I've been coming here since I was a young child. I was very surprised to see that maintenance of the property is so poor. Several of the bridges on the walking trail need immediate attention, as does the pavement. There are docks wich are not accessible and falling into the river. Insulation has been installed in all bathouses, restricting airflow and creating saunas for bathrooms. Showers were out of order and missing shower heads. It was really sad to see one of my favorite places to visit not being kept up. I hope this changes soon.

This park is amazing! We love how the campsites aren’t real close to each other. There’s great shade throughout the park. We enjoyed the hiking trail and my kids loved the volleyball court. We will definitely camp here again!

This was our first time to Dale Hollow Damsite and it did not disappoint. We got to tour the fish hatchery and that was really cool. The facilities are clean and the staff are super friendly. We will be back.

Nice campground with the facilities well taken care of. If you like fishing or other water recreation this is a good campground for you.

weather was perfect, family memories, bathrooms clean and campsite clean. Lot of dogs barking near our campsite off and on thru out the day and late evening. Too much barking! We love DOGS! All the basic campground was good, but the walkways and entrance stairs to the water were over run with poison ivy, sumac and other weeds that would provide ticks and chiggers if used. That's the first time we remember them being neglected & most were similar to the one behind our campsite. Most of our experience was positive this year and the management was perfect...........very helpful...............

Wonderfully situated campground with easy access to travel lanes. Campsites are large, level and clean. Access to each site is made easy by a well-designed network of drive paths. Plenty of trees for shade.
We were surprised at how well the Wifi worked.
What could be improved are the bathrooms. They are clean, but dated. The showers were OK; privacy assured by a door opening to the change area, separated by a curtain to the shower area
What REALLY pleased us was a refund we received because we had to leave a day early. One of our puppers wasn't doing well; we wanted to get Hanshi home in case his condition worsened. We kind of said "oh well, a day paid and lost," but then received an e-mail about the refund. That was surprising and guarantees our return.
