What Guests Are Saying

Gerald Freeman Campground offers a beautiful, family-friendly environment with spacious, clean campsites, many located right by the river, ideal for activities like kayaking and fishing. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the campground is well-maintained, providing a peaceful retreat away from urban noise. However, there are some downsides, including limited cell service, outdated bathhouses, and occasional maintenance issues like long grass and trash overflow during peak times.

Was able to get a camp site late Friday evening on Labor Day weekend. Camp site was large pull through with large concrete slab on the lake. The site only had electric but by using the nice and clean bathhouse our 4 day stay was great.

I loved it even though we were told our site was a full hook up and it ended up being just electric.

It’s a very clean and beautiful

Long windy road to get there but a nice site if you want to disconnect. No cell service or internet. Grounds were well kept but when mowed grass was all over the RV.
