Petit is one of our favorite places to camp. Unfortunately, our last stay for poker run weekend was a little disappointing. The grass & weeds were extremely high, an enormous amount of biting ants all over the concrete pads & trash dumpster was overflowing and piled around it. It was sad to see such a normally beautiful place in such condition. On a positive note, the camp hosts were super friendly!

Petit Bay has become our home campground, it's always clean and the showers are wonderful! The staff is great and very helpful. We are excited for our next stay.

Enjoyed our stay - great park…but when we came in signage was down for park 2 (it had been repaired before we left) and we ended up going towards marina and had to make a u-turn, then couldn’t make the turn into camp area 2 so had to make another u-turn in front of entry to area 1 and hit some low limbs as well as traffic coming & going that didn’t want to stop. Also, road coming in (county road) needs a lot of limbs trimmed and some limbs in road circling to the dump station. There was never anyone @ the ‘office’ to check in with but pretty sure someone in a cart verified the right trailer was in the right spot -

Great campground with a new Marina that has excellent Pizza and drinks ! Beware one side of the campsite which is the arm to the east is nicer. The one closest to Goat Island and the open lake!

They have the newest marina on the lake. The campsites are varied and mostly nice.. the inner loop is much nicer than the one on the west side of their marina. The side closest to the main body of water.

Petite bay has started to seem like the forgotten sister. No water at the sights. The same holes have been in the bathroom wall for several years now. Come on guys, do your job. We pay to stay there fix it

The campsite itself was clean and functional. The camphor was friendly and even passed out Frisbee to kids on July 4th. The bathrooms in campsite 1 are in serious need of repairs though. The locks are broken off stalls, the toilet leaked water into floor and wasn't mounted to the ground. The non plumbed bathroom door wouldn't shut properly.
