Canton is a great place to camp! we stayed in Big Bend area. It's clean and rv sites were easily accessed. The only down side was that there was no access to get in the water unless you want to the boat ramp. Big rocks line the shoreline, which I understand.

I absolutely love staying at Big Bend! It is clean, with plenty of space between lots. I wish they would add picnic table covers to the spots that don’t have them, but I have a great experience every time I camp there.

Great area right at the edge of the lake.
Very shaded and quiet. Adequate shower house and bathroom and boat ramp at the end of the road. Can’t wait to go back!
