Everything was fine, except for somebody came in and rearranged my camp while I was gone and cleaned my fire pit and stole my lighter that was sitting next to my barbecue and I was camped right across from the host

First time at Silver Tip Campground. We went late in the season, so it was pretty quiet except on weekends. Had easy access to kayaking at Lake Alpine. The camp host was very friendly and helpful. Restrooms were clean. Our site (11) took a little doing to get our trailer even, it was at a slight slope. We were across from the restrooms. Easy access to water for the campsite. Nice trail from the campground to the lake if you don't mind walking about a mile.

Such a great campground! We like to the flat 30 minute walk to the lake when we're motivated! And we enjoy the 5 minute drive to the lodge for a meal when we don't feel like cooking. It's family friendly and a great find.

Very nice campground. Beautiful trees and wildlife. It is old and some of the sites are small with not much room for rv's. We had a cargo trailer in space 22 and it barely fit with our pick up truck. Nice space for a tent but kind of close to the campsite next door (but not too bad). Flush toilets are old but seem to be maintained. Water is available but not at every campsite, we had to walk a ways to get water. Camp host was nice. No firewood at campground, either bring some with you or you will have to go to the resort down the road to buy it at overpriced rates.
