Skillet Creek Campground

The swimming pond opened in 2023! Very nice with sandy beach! Jumping pillow, catch and release pond(needs landscaping work) Playground. You will not get any tv reception, there is no WIFi. The game room and laundry is upstairs in the barn. They should not have laundry facilities"upstairs" Maybe this will change with new owners/improvements. They need to add a playground near the pond as well. It's quite a distance from some sites. Black top roads would also be nice for children riding bikes and people like me using a walker to get around. We camped at Skillet Creek Campground in a Travel Trailer.

We camped here because the reviews were good. We didn’t lock our site. We chose a seasonal site so we were moved. I feel they could have let us know it was seasonal and given us the option of a different site but they chose it for us. We would not have chosen this site. The hook ups are on the wrong side so we had to back in sideways to make it work. With the camper sideways the back is only a foot from the pop out bed on the camper behind us and the camper next to us is close with a storage shed and a large electric box between the shed and our camper. We had to park our truck almost into another site to get off the street. Will not recommend or come back. Very disappointed!!

If you’re looking for a casual family friendly campground with lots of amenities and activities for kids, this place is for you. Unfortunately, as a tent camper, secluded primitive sites won’t be found here. You’ll be hearing the rustling of other campers, screams from playing children, and loud music playing up to 10pm.

I imagine it would be fun as a family camping trip, but as a couple looking to getaway from the busy life, solitude was not found here.

As far as the primitive sites go, the sites are too close together and hardly anything covering between so you can see/hear everything your tent camping neighbors are doing.

The ground was unkept on our site, making tent placement difficult and unable to lay the tent flat.

This reservation was a last minute decision since devils lake campground was completely booked. It did the job. A bit pricey for the experience though.
