    All Seasons RV Park

    In and out

    We arrived around 9pm and left at 9am. I had booked at 4pm but they never emailed me a spot number nor left me a paper registration. I called them at 9pm and they answered. Very impressed. Not impressed with lot size. I have never seen a lot where both campers didnt have room to out out their awnings. Very tight. Otherwise fine.

    Marion Cove

    Lakeshore Primitive Camping

    There are a couple sites that you can park right next to with covered picnic tables and lots of tent only sites that are an easy walk. The reservoir is huge and accommodates boating, fishing, and swimming. It's reasonable priced at $10 per night. Reservations can be made up to 4 days in advance. #5 & #6 are right next to each other and would make a great area for larger groups. Check out Marion Cove on Recreation.gov for reservation details. Happy camping!

    Lake Afton Park

    Nice little spot

    Camped here a couple of times, small lake that in the heat of summer has bad algea bloom. Use to have drag boat races here not sure if they do any more. I will visit it again.

    East Shore Camping Area — Cheney State Park

    100s of spots

    Many spots to choose from, the primitive area is where i like to be. Right on the water. Every area has a camp host and electrical spots have wifi that is actually good

    Awsome fishing lake, wild bison a mile or 2 down the road. Very nice camp spots with electrical hookups up on a hill and primitive down by the water.
