There was only one site still available when we made reservations, so I was nervous that there was something wrong with the site. I was wrong, it was perfect! The leaves were changing, which is what we had hoped for. We only made it through one night due to rain and a poorly designed tent, and I was so sad because the first night was great. We hiked the main loop of the hiking trails and it was beautiful with lots of different trees to identify. Definitely would go back and try to reserve a site along the water (and bring our tents that don't leak!). There was a group of loud, drunk people at a campsite, and a group of people at the trailhead using language not appropriate for my kids to be hearing, but there'll be stupid people no matter where you go, and I can't fault the campgrounds for that.

Overall we had a fantastic stay at Jackrabbit. We camped in Loop C with a travel trailer. Site was clean and we had views, plenty of shade and a short walk to the lake. Leaves were in peak color. The only negative was that the fire ring and the picnic table at the site were on the opposite side of the camper door and awning so it was a little inconvenient. Seems like they could have put the trailer pad where the table and ring were and visa verse. Most RV sites are on loops A and B with loop C mostly tent pads.Great trails for mountain biking and easy access with the connector trail from the campground. We had a great trip and will be returning next year but with our trailer looking for a site in loop B.

Great camping next to a fun set of bike trails. Would be great if they could add more mileage.

Fall was beautiful, the campgrounds were wonderfully quiet because we stayed Sunday through Wednesday! The bike trails are fabulous and the camp hosts do a great job too!

It was very clean and the spots were nice. The camp hosts were great. We had an incident that required medical attention and they were great about the whole thing. I really appreciate their help. There wasn’t soap in the bathrooms, which I found odd but we just used our own back at the site.

Our camp host was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the area and had great recommendations for site-seeing. The campground was very quiet, well-maintained and clean. Our cell phone carrier is Consumer Cellular and we had great reception. The campsites are well-spaced and spacious. We are looking forward to our next visit. Thank you.
