B14 was a great campsite! Close to the bathroom and receptacles. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked with toilet paper and hand soap. Campsites were clean. Overall a wonderful experience.

Camp hosts were good and efficient at check in, and very nice people. Sites are being kept mowed fairly well despite all the rain. Good to see someone trimming trees so our campers don't hit them when trying to park, but need to keep going because there are a lot more to do.

I love this campground have been coming for over 40 yrs. I will say it is time for the restrooms to update their handicap access. In both A and B Sites.

We have camped here for years and love that they keep sites clean and they are very spacious. The public bathrooms are well kept and easily accessible. Well groomed grass and easy access to the water.

Site was flat. No covering over picnic table, but plenty of tree cover.

We always have a good time camping at Canton. Big Bend and Canadian are both nice campgrounds.
