A hidden gem, sites were clean, washer and dryer a bonus. Pulled a 42 ft rig in and out with no issue. It is a bit away from civilization so come prepared or plan on a 30 minute trip to the IGA. We had great access to the lake! Will be back.

Even though it was late in the season (we stayed to the very end of park season), it was 2 weeks of true relaxation. The campground was quiet yet busy with campers, swimmers, boaters and pets. We have been camping here for over fifty years, we are never disappointed. If you are looking for game rooms, putt putt, swimming pool restaurants etc this is not the place for you. This is camping at it’s best.

Our 5th year to return to the campground, everything is well taken care of, the addition of the AC in the shower house was a nice surprise. The volunteers are helpful and courteous

My husband has been going to Lillydale for over 40 years. It is very convenient to Willow Grove. The only thing, I have breathing problems and I wish other people would consider NOT burning firewood when it is 90 plus degrees outside.

The campsite itself is nice. Bathrooms/showers are clean. As someone that reads the fine print they seemed very accommodating and welcoming. I rented 3 campsites close together to accommodate my whole family for friday thru sunday. One group at one site decided to stay an extra day leaving Monday. Checkout is at 2pm but they also have day passes for $5 and they allow visitors to the campers for an additional charge. On the reservation itself it states that if you would like to stay a little longer to enjoy the lake they can tell you where to move your things. We had rented a jet ski and a boat until 430, so at noon we came back, packed up everything at 2 of the sites and moved our vehicles to the main parking lot with plenty of open room. We left the campsites 2 hours early to make sure we did not overstay our reservation. They came to look them over right away. We went back out on the lake to enjoy the rest of the time on our rentals. At EXACTLY 2pm I received a very angry phone call from a man at Lilydale stating that we MUST return IMMEDIATELY!! Check out is promptly at 2pm and we need to get our vehicles off of their property right now. I explained the situation to which he replied No Ma'am. Return IMMEDIATELY. So we did, in so causing us to completely change all of our plans and resulted in us returning the boat an hour late. We have been primitive camping at this lake for 30 years. This was our first year camping at a campground in our rv. It made me not want to do it again. That was absolutely ridiculous given it is all in writing on the website and I will be looking for other options going forward. We did our best to adhere to the rules however they choose when they feel like following them.
