Great place to disconnect!

Gerald Freeman Campground is a GREAT place to get away if you are looking to disconnect. There is NO SERVICE of any kind up here! We have a powerful WeBoost on our RV and STILL no bars. There are a few places you can move around to and maybe get 1 bar, but they are hard to find. Starlink works great though, and once established you can use WiFi calling for your phone. The scenery is beautiful here, and you almost have to look straight up to see the sky because you are surrounded by mountains. The lake/creek/river(I'm not sure which it is because it says lake, but it has a slight current) runs directly by the campsites and there is easy access for fishing, kayaking, and other aquatic activities. The campground itself is SUPER clean, and so are the shower houses. The sites are level and well maintained. Some sites have full hookups(W/S/E), while others have W/E, electric only, and primitive. Make sure you know what you are booking so you don't get surprised. Some of the nicest sites are electric only. There is a little store on the property for a few essentials, but it is small with limited selection. Our water pressure at our site was very low, only around 20 lbs, so we had to rely on our pump and tank, but we could at least fill it so it was a non-issue for us. We are a full-time RV family, traveling the country with our three dogs, and we will be staying here again in the future. It's a safe, clean campground with everything that you need and a GREAT family atmosphere!

Water access anytime

Bring a kayak or tube to have easy access the the water right on the campground! Spaces had plenty of room to spread out. It takes about 20 minutes to get to stores so make sure you’re prepared. There is a store on property for things you’ve forgotten though. Signs say no alcohol on the lake. We brought alcohol to our campsite and on the lake without anyone saying anything though.

Nice stay on a busy weekend

Even though we didn’t get a waterfront site, we did get a nice site #119. Very secluded and quiet. Walking distance to the marina where there is a nice general store. Super friendly . Boat rentals available . Nice getaway in a beautiful part of the country.

Would Definitely Go Back

Nice campground that sits on a beautiful lake. There’s a lot of stuff for kids to do and the local marina rents out pontoon boats as well. The shower houses were very clean as well. Each site has its own fire ring available.
