The park is incredibly beautiful, and well taken care of, you won't find better views to wake up to when your camping.

Our family has been going to Horseshoe Point Campground on Phillpot Lake.every summer for many years. We continue to be in disbelief that the same park attendants are there, summering here from Florida. I am astonished they keep getting invited back. We find them not the easiest to deal with, ornery, and in general not too happy with the world. I wish you might find another couple to be the hosts.

Overall we thought this campground was pretty nice. It does not have any trails for hiking or taking a walk down to the lake but that seems to be typical for lake campgrounds. This is important to us since our dogs travel with us. Some of the sites had great views of the lake and the bathrooms were pretty nice. We have a hotspot (sprint) with antennas that we use for internet, it took a little time but we eventually found how to hold our arms so that we got a couple of bars and we were able to stream a little tv. If you don't have plans to do a lot water activities you might be a little bored.
