Beautiful Swimming Beach Lily Lake

Primitive tent camper, camped about 18 days at $21/day no hookups. Accessed water for washing dishes and such behind the second set of bathouse when office was closed. Not suitable for drinking. Office hours are not regular, but they are very easy to get ahold of if you call the office number. The family that owns and manages the campground is rather accommodating. The campground has a lot of regular seasonal RV campers, most of which are extremely friendly. I camped at the primitive/rustic sites along the beach, which are just a few and segregated from the rest of the pack. I had it to myself (with my almost 2-year-old son) most of the time, with the exception of Fourth of July. It was no big deal to utilize the two or three sites all to myself so long as I was able to move my stuff out of the way if another camper came along. You will hear the noise of the lake and children playing and bickering during the day on the water, but when everybody else is tucked away in bed you get the best view of the sky and it's quiet. It was a great spot to camp while it was really hot, in the 90s for several days, because you could just walk right over to the beach and take a dip in the lake. The sites on the beach were also shaded. In June and early July you will hear the intense loud sounds of a ton of bullfrogs at night, and it's pretty awesome. The bugs are on steroids there, so arrive with a plan to combat them on your stay (they laugh in the face of cheap repellents.) Can't wait to have another stay at Camelot!
