What Guests Are Saying

Brooklyn Lake Campground offers a beautiful and clean setting with excellent hiking and fishing opportunities, complemented by knowledgeable and friendly camp hosts. While it can be busy due to nearby trailheads and some sites have limited lake views, the overall facilities are well-maintained, and the campground is accessible and quiet. Some visitors noted a need for improved water access and the presence of private cabins limiting lake access, but the positive experiences far outweigh the negatives.

The campground was overall very nice. The campsites offered good picnic tables and were reasonably spaced apart. There are several hiking trails and several lakes to fish at. The outhouses were very well maintained with a good supply of toilet paper and hand sanitizer. While there were water pumps outside the outhouses, you really had to put a lot of muscle power to get water flowing. I was unable to do this at all. Having a better method would be helpful and give more accessibility to those who want/need water at the site. I would have appreciated an electrical hook up (even at an additional cost).

This campground could use some tlc and its very busy around there because of 2 trailheads that basically start right at the campground entrance. There are only a few sites that have lake views so choose carefully.
