Eight gravel tent pads occupy a peninsula on Grenada Lake, where the US Army Corps of Engineers converted part of a day-use area into this primitive campground in 2018. Each site includes a picnic table and grill, with a central water spigot serving all campers. The flush toilet restroom lacks showers, though nearby Corps facilities provide that amenity.
Water views extend from every campsite across the lake, with swimming areas flanking the campground on both sides. CJ W. notes "all sites have a water view" from this lakefront location. A group fire pit with picnic table serves the entire campground, while individual campfires must use the provided grills.
The access road sees occasional traffic from day users and locals, particularly during evening hours when some visitors use the area as a turnaround point. Several campers report being alone during their stays, especially in cooler months. The gate at the entrance displays camping-only signage, though enforcement appears inconsistent. Wild dogs occasionally scavenge the area, making proper food storage essential.
For those planning trips in the region, places to camp around Grenada provide additional Corps-managed options within the lake area. Reserve in advance during summer months when usage increases significantly.
