Solid campground - maps incl here

I couldn’t find much information on this campground online, so trying to fill in some of those gaps for others.

Some sites are close to each other, some are more spread out - see attached map. The ones you need to walk to (3-7) aren’t far - I wish I noticed them when I drove by.

You do hear highway traffic from the site at the turnaround point (#12), but I liked that it was away from other.

Note that you can connect to Lakeview Trail from the campground. The trailhead is by #3-7. From #12 to the lake, it was 1.3 miles and a moderate hike.

You’ll find firewood on Burr Oak Road just to the west of the entrance, on the north side of the street.

Will return

Great campground with super easy access to the trail and lake. The sites are spread apart enough so you aren’t right beside someone - and shaded. Well prepared sites with a clearing, fire ring, and a picnic table. Nice host and rangers too! Bathrooms were meh: the walls need cleaned or painted, no where to put your things, and there was no hand soap - no biggie though.

Pretty good

Large wooded campground with over 300 spots. The staff is super helpful, the park has nice facilities for trash, recycling, firewood, water, and ice. The bathrooms are in good shape but need more cleaning during heavy weekend use. At times they were bad enough I would have preferred to squat outside. The individual sites are well laid out and kept in good shape with picnic tables and fire rings. Access to a trail from the campground.

Everything you need

While an RV park, you can also tent camp with the amenities, making it really nice. Electrical hookups and water at your site, plus clean bathrooms and a shower house on the property. It's also a quiet area and everyone is very respectful. The highway traffic can be a little loud in the morning if you're on that side of the property, but who wants to sleep when there are trails to hit! The owner was very friendly and available when needed. Fire rings and firewood are available too. We were there for the Rivers, Trails, and Ales Festival and it was perfect. It's right on the river so we made a stop at camp while on a paddling trip. Awesome! Will return next year!
