County-managed Louie P. Gartner RA sits on the shores of Big Hill Lake, providing hookup sites for RVs and tent campers. The campground features electrical and water connections, making it accessible for quick getaways from nearby towns. One reviewer notes the on-site disc golf course adds recreational variety beyond the lake activities.
Big Hill Lake offers fishing opportunities directly from the camping area. For campers exploring beyond this lakeside spot, campgrounds just outside Cherryvale provide additional options in the region.
