What Guests Are Saying
Sowell Creek is praised for its friendly staff, cleanliness, and beautiful lake views, making it a favorite spot for families and friends. Many guests highlight the peaceful atmosphere and well-maintained facilities, with positive experiences during multiple visits. However, some concerns were raised about low-hanging tree branches and occasional electrical issues, but these did not significantly detract from the overall enjoyment of the stay.

Always love camping in Sowell Creek, it would be nice to find a way to have less grass burs. Also stop folks from going through and renting spot 54 just on Saturdays so if they change their minds, they aren't out a lot of money. I know you can see who they are, and this keeps others who really want to camp there as well from being able too. I also would love to see loop 5 stay open till the end of October and maybe into November. It has most of the 50 amps and it is close to the water that is safe for children.

If you are looking for a nice quiet place to spend some time and recharge Sowell Creek is a great place to camp, it's nice and people are respectful when camping down here. The spots a spaced out really nicely so you don't have someone 5 ft from your site. I have been here many times over the years and still enjoy spending time here.
