Unfortunately they were doing brushwork on the OHV trails we were using for mountain bicycling and lots of thorny branches on the trails, not good for our tires. And the lake was drained due to broken dam so the lakeview trail was not as scenic. On the upside, campground and bathrooms were clean, showers hot, paved campground site was level, easy backin, quiet and relaxing. Lower bathroom had a sink, but no soap or hand sanitizer. Lower men’s shower head sprayed across the room and could not be adjusted manually, needs a tool adjustment. Upper bathrooms good.

Some of the cleanest bathrooms I've ever experienced, and I've camped at quite a few locations across the country. Great hosts, super friendly and helpful. Loved the site and the proximity to the trails. This is my second visit to Iron Ridge and I plan to go back many times in the future

This campground is small, but the spots are well arranged so they each feel secluded. There are flush toilets and hot showers. The camp hosts are fantastic.

Sites are too small and close together, it would be better if they were spaced out like Army Camp. It did not matter so much because I was the only one there midweek late September. Nice quiet. It would be great if there was a trail nearby.

As always, Lake Vesuvius, Iron Ridge was a great week away and very relaxing. The facilities were excellent and well maintained.

Was my first time visiting this park and I was in site 31. Site was small and most of it is on a hill but it was pretty secluded so that was nice. Bathroom was very clean and hiking trails were great.

Great Campsites!
Lots of trees, good privacy and clean restrooms.
Only improvements I would like to see are more showers.

Nice quiet campground, sites not stacked on top of each other. Enjoyed kayaking around the lake. Will return.
