Outstanding worker and very personable

Beautiful campsite in Magpie Bay.

Jo Bonner Campground is a small but very friendly location. If you're looking for shade and peace, this may not be the place because it's right next to the boat launch, attracts families with lots of kids, and has limited shade. That said, it was a good experience.

The campground was closed due to horse gulch fire which is understood. Can I get a refund for the 2 sites I paid for?

Camp host was very good. Very nice campground.

Another year another AWESOME time at Jo Bonner! The wildlife alone (deer and geese) and the gorgeous lakefront campsites keeps us coming back year after year! Cannot wait for a return trip!

Oh, Todd the campground host was the best and I mean top shelf!!!
