The campsites are very well maintained. Each site has a covered table, a firepit that is on concrete and rock driveways. The roads are asphalt and the entire park is clean. There are numerous bathrooms and shower facilities available. This is a great venue and I highly recommend!

Very nice site, although the bathrooms need updating. It rained a lot while we were there so that dampened the enjoyment of the week end.

We enjoyed our stay here and will be back so peaceful and quiet. The caretakers were very friendly.The Carrs

I've seen the most beautiful sunsets in Kansas while camping on Marion Reservoir!

So sad. Photo of campsite showed 2 trees. There were none. No trees means no shade. The water was contaminated, so could not drink it, shower in it or cook with it. You guys usually publish an Alert when the camp has a water problem. Would definitely not stopped here under these circumstances.
@JohnA1386005 · Camped on Oct 16, 2024 at Campsite #24
Showers was locked up.

What a beautiful view of the lake
@jeffreys172959 · Camped on Oct 11, 2024 at Campsite #21
Spot 21 was way to small for our 30 ft camper could not fit in this supposedly 35 ft spot. We had to buy another spot. Please check spots and reevaluate descriptions. We wouldn't like a refund since the page wasn't allowing us to cancel
@JustinS6067631 · Camped on Oct 10, 2024 at Campsite #105
Excellent campground with real clean facilities and outstanding fishing.
@SteveD9647307 · Camped on Oct 6, 2024 at Campsite #89
Loved the campground but was disappointed that men's showers worked so poorly. It was a stain on an otherwise very nice experience.
@SteveB8760E1DC · Camped on Sep 23, 2024 at Campsite #120
Site was well maintained, hook-ups functioned as they should.Park Rangers are outstanding, they regularly patrol the area and keep a watchful eye out.

Love this site

Very nice camping area. Well kept. Can't wait to go back
@JenC2096087 · Camped on Sep 18, 2024 at Campsite #47
Great view of water, plenty of space between campsites, quiet setting with beautiful trees. Nicely groomed paths and clean facilities- recommend it 100%!
@RonG70936A823D · Camped on Sep 16, 2024 at Campsite #32
Very nice campsite. Be aware that both bathrooms were locked.
@KennethV242091 · Camped on Sep 15, 2024 at Campsite #98
With a camp host this would help improving getting campsites. There was no camp host at Cottonwood Point. Making reservations is an issue for some camp site you have to wait four days before you want the site. Then there were camp sites reserved but no one were using them. This is a great camping area on Marion and we like to camp there with our friends.
@JohnW6002125 · Camped on Sep 15, 2024 at Campsite #100
Everything was fine.
@JeremyS8080381 · Camped on Sep 12, 2024 at Campsite #42
Great spot on Marion Reservoir. Site 42 was a little steep, front to back which made leveling the camper a little tiresome but all in all, its a great spot with great access to the water!!
@EvelynHEB036FE · Camped on Sep 11, 2024 at Campsite #34
Main restroom totally closed and has been for some time.
@AudreyC5355771 · Camped on Sep 6, 2024 at Campsite #163
Great site, shade all day.
@Stephanie78186 · Camped on Sep 6, 2024 at Campsite #88

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!!!
