What Guests Are Saying

Mallard Marsh Campground is a favorite for its beautiful, peaceful setting near the lake, spacious campsites, and well-maintained facilities. While the campground can get crowded and noise levels may rise, especially from camp host generators, many visitors appreciate the tranquil atmosphere and lovely views. Some amenities, like flush toilets and running water, are inaccurately advertised, but overall, the campground offers a great experience for campers.

We love this campground because it is remote and we have always found it mostly empty. Wonderful kayaking lake. But it is not for everybody with no cell reception, no water, and vault toilets.

Site was large with a pull thru for our tent trailer. Sites were spaced a nice distance apart so we never felt crowded. We found a short trail to Hosmer Lake so we could launch our kayaks without having to drive to the main boat launch. Bringing our own water wasn't as bad as we thought it would be. We really loved this place and will definitely return.
