Anson Wright Memorial Park

This place is nice for it's location-far away from pretty much everything. It's quiet and shaded and has a few good amenities like bathrooms, showers, park, and fishing pond. A great place to relax.

Anson Wright Park Campground was a very challenging campground to review, and that's because depending on what section you are in really affects the rating.  I gave it an overall score of 3, but be warned sections can run from zero stars to five stars.  So this will be a detailed review rating almost campsite by campsite.  To start the host of this campground was supper friendly, the campground has play ground and large grass area that the kids can play at.  A small fishing pond is at one end of the campground.  The campground has showers.  Use the restrooms at the "visitor center"  or at the ADA site, do not, and I mean do not attempt to use the outhouses.

The break down by sites.

Sites D1 and D2, the end of the campground near the fishing pond.  These two sites are on a hill above the fishing pond and have lots of room, no to little grass and dusty, picnic tables and fire pits - 3 stars

Site D3 just below D1 and D2, small area next to BBQ area, no fire ring, has a picnic table small parking area, site is right along the campground road. Site is not flat and is bumpy 2-stars.

Site D4, not sure where this one is, should be next to BBQ area, no sign indicating the site, no clear parking area, not flat, no fire pit. 1-star.

Site D5, marking parking area, no fire pit, not table, no place to place a tent except on the edge of the gravel road, OK for an RV. 1-star

Site D6, No clear parking area, grass area for a tent, no fire pit or table, right next to welcome sign. 2-stars

D7, No clear parking area, no fire pit, no table, grassy area for a tent. 2-stars

D8, never found it, 0-stars

D9, just up from the visitor center, decent spot.  Fire ring and table 3-stars

F7 though F10 get a 2-star.  F8 & F10 have tables, F10 and may F9 have fire rings.  F7 & F8 listed a ADA site, but not really, no fire ring or table.

D22 just a table in the grass, no parking area 1-star

G2 and G3, decent sites but right on top of each other, table and fire ring, 3-stars

F5 and G1, right on top of each other, only one has a fire ring but can't tell which site it is for. 2- stars

F12 Big spot all by its self 4-stars

F13 through F19, pretty much just a gravel parking area with tables and fire rings 2-stars

F20 at the edge of the area for F13-19, but it has lots of grass, 3-stars

D23 through D25, grassy area with one table, no clear area to park, not really marked 1/2-star

D17 though D21, a Big negative star rating, do not reserve these, no access, overgrown, only one table in area, unable to find where the sites are, not maintained and appears to be area used to burn brush.

The 5-star sites are sites numbers F1 though F4, these are large roomy drive through sites, you got an RV then these are the sites you want, up on hill above everyone.

Would I stay here again, yes, but only if i knew I could get a good site, otherwise I will head down the road.

First appearance very rustic, but there are many full hookup sites. Made reservations but when we arrived found campers squatting in our spot. Camp host had become ill and was not present. Called the county and they handled the matter swiftly. We were given another site along with a site for friends that joined us.

A little fishing pond with small trout jumping. Very quiet and lovely campground.
