The only negative comment I can think of is that lots of times we were there the grass was not mowed and it’s such a nice clean place to camp and the tall grass was kind of a bummer. We love Methodist cove and we go there frequently and usually stay 4-5 days at a time. It’s very peaceful and pretty and your not cramped in a tiny area.

There are a few sites which over-look the lake & are on the "lake side" of the loop road. If you can get these I would highly recommend it. Our site was fine & the price was great. We were just passing through from PA to Colorado and so didn't spend much time there, but we did have our kayaks along and some spare time to kayak the lake. Unfortunately there is no convenient place to launch a paddle craft (the lake banks are steep), thus the 4 stars. If you trailer a boat, however you are in-luck as they do have a nice launch facility for that (double ramps), but it was steep and very busy while we were there.

Methodist Cove Campground was a nice campground. Very clean facility overall and our site (84) was level and easy to get in and out of. Would recommend

Nice long pad for longer campers. Great view looking out over the lake. Not much for shade. Nice bike/hike trail into town.
