  • Limited Amenities: Not all campgrounds have extensive amenities. A visitor at Moraine View State Recreational Area mentioned, “The outhouse was in really rough shape--looked like it hadn't been swept out or hosed down for awhile.”

Tips for camping with families:

  • Plan for Dump Stations: Be aware of where the dump stations are located. A camper at Clinton Lake State Recreation Area shared, “There’s only one dump station, which seemed odd considering that there’s at least 3 campgrounds.”
