Fenton Self-Service Campground

Some of the sites were messy with garbage and debris of inconsiderate campers or possibly people just pulling through. Some of the fire pits and concrete tables were broken. Vault toilet was fine, and was serviced while we were there. Several of the lots weren’t level. You can hear cars and vehicles on the highway and crossing the bridge throughout the day and night. It bothered my light sleeping husband. The campsites are gravel but there were a lot of very sharp, large rocks. We had a footprint under our tent, plus foam yoga mats to line the tent floor and it was still extremely uncomfortable to stand or kneel on the tent floor. Fortunately, we had cots for the kids and an air mattress. We walked the bridge at sunrise which was a beautiful view. It was $25 for one night, and we paid less for a better full service campground.

I was excited to see that one of my favorite areas to go swimming around had campgrounds and trails as well! The campgrounds are well taken care of and have picnic tables, fire pits and electric access! We didn’t have direct water though on our site!

There is plenty of room at each site and it’s close to several trails and the boat dock were you can splash around. The nearest bathroom is about a 1/2 mile away from the campgrounds, as well as a water facet. Also it’s a great area for a family because of the huge pavilion just a hundred feet outside the grounds!

There’s an honors system for payment so make sure to pay your site!
