We have had our boat on a slip here for years and are very lucky! We’ve met some very friendly people here and made great memories. Facilities are always clean and there is plenty of parking, even on the busiest days. Such a plus that you have a gas dock! Hoping to make many more memories here for years to come.

Love it.. Enjoy it every time. You can dock your boat and leave it in the water for a fee or take it out.

Wilsonville is a nice little family RV/camper spot with great lake access and a park for the kids. It's on a nice walking trailer that provides nice views of the lake.

Absolutely no pets, no exceptions…not even for a boat launch. Good luck getting someone to answer the phone or return messages. Nice RV camp if you preferrer long term camping with your pets left at home. Lots of seasonal campers taking advantage of the great sites…good luck finding employees to help locate empty sites. Thank goodness for a nice camper who answered questions we had about the reservation process after hours. Beautiful view of the lake but being uncertain about reservations in the off-season isn’t worth the drive or hassle to find a spot last minute. I’m sure the no dog/no pet policy goes back several years to an unfortunate accident that involved a heavy lawsuit. Or the “lady” at the desk is just a very unhappy, unpleasant, and unpopular person. She was sharp tongued and very short with the few men paying for campsites and boat launches. Save yourself the money and drive down the road to launch your boat WITH your dog, at the free public boat lunch to avoid the negativity from NELLY at the office. Since we travel most of the time with our dogs, we probably won’t come back.
