VerifiedJune 8, 2022 • Stayed at: 59, Loop: Dale Hollow Damsite
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.

It doesn't get any better when the weather is hot than camping under Dale Hollow Dam next to the Obey River ! Natures way of air conditioned camping. Lots of big trees for plenty of shade. I have camped their with temps in the upper 90's. We just went down to the river boat ramp with our chairs and stuck our legs in the water. That water when the dam is generating is cold, I mean turn your feet blue fast !

This is one of our favorite camping spots. We really enjoy the hiking trail and walking around the campground. The host was really nice and courteous.
