Birch Cove is a well-maintained and clean campground, appreciated for its quiet atmosphere and modern restrooms. Many visitors enjoyed the spacious campsites, proximity to the lake, and friendly, helpful staff, particularly the attentive camp host. Some areas for improvement include updating electrical hookups and providing closer water sources at certain sites, but overall, guests have consistently had enjoyable experiences and expressed a desire to return.

Had a wonderful time at the lake. By Sunday afternoon, we had the lake to ourselves!

We love how the lake isn’t overly crowded. Our favorite campsite is 87 because it is right there at the water. We can let our kids swim whenever they want and our boat is tied up right there at our campsite also.
There are only 2 things we think needs to be upgraded, • campsite 87 needs a water spicket closer to it. It takes almost 200’ of garden hose to reach to hook up our motorhome. • not only this campsite but a lot of the other sites that have hookups for motorhomes and trailers could use a 50 amp service.
Thank you

Host was great, he was off when we arrived, we had an issue with turning on the water and he came right down to help. If you stay at spot 50. You will need a long water hose, 50 ft hose will not be enough, the closest spout is on 48.
Also, the guest before us left the site nasty. There was broken glass and cigarette butts everywhere, burnt tent supplies in the fire pit.
I did clean up after them and ourselves as there's tons of wildlife.
Picnic table stays in the sun all day until evening, thankfully we brought lots of tarps.
Spot is kind of stagnant, would be best to bring fans if you're camping in the summer.
Other than that, its very pretty, bathroom isn't terribly far.

Don't feed the squirrels!
I had no idea they would chew through a tent to get bread but I found out the hard way they definitely will!
I've camped here a few time and love this area. Host and volunteers are friendly and helpful.
Highly recommend

Site was great other than having no water at site. Had to run hose across road for water. The dock was close and good for fishing. I will come back.

The location itself of our campsite was great. Small walk to the bathrooms and to the lake. Very shaded! The area around wasn’t very level for a tent but we made it work. Also, the electric hookup was at the bottom of the campsite so make sure to bring an extra extension cord if you need the power
