Point Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Managed by the Army Corps of Engineers, Point Campground sits at the tip of a peninsula jutting into Raystown Lake, within the Raystown Recreation Area. The layout includes both waterfront and interior sites, with the ridge loop positioned back from the water but still within reach of the lake and its activity. Sites run large and wooded, and campers consistently note the sense of privacy even when the campground is at capacity.

Water access is a defining feature here. The campground draws boaters, and the lake views from waterfront sites face open water with boat traffic visible throughout the day. Kristen H. describes it as "right on the tip of the Raystown peninsula," which captures the exposure to the lake that sets these sites apart. Mountain biking is also well-established within the campground grounds, and pop-up campers have found the sites workable. Electric and water hookups are available, along with showers and a dump station.

One practical note: sites are terraced on slopes, and the walk to the bathrooms involves a steep incline. Campers with mobility concerns should confirm site specifics when booking. The bathrooms and showers have drawn consistent praise for their upkeep. Nearby, Valley Campground and Seven Points provide additional options within the same recreation area. Reservations are available and recommended, particularly for waterfront sites in summer.

Good paid option

Nice campground, level site, very clean. (Here early in season though!) $40/night. Lost a star for the long and steep incline walk to the bathrooms. Accessibility note: Careful if you have mobility issues. Many of the sites are terraced and require using steps.

5 star bathrooms and well maintained sites

The campsites are beautiful, even though there were a lot of people when we went we felt like we had a lot of privacy from our neighbors. We stayed in the ridge loop, so not waterfront but within the campground there were so many things to do (huge mountain biking scene). The whole grounds were very well maintained, and the bathrooms and showers were some of the nicest I’ve seen at a campground. Highly recommend!

Great family spot

We love camping here as a family of 3. We have a small pop up and it’s pop up friendly.
