Beautiful Waterfront Campground
The natural setting at this campground is absolutely beautiful. For $35, you can get a full-hookup site right by the water, which is a really good value. There’s even a small beach, adding to the relaxing atmosphere. Overall, the campground is peaceful, scenic, and a great place to unwind. The only downside is the bathhouse. We visited two different ones, and while they weren’t dirty, they were definitely showing their age and felt a bit worn down. A renovation would make a big difference. Other than that, this was a truly beautiful campground, and we really enjoyed our stay.

GuideBundick Lake Retreat and RV Park
On a downhill slide
This was obviously once a wonderful retreat and RV park that is sadly falling into serious decline through neglect. The setting is pretty and the lake good for fishing but all the facilities with the exception of the motel units are in serious disrepair and no longer look anything like the online photos. There is no onsite manager or even work camper although one of the long term rvers tries to assist visitors. The pool is milky due to lack of proper chemicals although the helpful tenant is trying to do what he can. A tree fell on the game room so it is locked and unusable. The miniature golf course is unusable due to lack of maintenance and mold. We were able to use the open air pavilion although the ladies room was unusable due to a broken toilet and was filthy. The children's playground is unsafe with broken equipment. There is a dining hall for retreats but I don't know what kind of condition it is in. The sewer system for the RV sites worked sporadically. One of the RV sites had foot deep ruts. There are several huge potholes in the road. We were lucky the grass was finally cut shortly before our rally group arrived. It is very sad that such a beautiful facility has been allowed to deteriorate like this.

"Beach" music & fun. Great place to visit
We love Lakeview! Country feel, away from the city. Man made beach (COLD but you get used to it), huge land balloon used as a giant trampoline, golf cart rentals, and weekend music. It has it all. Relax or enjoy doing things you love to do!

There's a lot of activity you can do!
The place is great! My family really enjoyed the amenities, we played pickleball a lot during our stay. There’s also mini golf, which the kids loved, and a swimming pool(though it was closed for winter). We’ll definitely be back, hopefully later this year!

Perfect for Church Camp or Family Reunion
Very relaxing.
The pool was clean when we visited, and was nice and refreshing.
Everything worked, looks like they just redid the putt putt area.

Indian Creek Recreation Area
A close to home family friendly campground
I would like to start by saying this is a campground that is designed for young families, from the multiple sandy beach areas to the playgrounds, there was lot for my elementary age children to do. The bathhouses were cleaned every morning and I didn't see much trash lying around, other than our fire pit, but I assumed the previous tenants must have dumped some of their trash in the pit when leaving. Some of the issues I had are, because this campground is geared toward young families, there were a lot of kids running around unsupervised. There was a group of boys tearing the roof off the play house in one of the play grounds, another group jumping off the fishing pier while people were fishing, little kids driving golf carts around without adults on them (one time almost hitting a lady on a scooter), there were several dogs running around not on leashes, and even adult driving vehicles through the grassy play area rather than the roadway. The rules seem to no be enforced, including the no noise times of 10pm-7am. There were golf carts riding around with loud music until 1:30 am both nights. I never saw a single park attendant, other than the gate operator. We will likely try camping here again, but perhaps during the week while schools are in session to avoid the crowds.
