The campground is in a nice location next to the water. Great spot for the price. Has bathrooms, showers, lake access across the entirety of the campground, and a playground. Site 11 is perfect shade next to the water. Lots of bird watching decks.

The road in heads down into the campground and it is a very good paved road. There are several sites on the water. Grab a spot and spend a couple of weeks enjoying life. There are some pull thru's. If you enjoy the quiet and intimate this is for you.

TravelerPerfect spot on the water
This campground is quiet and beautiful with large spaces, perfect for our big RV set up. They offer full hook ups. Our campsite (22) overlooks the water, and the playground which is perfect for our young family. It has a great size of gravel area with picnic table, barbecue, and fire pit. The bathrooms and showers are clean. The campground host was kind and helpful. Can’t beat this for the price! We might stay a few extra days.
RangerMillwood Lake
The lake is huge and we wished we had a big boat to explore it with. Nice little campground, shady and green, with rather spread out sites and great docks. There were lots of bird watchers during our trip in May but I forget what they were looking for LOL.
