The gate volunteer at Washunga Bay, Kaw Lake was wonderful. Rex never failed to smile and wave at anyone and he also had a very good knowledge of the campgrounds and surrounding area (where to get ice, gas and watch the fireworks show). He always had time to listen to any child tell him about their fishing or tubing experience. He kept the wind-swept trash picked up. Our biggest concern in the lack of handicapped access. Yes, there is a great "outhouse" type of toilet really easy for the handicapped with wheelchairs or mobile scooters but there are no showers in Washunga Bay that have room for a shower chair or even a wheelchair. As a government facility it is very lacking in this area. We drove our 93 year old parents over to Sarge Creek so they could get a shower and feel safe by using their shower chair. The lady at the gate at first was not going to allow us in because she said we could not use facilities at Sarge Creek. This did upset my Dad, not for himself, but for his wife. Our biggest concern is the lack of complete facilities for the handicapped. Grab bars are not enough!

The campgrounds at Washunga are always clean and well kept, as well are the restrooms. The boat ramp is sufficient for backing all types of boats and is well protected from strong north or south winds. We highly recommend Washunga Bay!

Perfect place to stay if you want to fish Kaw Lake. One of the busiest boat docks on the lake. They are upgrading some of the electrical service to offer 50 amp for larger rigs. Sites are large enough to accommodate your boat. Hate keeper is friendly and maintains the area well. This is the place we always go when camping at Kaw Lake.

One of the best camping experiences we have had in quite some time. The camp host (Rex) was very nice and did an incredible job keeping the sites clean as well as the bathrooms. He visited with us and made us aware of things to see and do while on the lake and where we could take our dogs swimming . The only bad thing I can think of is the roads around the sites are in need of repair. Above average campground overall!
