Nice shade, close to bathrooms (so a fair amount of foot traffic near site). I would pick the site again.
@MaryS3622227 · Camped on Jul 14, 2024 at Campsite #PB28
We love the location and how well kept the grounds are. We would like to suggest more 50 amp sites.

Unfortunately, the area around our campsite hadn't been mowed for awhile. We heard they're having difficulty in finding people to mow.

Everything was great except the picnic tables at all sites, the boards are weather beaten, warped and/or broken.

First camping trip with a new travel trailer. Good lot with very little leveling needed.
@DanielW5233823 · Camped on May 24, 2024 at Campsite #PC78
Clean and spectacular views of the lake.
@RobertB6182770 · Camped on Sep 28, 2023 at Campsite #PC75
Needs more shade trees
@AmyC3583814 · Camped on Sep 12, 2023 at Campsite #R4
The site was great we were off grid and a little off by ourselves so peaceful. Bathrooms are nice except the lights are on a motion timer and it always would go off just as I was getting dressed, so if after sundown was really dark! Another 5 minutes and it would have been fine.
@DougO2441236 · Camped on Aug 28, 2023 at Campsite #PC71
Camping during the week is always quiet. Camp host were extremely pleasant. Will be back.
@KenN1774640 · Camped on Aug 18, 2023 at Campsite #PA3
Site was covered with small flies. Party with loud music ran until 10pm, then a large, loud group finally broke up around 12am, but a couple of guys continued to talk and laughing loudly thru most of the night!
@SarahC1505024 · Camped on Aug 10, 2023 at Campsite #PB33
The women's bathroom was filled with a variety in insects. There were multiple spider webs in the shower. While I enjoyed the nature show, it was pretty gross. I had to wipe the dead gnats off the bench before I could put my stuff down. But our site was nice, the view was nice.
@ByronWC18B2B98 · Camped on Aug 5, 2023 at Campsite #R4
Great view with access to a great spot by the lake.
@DavidO4885909 · Camped on Jul 28, 2023 at Campsite #PA4
Arrived at the RV campground to find out that the site we had stayed at 3 weeks prior, was now listed as a different site.Initially made reservations for a site we stayed at last year. Arrived at the RV campground, and "they" had changed the numbers on the sites.Well, ok...(not really). Found the "new" location of old site we had reserved, and it was good, so no problem. Decided to book that site again for 3 weeks later and guess what? Site numbers had changed again, site we had reserved was now somewhere else.Explanation you ask? The campground was told to move the site number to reflect the locations as depicted on Recreation.gov. Recreation.gov did not inform anyone, causing major problems for the attendants at the park, as well as the Park Rangers there.If you have reservations made, don't count on your site being the same as the last time you were there!!They might somewhere else, any there is not one thing you can do about it.
@MartinD2108566 · Camped on Jul 21, 2023 at Campsite #PA6
Beautiful views and great amount of space in our site. Only complaint is there were swarms of gnats, but oh well.
@JoeB9521197 · Camped on Jul 11, 2023 at Campsite #PB57
Tree limbs need to be cut 14 foot from the ground so people can get their campers in there spot trees scraped the side of my camper and I’m not happy if I come back I will bring my saw to cut them down so I can enjoy my stay. The bathhouse needs to be painted as it looks bad. Corp needs to spray for the bugs moths flies and nates as you can’t set outside and enjoy your stay
@VanitaHB5B92B6 · Camped on Jul 6, 2023 at Campsite #PB47
Nice camping spots with good shade in most of spots. Excellent playground for kids. Very friendly and helpful volunteers there who try to help you had a good experience there. One of our favorite campgrounds
@SherylMD5CFC7A · Camped on Jun 25, 2023 at Campsite #PB48
We love our camping experience here, our whole family goes and we love the lake water and the camp sites are great.
@jonathandE3D58 · Camped on Jun 12, 2023 at Campsite #PC65
Always on our list of stops on our annual trip. Beautiful, well maintained place. Sometimes the wind can blow hard, but it is Kansas right. Beautiful lake.
@SherriP852AFBE · Camped on Jun 9, 2023 at Campsite #E7
Perfect place to watch the sunset and sunrise everyday. Beautiful view of the lake. Our favorite spot
@SherriP852AFBE · Camped on Jun 9, 2023 at Campsite #E9

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
