Beautifully maintained grounds on this Army Corps of Engineers property. Site (17) was easily accessed by our 34 foot trailer and provided some privacy from neighboring sites. Water filling station at check-in and easy to access dump station on exit made this a great experience. Bring firewood and any necessities as stores are about an hour away. There is a very small shop in Elk Garden that has firewood bundles ($4.50) and very minimal other stuff (good ice cream by the container). Access to the lake was limited to the boat launch due to Covid, but we plan to return when Shaw beach reopens. Music in the park got a little loud but 10pm quiet hours were adhered to.

The camp sites are secluded from each other.

Another great camping trip at Robert Craig and Jennings. Not only were the staff helpful and accommodating, the other campers were respectful and followed quiet times and other rules. RECOMMEND!

We had a great time. The improvements to the Sunset Trail were a great surprise and welcoming. [The new swing at the overlook]

Love the campground we use it 2 or 3 times a season. We would use it more often if you would up grade the sites with water and sewage. One sewage dumpster is not adequate..

A very friendly and helpful staff. It's has clean bathrooms, showers, individual sites, and the campground as a whole. Sites are too close, but that's a design flaw.
