Decent state park hosted by always friendly staff.  Large swim beach with bath house and a few small playgrounds scattered throughout. several pavilions that can be reserved for parties. 4 camping sections with power and water, plus a primitive area.  only about half have sewer, and even less have 50amp service.  sewer sites are near the front of the campground, and one dump station near the back.

campsite sizes vary, and it can be difficult to find a site for larger campers.  utility connections aren't always in the most appropriate spot (often need water hose or power cable of 25ft+)  most sites do offer plenty of shade or a view of the lake.

Great park just needs a little updating

Lake Lurleen is a beautiful, well kept place to camp. Bathrooms are exceptionally clean. The camp sites are big and well maintained. The only draw back was if you are camped at the bottom and have to do the hill climb in the dark to the rest room.

Beautiful

My only complaint about lake lurleen is the lack of cell service- but do you need that when camping!? Bathrooms are older, best well kept for public bathrooms. We love the swim area and it’s always clean. They have a few small parks for kids, walking and bike trails, paddle boats, boat ramps, and ducks! Even through we live close by we enjoy spending our weekends here when we can! 

One of our favorites!

This is one of my family’s favorite parks. Some great waterfront spots available with full hookups, but book early. New online state system used to make reservations and get the spot you want. Clean beach, boat rentals and clean bath houses. This park gets full in the fall with campers and people who come down for the football games. Playgrounds for the kids and plenty of foot trails. 

Great, clean state park 

Good week end get away campground.  improvements have been made.  Easy access to city

Good fishing

Cell/Wifi non existent. Office staff and rangers friendly and helpful. 

Camping w grands

We stayed at a great waterfront site, which was amazing, and had full hookups. (Although it did get full sun in the afternoons, which was warm) Some of the other sites are W/E only and some are not as great.  The park buildings and docks are a bit dated, but the staff was very nice.  The lake is small and I enjoyed using a stand up paddle board.  We will be back because of the bike trails... already have a reservation!  Sites B37 and B35 are a bit more shady.  Absolutely no AT&amp;T service.

Nice lake, great mountain bike/hiking trails

Although we didn’t get a chance to stay the night here on the most recent visit we had an incredible time exploring the lake and beach areas. We also had a chance to wander around the camping area and check out what is available. The lake itself is not enormous but perfect for those who prefer a quiet space to paddle and swim. There are plenty of nooks and crannies to explore and we even found some wild blueberries growing along the banks. The beachfront is kept very clean and there was plenty of space for everyone who was there to enjoy. The bathrooms were also nice and there were several small shaded picnic areas you can use. Though I would suggest getting one early since more were being used by the time we wanted to eat lunch. Overall, the camping area looked nice and provides very easy access to the lake. It is also divided up into multiple areas that are more set up for either tents or RVs.

Great lakeside beach

Overall, this is a very nice and convenient campground. We really enjoyed the beach area and the trails. Lots of mountain bikers throughout the weekend. It did have shower houses but we did not use any because we lucked out and got a full hook up site I will say most of the sites are not level, I have some broken concrete and need some TLC. We stayed in the B loop and loves the proximity to the playground and beach. Seems like there could have been numerous full-time residents staying in Loop A.
