Nice and clean spot by the lake

Stayed right at the lake for one night with my small RV. No hookups, but ok if self contained. Campspots are spread apart enough that running generators from other campers ( it was a hot day) weren’t to noisy.

Tough Creek camp ground

Gravel and sand sites with concrete slab and shade for picnic table. No or very little shade. Lots of ants and mosquitoes.

Cooled off nice at night and very quiet for our stay mid week. Pit toilet , no showers but available fresh water.

Tough Creek Loop

This site has multiple campgrounds. You have to reserve them online through Reserveamerica.com, and it is NOT an easy site to navigate. Otherwise, we were driving through & this was an excellent spot for the kids to cool off in the water & spend the night. There were trees for some shade. It has vault toilets & a water pump. Campsite has a nice tent pad, firering, & picnic table. There were bugs, but we were not bothered by mosquitoes. Sunset & sunrise were beautiful!
