We have stayed at Tompkins a few times now, and always have a great time. One of the best designed campgounds we have been to.
This last visit our son stayed in a different site, (tent site) and joined us for meals. Nice to spend time with family and such a great environment. Sitting by the campfire and watching the water,
We will book for next year again.

Very nice site. Wide, clean and very quiet. Would have no problem going there again and have recommended to other campers in my family.

Always a good time staying here. Every site has plenty of room and black topped. Great Kayaking on this large lake.

I stayed 7 nights in the Cove Loop and had a very good experience. Bathrooms and showers outdated but clean. Entire campground seems well kept and clean. Campground hosts seem attentive and readily available. Quite crowded on the weekend, but still fine, sparsely populated weekdays. Good for road cycling around the lake. Light traffic and wide shoulders, about a 14-mile loop. No cell phone coverage in the campground, but I did have cell phone coverage near the swimming area and boat launch, I had coverage every day, had to reboot phone a few times to get it, but other than that access to texts, internet, and calls. (Consumer cellular, AT & T sim card)
