Dillon Bass Lake

Accessible directly off I-95, this privately-managed campground provides full hookups for RVs with 30 and 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections. Sites include picnic tables and fire pits, with basic amenities like restrooms, showers, and a dump station available on-site.

Despite its name referencing bass fishing, reviewers note the absence of nearby bass fishing opportunities, with the closest water body being Betsy Jackson Bay rather than a traditional lake. The campground's proximity to the interstate creates significant road noise that campers consistently mention, though the owner has indicated plans to address this with landscaping barriers. For extended stays or regional exploration, visitors can find campgrounds around Dillon for additional options. Reservations are accepted, and pets are welcome on-site.

Campers regularly cited the level, well-landscaped sites and helpful owner as major strengths. Road noise from I-95 was noted as the primary concern, though the convenient highway access and nearby dining options were appreciated.

Much more than expected

Bass Lake was at the right place for an overnight right off of I-95. Although right next to I-95, the drone of the traffic fades into the background once you pull into the well landscaped campground (Bass Lake as the setting of a wooden campground) with absolutely level sites. Staff and owner were wonderful - and what I learned about coffee from the owner (Frizzy's Coffee House) is why I'm going to route every trip possible through Dillon in the future - more knowledgeable than any barista I've ever met, I experienced what coffee ROASTED the day before tastes like!

Fun Intro To Full Time RVing

We were in Dillon for about three months, and loved the people running this place. The owner was super nice, helped us a few times.

We spent a lot of time chatting with multiple people that worked here about full timing, and they were a huge help.

They're constantly working on new things and that's awesome, we got new tables/benches and some other neat things for the campground while we were there. Sadly we missed the new dog park being built!

Only complaint is the massive road noise. However, the owner says they're working on something to block that noise out this year via shrubbery or walls.

The surrounding town is surprisingly good for food, not so much for entertainment. Unless you love fireworks. I've never seen so many firework places in my life!

Where’s the Bass? What A Minute, Where’s the Lake?!

Let’s start off with the name of this joint – Dillon Bass Lake Camp Ground. First of all, there’s no lake near this place, save Betsy Jackson Bay, which isn’t a lake, it’s a Bay, which is weird, because last time I checked, a bay is an inlet of water from a nearby ocean. And while there’s a nearby (Atlantic) ocean, there’s no inlet, which, um, makes it a lake, right? So even if we gave this campground the benefit of the doubt that they might be somewhat near (not at, mind you) a lake, I asked the good folks near Betsy Jackson Bay if there was bass that could be caught there and they laughed at me saying that there isn’t any bass to be caught anywhere around Dillon (the nearby town), so I’m doubly confused. Add to that, they refer to their locale as a Camp Ground – but spell it with 2 words. I mean, it’s 1 word, right? Campground. Alright, nomenclature aside, this camp ground is located right of the I95 corridor, so for anyone going up and down this major artery, accessing this place is pretty easy. Add to that, you’re right near a small little town – there’s plenty of options to get supplies, shop and eat at a restaurant if you want to. The campground has all the basic amenities: 30 / 50 amp hookups along with water and sewage lines. There’s picnic tables and BBQ pits too. Somewhat spacious as this spot is kind of in the country (albeit a stone’s throw from I95 nonetheless). Insider’s tip? If you get tired of cooking in your RV kitchen or oven open fire, the nearby town of Dillon has some culinary surprises that I wasn’t prepared for. To begin, they have a few spots that really stand out: 1) Southern Fried for, well, everything that you would expect to be fried (chicken, fish (yeah, I asked, no bass!) and even some things that shouldn’t be fried; 2) Papa Tom’s Drive In Restaurant (burgers, sandwiches and more fried stuff); but the star of the show is; 3) La Oaxaquena Tienda & Taqueria. I simply couldn’t believe I found a little spot that specializes in arguably some of the best food from all of Mexico in Oaxaca. All these spots were great, so give them a try.

Happy Camping!
