Such a wonderful camp host host signed me in. I said what I’d like for a spot, never being there before. She put us in the greatest camp site.

We tent camped at McFadden for 2 nights to snag paddle fish below the dam. This was a wonderful experience for me and the kids. The campground was nice and all of the sites have plenty of room and level ground for tents. The vault toilet was probably the cleanest I have ever been in. It was hot and there is plenty of shade at all but one of the sites. My only negative note is there being no fish cleaning station. This is a popular paddle fish spot and it really surprised me that I could not find a cleaning station.

Nice quiet campground. The only drawback is it didn't have it's own dump station. We had to drive 15 minutes to dump our black tank.

We like the convenient proximity to boat ramp and marina. The bathrooms were clean as were the campgrounds. The water hydrant at campsite number 2 had a leak when hooked up to the camper that needs repaired. Would like to see a shower and dump station installed on the facility. Especially with the road over the dam closed it's a 20-to-30-minute drive to a dump station. Overall, we liked the campground and would stay there again.
