Silver Tip Campground at Lake Alpine is praised for its clean facilities, spacious campsites, and a friendly camp host, Dennis, who is helpful and accommodating. Many guests enjoyed the beautiful surroundings, easy access to the lake, and family-friendly atmosphere, making it a delightful destination for outdoor activities. However, some sites are noted to be uneven or outdated, and there are occasional concerns about cleanliness and site proximity. Overall, visitors express a strong desire to return.

Beautiful campground! So close to the lake and there are multiple beautiful hikes around. Very friendly camp host and fellow campers. Definitely recommend and can't wait to go back!

Sites on the outer edge generally seem to be preferable, as do the ones on the southwest (high) side.

Didn’t realize this site was at a slant to the table and to much soft dirt not much pine needles.

Good campground with an excellent host that runs a tight ship. Sites are spacious, facilities are clean and neighbors are quiet. Highly recommended, look forward to my next stay.
