What Guests Are Saying
Gerald Freeman Campground is a beautiful and peaceful destination, well-loved for its family-friendly atmosphere, clean facilities, and scenic surroundings, including easy access to water for fishing and kayaking. Many campers appreciate the relaxed environment and friendly staff, making it a favorite spot for repeat visitors. However, there are some concerns about the maintenance of the grass and bathhouses, as well as the need for better Wi-Fi and more full hook-up sites.

One of the most peaceful places I have ever stayed. This was an overnight stop for us but a great disconnect from the hostel and bustle

This one of our favorite campgrounds. The grass was mowed and the grounds were cleaned daily. Couldn’t have asked for a better trip minus some rain.

Camped in site next to River with full hook ups. Site was paved and relatively flat. Sites are large. Bring kayak’s for the River. There is a beach on the lake about 11 miles from Freeman. No or limited cell phone service. I have AT&T. Lots of area to walk. Walked dogs everyday.
