Good campground
Left Godfrey bridge CG for this one due to ticks and had no issues. Very beautiful and good mix of open and secluded sites.
Typical, Well maintained campsite in Wharton State Forest
Bodine Field is one of several camping locations within Wharton State Forest.
I am writing this review over a year after our stay so forgive me if the details are lacking.
We set in for an overnight stay in early April 2022. My daughter was scheduled to have major back surgery in May which effectively shut down out summer camping options for 2022.
Once we arrived at the site we quickly realized we were some of the only brave souls that chose to be outdoors in early April. It was cold and rainy the entire day and did not get better when the evening arrived.
We had a great time despite the cold and the rain. I would highly recommend this campsite location!
On River
Only one at Bodine Campground. Clean site along River. Quiet and calm.
Very rustic and secluded
Very rustic and secluded, no showers/running water. Outhouses all around the campground. Most of the campsites are kind of on top of each other besides a few and most of the group sites. Best during the week when not very many campers/ groups are around.

Stay home, it’ll be quieter
Beautiful remote location w minimal amenities but 3 boy scout troops of screaming children didn’t make it enjoyable.
Fun group site
Originally it was very hard to first locate the site, I believe it is on google maps since we went last, the welcome center will also give you coordinates to get there. The turn off is only labeled in one direction so keep an eye on both sides of the signs. The campsites are semi close together. Very sandy area. There is a little river area within the site which is fun. The composting outhouse toilets are not great. Overall was a fun weekend trip. Outdoor shower at a general store down the road.
