The weather was perfect. The folks at the check-in were very friendly and helpful. The camp host was very hospitable. The campsite was clean, ready and suited our needs perfectly. The lake and surrounding area were beautiful. We will definitely return!

We had a wonderful time during our time at Lake Sherwood. We have been camping there for about 30 years and have always loved it there.

Everything was good except site 97 was very difficult to get our camper out, I believe it should be tent only.

It would be nice to have group activities, for example bingo, evening movies, horseshoe competition, cornhole competition and such things as this. We were camping, just as a couple, with no other family, something like this would have been nice.

Very nice campground. Would be perfect if it had electric hook ups and cell service. Great place if you want to get away and be off grid. Extremely peaceful.
