Very well cared for and very friendly host!

@maryw3172749 · Camped on Oct 28, 2024 at Campsite #26

Loved having full hook ups and concrete pad, and the sites had plenty of space and nice trees. Need to have recycling and lots were not level. Would definitely camp here again.

The campground was fantastic. Great, wide sites and the concrete pads offer plenty of parking for rig and cars. The mature trees were in peak fall colors and the trails on the grounds were terrific. Our site didn't have much AT&T service, but many of the sites nearby had reasonable service. We had a great time and will come back.

Fishing on MTL is great.

Second stay & we loved it again! We love the concrete updated sites & small size of the campground. This time we walked the loop trail daily with our pupthe fall trees were so lovely. The camp hosts are helpful & nice. Only downside was that we stayed near the bathroom to accommodate our friends who have a smaller camper & the lights outside the bathroom were very bright throughout the night.

Site was beautiful with views of the woods and the lake. Only disappointment is that there is no playground for younger kids.

Very nice campground, well kept and seems to have been recently updated. Nice concrete pads, many have double wide pad for parking. Some sites have a grade not suitable for larger rv.

@JanetP1353317 · Camped on Oct 14, 2024 at Campsite #41

The campsites were really nice.

@LarryC9717147 · Camped on Oct 7, 2024 at Campsite #34

We met some friends here and stayed for 6 nights. It looks as if the park has been upgraded to FHUs at every site which is fantastic. The only down side is the number of unlevel sites. We were in a 36 and even with our back tires off the ground, we couldnt get level. It was also unlevel side to side. Looking around, it was hard to find a site that did look level.

@DeniseP3039167 · Camped on Oct 6, 2024 at Campsite #51

Love the clean concrete pads and fire pits

@ShawnJC67C7270 · Camped on Oct 4, 2024 at Campsite #47A

Great site, good view, new pads.

@LarryP2778475 · Camped on Sep 24, 2024 at Campsite #30

We love this park!!

@LarryA7152409 · Camped on Sep 17, 2024 at Campsite #18

Nice campground. Tuesday, 9/17/2024 - Thursday, 9/19/2024. We had the entire loop to ourselves. Very quiet with little to no cell service. We enjoyed riding bikes throughout the campground although, the roads were rough from recent construction. The shooting range was only a couple of miles from camp. Several campers rolled in Thursday night - probably much busier on the weekends. We would probably stay again.

@GarrisonH73096 · Camped on Sep 13, 2024 at Campsite #1

Very nice COE park, newly remodeled with concrete pads and full hook ups. Close to everything around Mark Twain Lake. The fishing pond and trails and everything is really neat. Very easy weekend out with the kids. Will be back!

@JayG9737354 · Camped on Sep 13, 2024 at Campsite #31

The park attendant with the white truck with the veteran sign on his left fender was super nice! (sorry, I could not remember the gentleman's name.) The camp sites are spacious, well thought out. One of the best camp spots I have been to. All the land and trails, along with a big lake. So many things to do in this area, and this spot is perfect for it all. We will try and come back!

@RobinS8336598 · Camped on Sep 11, 2024 at Campsite #47B

The park was clean and nice. Check in was easy. Staff was friendly and helpful. The trails were nice.

@RYANB8651630 · Camped on Sep 6, 2024 at Campsite #29

The new concrete sites are amazing and perfect!!

@AshleyF6916615 · Camped on Sep 5, 2024 at Campsite #66

I always like camping here the bathrooms and shower house are always clean and everyone I've met so far is friendly! The stalls and horse trails are well kept.

@KELLYO7C6B2F9C · Camped on Aug 30, 2024 at Campsite #35

We really enjoy the sites that have the double wide concrete pour.

@BurnettVF86EDF · Camped on Aug 30, 2024 at Campsite #26

New renovations to park were very nice enjoyed my stay very nice

@AndrewT9982192 · Camped on Aug 29, 2024 at Campsite #47A

We were close to a trail that takes you to the water. We could see the water from this campsite. I love the new concrete pads, and the full hook up was a good bonus.

@RoxanneTCA281E · Camped on Aug 23, 2024 at Campsite #18

Just a one night but great campsite. Very clean restroom. Would stay here again but passing through this trip.

@SharonWB152427 · Camped on Aug 22, 2024 at Campsite #35

Beautiful sites. Full hook-up. Great experience. Well be back.

@CharlotteA5DE7 · Camped on Aug 22, 2024 at Campsite #28

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!!!
