i truly enjoy staying at pat mayse lake campgrounds,its always a wonderful experience,i,ve never met a camper that did not feel the same,i usually stay at pat mayse west but the east side campgrounds as well as sanders cove offer excellent camp sites as well.i camp in a tent but at my age i need electric for various electronics that need charging occasionally such as my phone,tablet and laptop for editing photos,the folks with rv's have access to electricity as well,and the water is excellent to drink.and my phone gets 5 bars of reception which is another plus,like i've said i can't compliment the parks accommodations enough,the grounds are kept in great shape by the parks lawn crews but i,ve only encountered them once in six or seven times camping out,good timing i guess,i usually stay for the full two weeks and always regret having to leave,i hope this review is helpful and enjoy camping wherever you are,i do at age 72 and hope to keep camping as long as this body is able.sincerely,john...ps,the views of the lake are spectacular,the fishing great and its a birders paradise,seriously i spotted some sand hill cranes on their migration back to canada,they stopped at the lake for a few days,really something.
