The campground staff was friendly and helpful. The campground was clean and taken care of. Beach and swim area were tons of fun for the kids. There were both shallow and deep areas. Kids enjoyed fishing at the campsite.

This was a very unpleasant stay due to the other campground guests' dogs that produced incessant and unbelievably loud screams. They were a couple campsites down from me on either side and it absolutely ruined my experience. Why bring your dog and make them miserable? Happy and relaxed dogs don't make those kind of sounds for hours upon hours. I left early, because of the other guests. Please don't be selfish. If your dog doesn't enjoy it, and you don't respect your neighbors, then just stay home.

We love Lake Chatuge and have enjoyed camping there! The host is very friendly and we were very happy with that! Our camp site, A22 was not exactly what we expected as the neighboring campsite is directly in front of our camper door! Too close! This would be ok for booking together but not for two separate parties! Overall we had a great weekend!

Campground was great, solar worked well in trailer so we were very comfortable. Cell service was very good. The only downside was the weather - rain every day! But that is expected in the spring in the mountains. Looking forward to next trip to JR, and can then experience the bike trails and kayaking.

Lovely site, close enough to the facilities without being right on top of them. Has good access to the water, a bit of a slope, but nothing that would prevent launching an SUP or kayak. 4-5 steps down to picnic table/firepit area. Only problem was the restrooms running out of toilet paper for about a day, but it's probably staffing issues. BYOTP!
Love the serenity of this place!

Favorite campgrounds! We love the incredible views and access to the trails. The sites are level, generously sized, and they aren’t on top of each other.
