Nice campground/park in the woods. Spots for camping are placed far enough apart that you don't feel like the neighbors are right there. Spots vary with amenities (water/electric) there is a dump station and restrooms throughout. The park has great trails to hike/bike and explore. There is a pond for fishing/swimming/kayaking which is nice. The park overall is well maintained. It is also dog friendly, but again, owners need to be kept on a leash as too many let their dogs run free!! KEEP YOUR DOGS ON A LEASH, you are not special!!!!

This is a magnificent park. This park has many path. The path with view to the lake it’s amazing. It’s very clean, so it seems that is maintained well. There are not many trash cans around the park, but it was manageable. We were able to find one on our path. It has many sections with picnic tables. Our dog 🐶 loves this park.

Quiet campground. Lots of pine trees = beautiful and falling acorns and pine cone sky bombs. 😅 There is a LOT of variation in tent-only campsites here. Some are level, some are not. Some are extremely tiny (these are indicated in reserveamerica's descriptions), and some have a lot of space. Bathrooms were clean. Our tent site had several tiny pieces of litter (parts of granola bar wrappers, bottle caps, etc). We picked up as much as we saw to "leave it better". Firewood doesn't come with starters but it was fun to make our own. Camper beach is extremely shallow, less than waist high.

I've been camping here for the past couple of years now and it's been great. Had an issue with electricity at my site once and the staff was able to help and got another site for me.

Wow, Cranberry bog! Can’t get more local/regional then that and you don’t need any more reason then that to visit. No charge to just walk or bike the trails. 6 mile loop (and mostly flat) is perfect for a good stretch of the legs. Points off for the lack of signage along the trails. Struggled a bit to stay on the right path.
