We love camping at Nancy's. The only thing that needs attention is toilet paper needs filled twice a day in peak season

It is a beautiful location. However, one group decided to have a drinking party. They were asked to settle down around 11. We could still hear them but it was alright. Then at about midnight, someone decided to leave the party with their girl? And one of his buddies couldn't handle that. He started yelling Jacob! It get alot worse as they yelled back and forth about their prowness with girls and having sex in the boat instead of the woods. But here's why it gets a 1 star. The next day, I called the ranger station to discuss the situation. They didn't ask me any questions, they simply said, "We know Nancy's has become quite the party spot. The second shift rangers are already checking it as late as they can." So just a heads up, if I had children I would not book this campground.

Stayed at Nancy's for a week over the 4th of July holiday. The new bathrooms are very nice. On a busy weekend like the 4th requires more than 3 rolls in each bathroom. The old bathrooms had 6 rolls per bathroom. Also the bathrooms should be unisex so that one doesn't remain empty when it is needed. I would of rated higher but there was a group of men setting off fireworks for 2 nights. Even when the rangers were there. This transpired for 3 nights with no fines or expulsion from the campsite.

We have used this campsite several times and love it. It’s a very peaceful and relaxing location. The only negative is the fact that potable water isn’t available onsite,so bring your own or plan to ride up the lake to 7 points

Great location. Clean bathrooms. The park ranger was super nice and a resource of information on the history of the lake, towns, fishing, and much much more. Looking forward to this years many visits.

Never a bad experience. The occasional late night, noisy arrival. But that doesn't bother me. I love the place. Fishing, boating, campfire food. Quality time...no need to say anything else.

Really nice off season. My site was in the cove right in front of the water. That was great for boating and fishing. Off season is the way to go. The first night, there were only 3 sites occupied. The next night had about a dozen but the campground was still pretty empty. My only complaint is the rest rooms. They were unusable, they smelt so bad. I could not imagine what they smell like in the heat of the summer with a full campground.

I really love coming here to camp, it would be nice if there was potable water on site but that's a small price to pay for the seclusion you get from a boat only access campground
