I don’t know what is going on but they are really letting this campground fall apart. It seems like they are spending all the money on Canadian and completely neglecting Big Bend. It’s just really sad.

September is a great time of year to camp at Canton Lake. The weather was beautiful, no wind, moderate temperatures, and not that many people. I camped alone and slept in my truck. The bathhouse was clean. I enjoyed the owls talking to one another during the night. I heartily recommend you try Canton Lake the next time you're looking for someplace to go not too far from where you live.

Our family had a wonderful relaxing time at campsite A34. It would be an added blessing if there were shelters over the picnic table.

A9 is a great spot for tent camping. It helps keep you out of the wind and was kinda secluded. There was a large red ant den with lots of action, but thankfully they didn't get into our stuff. Also the raccoons were after our food! They opened our tote and tried to take our marshmallows! There's a bathroom not far; It is a porter pot. The upper bathrooms by the park were kept clean. The frisbee golf course was fun. We plan to stay in this spot again!

My stay at Big Bend Campground was perfect. It's a beautiful location on a beautiful lake. I had lots of privacy as there were only 2 other parties there. The shower was wonderful and nice clean toilets except for the spiders! I bet it's a booming place in the summer!

Lovely campground. I just stayed overnight on the way home from a long trip but would've been happy to stay longer, a little earlier in the season. My stay was at the end of the season and the comfort station was closed, so that was disappointing though not entirely unexpected.
