What Guests Are Saying

Lepage Park offers a pleasant camping experience with well-maintained facilities, friendly staff, and scenic views along the river. While some guests noted issues like gravel sites instead of grass and occasional water outages, the overall cleanliness and safety of the park were appreciated. It's a convenient stop for travelers, although nearby noise from traffic and trains can be a minor drawback.

Unable to shut off outside faucet causing extensive flooding in our motor home. Our family finally ID'd the problem after gallons of water spewed inside and leaked to storage area under floor. We are uncertain if this will cause permanent damage that has to be repaired. Watching it closely. It was some time before help came and fixed the faucet.. Our kids unhooked hose from motor home and faucet ran out our hose into empty neighboring space.. That being said, spaces were clean. Bathrooms well kept. Park workers friendly and accommodating. So then our family prepared to leave and their faucet, in their space, would not turn off as well. They zip tied the hose but had to leave and take hose with them. Leaving water running all over space.

What a lovely park! This was our first time camping here, and we really enjoyed our time. The campground and park are lovely, clean, and well-maintained. The staff person (I'm so so sorry I forgot her name) is kind and responsive. She obviously goes above and beyond and this is clearly reflected in the quality of her work. We absolutely would stay again.
